The Bishop
The bishop moves up and down along diagonals. Each side has a
light-squared bishop and a dark-squared bishop. They both move along
their respective diagonals in any direction as many squares as you
want. However, bishops cannot move over other pieces like knights
can.
Try it out below! In the applet switch to set up mode and clear
the board. Select a bishop from the piece selection menu and place
it on the board. Play around with it moving it along all the
diagonals.
