Unicode Version 18.0
Source: Browser Default
U+9B56 "魖" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese ideograph used primarily in classical or literary contexts, representing a type of legendary beast or a demonic entity often associated with darkness and chaos in ancient mythology. This character falls under the radical "鬼" (ghost or demon), which underscores its supernatural and ominous connotations. While extremely rare in modern Chinese, Japanese, or Korean usage, it appears in historical texts and dictionaries, symbolizing a malevolent spirit or a creature of the night. Its esoteric nature makes it more of a linguistic artifact than a practical everyday character.
