Italicised alphabets and passwords

Can we have italicised alphabets as password characters to increase the password complexity without increasing password length?

Italicised characters do have the same ascii value than regular or bold characters. Only the appearance or formatting is different. This is in most cases not an increase in the amount of available characters. You may use it in special applications, but the input field has to support Rich Text or formatted text in general (reading, writing, comparison), also the data format where you keep the passwords stored.

You can have a seed for each font and add that to character encode the password so that we just have to maintain a look up table with little overhead 👆 This will generate a new ASCII code!!
