I know you've had some answers but if you want exactly what you
specified in LaTeX, the following will do it:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
* intro
This is a list
- @@latex:[\(\checkmark\)]@@ and so on
- normal item
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---


(I don't have Checkmark defined so used checkmark instead)
