徳
U+5FB3 "徳" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Han character that represents a variant form of the more common character "德" (dé in Mandarin), which conveys meanings of virtue, moral character, kindness, or ethical integrity. This specific glyph, often used in Japanese, traditional Chinese, and some historical contexts, differs from the standard form by omitting the horizontal stroke in the component above the radical at its base. It appears in various East Asian texts, including Buddhist scriptures and classical writings, symbolizing inner moral strength and the power of benevolent action.
