The right way is to use an image, with an adequate alt text (e.g., alt="D",
depending on language), or to use the Unicode characters for chess pieces:
&#x2655; white queen
&#x265b; black queen

Thank you for trying to help, but I don't quite understand what I'm
supposed to do.

How can I make use of the "&#x2655;" white queen character?
I need it to something like:
Square = "&#x2655";
Is this correct?

Can you please show a simple example of what needs to be coded in
order to assign the queen to a variable?

You just put &#x2655 where you want a queen to appear. If it is
in a paragraph, then

<p>Here is a picture of a queen: &#x2655. And here is another
one: &#x2655. And yet another: &#x2655. Here are 3 in a row:
&#x2655 &#x2655 &#x2655</p>

If in a table cell, then similar...

Have you solved the problem of The Missing King yet?
