Reason: More testing needed. Are there other codes that do not follow 437 conventions? If the intended 437 code is used for these irregular symbols, does it still work?
In Qud, there are certain symbols that are used in the game strings that take the form of \u0000
, where 0
is any digit in hexadecimal. In XML, this also takes the form of �
, where the 0
is any digit in hexadecimal (Single digit hexadecimal will not be padded or have trailing 0s Ex: 
). This code does not represent the character in unicode, rather the code page 437 on old IBM pcs.
The game also uses the escape code �
, where 0
is any digit in decimal in its XML files. Below is the table of the entire codepage. For more information, see Wikipedia's own page about Code page 437.

Characters As Rendered In-Game
Example Codes in Qud
To use one of these characters in a name or description in game, you may need to escape them. For instance, to get the ♥, in C# you would use "\x03"
, and in the XML &x03;
.
In most cases, the strings are added with color codes, so here are some examples of that. For more info about Caves of Qud's color code, check out Modding: Colors & Object Rendering.
In Game | String | Usage |
---|---|---|
♥ | {{r|\x03}}
|
HP or Damage |
→ | {{c|\x1a}}
|
Penetration, or slipping |
♦ | {{b|\x04}}
|
Armor value |
¢ | {{C|\x9b}}
|
Cybernetics credit wedge |
In xml:
In Game | String | Usage |

Remarks
You may also see the following escape sequences used in some places. They map indirectly to particular code page 437 values based on their underlying ASCII character value.
In Game | String | Usage | Notes |
---|---|---|---|
ο | {{K|\t}}
|
Dodge symbol | This works because \t stands for the TAB character, which has an ASCII character code of 9. Thus, it maps to code page 437 \x09.
|
• | {{G|\a}}
|
Blocked attack blip (among other things) |
This works because \a stands for the BEL character, which has an ASCII character code of 7. Thus, it maps to code page 437 \x07.
