Each personality gets one and the symbol chosen should have a emoji / Unicode / plaintext (? what would this last one be ?)

Personas compose, same as with other stuff

Symbols: what “plaintext” should mean

For issue #27, I would not create separate unicode and plaintext symbols unless there is an actual canonical ASCII design for every personality.

Use three layers:

emblem {
name "compass"
emoji "🧭"
glyph "⌖"
}
name is the semantic, universally safe fallback.
emoji is the rich graphical rendering.
glyph is the compact text/terminal rendering.

When the glyph cannot be represented safely, renderers output [compass] or a short stable code such as CMP. The semantic name matters more than maintaining elaborate ASCII art.
