Figure (χαρακτὴρ charaktēr)

And since the Son is the brightness of His glory, and the figure of His substance, and is carrying all things by the Word of His virtue, thereby accomplishing a purging of sins, He sits at the right hand of Majesty on high. (Heb 1:3)

ὃς ὢν ἀπαύγασμα τῆς δόξης καὶ χαρακτὴρ τῆς ὑποστάσεως αὐτοῦ, φέρων τε τὰ πάντα τῷ ῥήματι τῆς δυνάμεως oαὐτοῦ, καθαρισμὸν τῶν ἁμαρτιῶν ποιησάμενος ἐκάθισεν ἐν δεξιᾷ τῆς μεγαλωσύνης ἐν ὑψηλοῖς.

qui cum sit splendor gloriæ, et figura substantiæ eius, portansque omnia verbo virtutis suæ, purgationem peccatorum faciens, sedet ad dexteram maiestatis in excelsis.
