...but when I log what is being stored (and displayed) it comes out as...
Sysètme Circulatoire
I also tried storing that as a string first, with the same results. It seems the è in the quotes is not being interpreted correctly. Is there some trick I'm missing for these special characters in C#?

The file it's coming from must be saved as UTF-8, and even then I'm not sure if it works when set from code. Try putting it in a text file and loading it from there (use Localization).

Alright, I'll give that a try. I do have to eventually get text reading from a text file anyways, so it might as well be now.

We've had the same problem (Umlauts showing up as "??"), and since loading from a text file wasn't an option, I've tried a few things and was able to get unicode characters assigned from code to work. The trick seems to be to save the .cs file containing the code using UTF-16 encoding. You can do so by choosing "Save as" in Monodevelop. Hope that helps someone.
