			EDVAC-tan is depicted as a woman of average height, with medium olive skintone, short, curled silver hair, and silver eyes. Like [[ENIAC \| ENIAC-tan]], she is an automaton, though her mechanical traits are less apparent, and doesn't have the exposed wires or sockets of her predecessor.<ref>Refined ideas pioneered in ENIAC.</ref> She wears a 1940s-contemporary dress with a yellow tie, and hat with short black veil, typically disheveled.

	===Personality===		===Personality===
			Her personality reflects ENIAC-tan's pride and primness, without her graciousness or patience. She remains bitterly wounded, although she's gotten better at hiding her regrets she bares her feelings when the conversation turns to her past. Despite her scientific acumen she's less academic than others in her family, instead being hands-on and happiest when she has a practical problem to solve. Despite her achievements she's sabotaged by obsessive tendencies.

	==Relationships and Family==		==Relationships and Family==
			EDVAC-tan has a close, but complicated relationship with ENIAC-tan,<ref>Though EDVAC was directly inspired by ENIAC, it's defined mostly by its differences from its predecessor.</ref> and large, dysfunctional human "family".<ref>EDVAC development committee frequently in conflict.</ref> Initially, she got along with her uncles, but soured after the creation of [[IAS \| IAS-tan]],<ref>von Neumann & Goldstein contributed to EDVAC, but fell out with the team after the First Draft controversy.</ref> with whom she maintains intense one-sided enmity.

			At the BRL she found herself forced to work with [[ORDVAC \| ORDVAC-tan]] and [[BRLESC \| BRLESC-tan]], whom she eventually warmed up to, even if she never fully understood them.

			She is well-regarded and respected in the ordnance computer community, but tends to go unnoticed by the wider world.
