U+1FA4C "🩌" Black Chess Equihopper Rotated Ninety Degrees Unicode Character

U+1FA4C "🩌" Black Chess Equihopper Rotated Ninety Degrees is a specialized symbol within the Chess Symbols block, representing a chess piece variant used in certain fairy chess problems. This particular figure denotes a black piece that moves like an equihopper, a piece that jumps over an intervening piece and lands on the square immediately beyond it at an equal distance, but the "rotated ninety degrees" aspect indicates its movement pattern is oriented at a right angle relative to the standard equihopper. Its inclusion in Unicode allows for precise textual representation in digital chess notation, puzzles, and diagrams, particularly for enthusiasts and programmers working with non-standard chess variants.
