Unicode details

꒱ is the Unicode character named YI RADICAL VEP, code point U+A4B1, in the Yi Radicals block. It was added in Unicode 3.0 in 1999, and Unicode classes it as a symbol (general category So).

It is not an emoji, so it keeps the colour and size of the text around it.

It comes from the Yi Radicals block, which some fonts leave out, so a few older devices may show an empty box.
