What 🩒 means
A piece that combines rook moves with knight jumps.
A rook moves straight; a knight jumps in an L. The game defines both moves for this piece.
Carrera’s 1617 larger-board variant called it the Champion; later names include marshal and empress.
Why does the symbol show as a box?
A font without this glyph may show a box or fallback mark.
🩒 is a text character for specialist chess notation. Fonts may draw it differently or show a box if unsupported. A chess diagram needs a font with Chess Symbols.

1Why does 🩒 show as a box on some devices?
Because that device's fonts have no glyph for it. The character is still correct and still copies correctly — the box is a missing glyph, not a broken character.
