Nix Bellevue is a character in UNIVER.SYS. She is a Techne from Logiciel.

History

The first design of Nix was posted on Twitter in August 27, 2022 [1], however she was first published in OS-tans.moe on April 8, 2023.

Character

Nix comes across as easygoing and nonchalant with a rebellious streak. Beyond her work as an idol, she's skilled in programming and advertising, often helping her fellow Techne in Myriad Starters with both coding and promotion. Her design aesthetic features cosmic themes and striking color contrasts against dark backgrounds.

While she appears carefree and unflappable, up to engaging in friendly banters and competition, Nix deeply cherishes her fellow Techne and will go to great lengths to help them.

Trivia

Technical

  • Nix represents Xenix, a Unix distribution by Microsoft from 1980. It was also the most popular Unix system in the 1980s.
  • Her cosmic theme is based on this Unix World magazine cover about Xenix in 1985. [2]
  • Nix's rebellious side is based on Xenix's features, which deviated from the Unix philosophy of modularity.
    • Xenix is also considered a separate Unix distribution, neither belonging to System V or BSD branch of Unix.[3]

Misc

  • Her name is derived from Xenix itself, and Bellevue, the city where Microsoft's headquarters used to be in early to mid 1980s.
    • Depending on the language, Nix's name can also mean "night", "snow", or "nothingness".
  • Nix's occupation as an idol and promoter is a reference to Xenix being a popular Unix distribution in the 1980s, which also include uses in SDF Public Access Unix System[4]
    • SDF is a reference to Super Dimension Fortress Macross series. One of its characters, Lynn Minmay, is the first widely known anime idol singer.
