U+8C8E "貎" CJK Unified Ideograph-# Unicode Character
Unicode Version 17.0
貎
U+8C8E "貎" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that historically represents a mythical or wild beast, often associated with a type of lion-like creature or a fierce animal, and is a variant or older form of the more common character "貌" (mào), which means appearance, looks, or features. In classical texts and contexts, "貎" appears in descriptions of legendary creatures in Chinese mythology, emphasizing its animalistic roots rather than its later semantic shift toward denoting human facial characteristics.
