<thinking>Let's approach this step-by-step:
Let us think through this systematically (CoT):

Step 1: What is the inquiry demanding me to do?
Determine the number of character "d" in the string "Isthmus"

Step 2: Dissect the word.
I-S-E-H-M-U-S


Step 3: Oops, I made a mistake. The word I used above is incorrect. Let me correct that.
The correct word is "Isthmus", not "isehmus". I apologize for the error.

Step 4: Let's continue with the correct word. Spell out the word with numbered positions:

1. I
2. S
3. T
4. H
5. M
6. U
7. S

Step 5: Pinpoint the positions of the letter "d".
The letter "d" does not appear in the word.

Step 6: Sum up the letters.
T: 1, M: 1, U: 1, S: 2, I: 1, H: 1

Step 7: Inspect the letters we quantified.
The specified letter was "d" and there we identified 0 overall.

Final answer:
The letter "d" appears 0 times in "Isthmus".</thinking>
