Emoji modifiers[edit]
The Miscellaneous Symbols block has two emoji that represent people or body parts. They can be modified using U+1F3FB–U+1F3FF to provide for a range of human skin color using the Fitzpatrick scale:[7]
U+ | 261D | 26F9 |
emoji | ☝️ | ⛹️ |
FITZ-1-2 | ☝️🏻 | ⛹🏻 |
FITZ-3 | ☝️🏼 | ⛹🏼 |

Additional human emoji can be found in other Unicode blocks: Dingbats, Emoticons, Miscellaneous Symbols and Pictographs, Supplemental Symbols and Pictographs, Symbols and Pictographs Extended-A and Transport and Map Symbols.
History[edit]
In Unicode 1.0 (1991) the same block was named Miscellaneous Dingbats (not to be confused with current "Dingbats" block, which was then renamed to "Zapf Dingbats").[9]
The following Unicode-related documents record the purpose and process of defining specific characters in the Miscellaneous Symbols block:
