U+99EC "駬" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character primarily used in classical or historical contexts, representing a name for a type of fine or swift horse, often referencing a legendary steed from ancient texts. It is composed of the radical 馬 (horse) on the left and the phonetic component 耳 (ear) on the right, suggesting a connection to hearing or agility.
