Ummm, if it's a *console*, isn't it limited to single-byte characters?
That means typically only Latin1 (0-127) and Latin2 (128-255)
characters.  Everything else would be unknown/undisplayable if it's not
in the console font.

It might be smart enough to recognise that it's a multibyte unicode
character, and display it as a *single* '?' char (and not as 2-, 3-, or
4 chars in the sequence), but if it's not in the font itself, it won't
be displayed correctly, just as a placeholder char.
