Person standing: dark skin tone Emoji

People

A full-body figure shown standing in a neutral, upright position. This version features a dark skin tone, reflecting the diversity of human representation in digital communication.

Usage Context

Used to describe someone waiting, being present, or simply standing still. It often appears in casual conversation to signify a sense of idle anticipation or to denote a specific person in a group, often contrasted with action-oriented emojis like 🏃 or 💃.

History

The base character was introduced in Unicode 12.0 in 2019. The dark skin tone variant was made possible through the implementation of the Fitzpatrick scale modifiers, an initiative pushed by the Unicode Consortium to make digital human representations more inclusive and accurate for a global audience.
