A male firstborn:
בן בכור, with vowels: בֵּן בְּכוֹר [ben bekhor]
Or simply בכור, with vowels: בְּכוֹר [bekhor] (not exclusively human)

A female firstborn:
בת בכורה, with vowels: בַּת בְּכוֹרָה [bat bekhora]
Or simply בכורה, with vowels: בְּכוֹרָה [bekhora] (not exclusively human)

What is a Hebrew character?

Do you mean Hebrew letters, perhaps?

Hieroglyphics and languages like Chinese and Japanese have a character to represent a whole word.

Hebrew words consist of letters and not single characters.
