RSX was a family of more than 10 real-time operating systems developed by DEC, created for use on the PDP-11 computer. RSX was noted for being wildly different than other DEC OSs. While it contributed largely to VMS, it's own heritage is vague; most accounts trace its roots to a Bunker-Ramo RW-300 process control system, circa the late 1950s.
RSX-tan is a representation of all the RSX releases; she is a mature woman, with medium-length black hair, often tied in a ponytail, and blue eyes. She often wears a white long coat or split-front dress over a shorter dark red dress, and flat shoes. She carries a backsword and is a skilled swordfighter. She also shows skill with alchemy, the control of air being a specialty.
Her attitude is tough, practical, but with a caring side; She served as a strict yet devoted teacher to the younger generation of DEC-tans.
She was raised by the older generation of DEC-tans, with Batch 11-tan serving as her mother; yet her real ancestors are said to lie in a ancient, almost unknown group, dating back to the late 1950s.
RSX-tan has two daughters: VMS-tan, with whom she is quite close, and Vaxeln-tan; although, her relationship with the later is somewhat distant.
