A special bullet? You mean, something that looks different from the
ordinary bullet as seen in FrameMaker's own templates? 

In general, you create a bulleted paragraph style using the Numbering
tab of the Paragraph designer. The standard bullet character is shown as
\b, but you can substitute any character for it. 
If you want to use a bullet character that is only present in a special
font like Wingdings, you need to create a Character tag that uses this
font, and then select this character tag in the Numbering tab of the
Paragraph designer. 

You can find the procedures for doing this in the FrameMaker help file.
Look for the topics
"Formatting text as bulleted lists", and "Using a designer to change
font properties".
