U+1FA69 "🩩" Xiangqi Black Elephant Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
🩩
U+1FA69 "🩩" Xiangqi Black Elephant is a symbol from the ancient Chinese board game Xiangqi, also known as Chinese chess, representing the black side's elephant piece. In the game, this piece moves exactly two points diagonally, akin to the character "ç”°" (tián), and is restricted to the player's own side of the board, unable to cross the river. Its primary role is defensive, protecting the general and blocking enemy attacks, and it is distinct from the red elephant, which uses a different character in traditional notation but shares identical movement rules.
