What 𗇋 means
It is a subject/agent nominalizer. In plain terms, it makes a verb phrase refer to its doer; with a verb meaning “serve,” the result can be translated “the one who serves.”
The Tangut (Xixia) script was created around 1036 under Li Yuanhao for state-building and Buddhist scripture. Its design drew on Chinese and Khitan writing traditions, but Tangut was a distinct script. Each character represents one syllable, and writing leaves word boundaries unmarked.
A Tangut manuscript from Khara-Khoto probably dates to the 12th or early 13th century; the script remained in use under the Yuan and Ming. These dates describe the script and manuscript, not this individual character’s first appearance.
Scholarly and archival; for discussion of the Tangut language or historical writing.
Is 𗇋 an emoji? No. It is a Tangut text character; a font with Tangut support determines whether it appears.

1Why does 𗇋 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.
