While adding a button that affects character health, i was looking for a character that would represent "heal" At first I was going to use a knights templar shield, like this one: ⛨ but then i thought I should use something without a real world religious symbol on it. but I cannot think of anything besides the caduceas: ☤ but that looks horrible on a button, it is too small and complicated and you can't even tell what it is. Staff of Hermes: ⚚ is even less recognizable The Aesculapius  is slightly easier to see the detail due to only one snake: ⚕ All 3  have the same problem: it's not a snake it's a line, not sure a tiny squiggly line says "heal" Can anyone think of any other symbol? Even if not a utf-8 but a small image, that might work. (max size 20px x 20px, or using 18pt font) So I'm at a loss, the shield still looks the best, but I want to be sure the sheet is inclusive for all players.

The name of that character is "Black Cross on Shield", not "Knights Templar Shield" or anything similar. The cross depicted is not a Christian cross, either; it much more closely resembles the Greek Red Cross, the symbol of the Red Cross organization, which is literally a color-switched version of the Swiss national flag.
