A distressed, hand-drawn display face with chunky verticals and sharp, tapered terminals that suggest a brush or rough pen. Strokes show pronounced texture and occasional internal cut-ins, giving letters a worn, carved look with irregular edges and ink-trap-like notches. Proportions are compact with a tight footprint, and the rhythm alternates between broad strokes and needle-like thins, creating a lively, uneven color on the line. The lowercase is compact and simplified, while capitals carry more flamboyant, spurred forms; numerals follow the same rough, calligraphic construction.
Best used for short-form display settings such as posters, headlines, book or album covers, game and tabletop titles, and themed packaging where texture and atmosphere are desired. It can also work for pull quotes or section headers, but extended body text may feel busy due to the distressed detailing.
The overall tone feels archaic and theatrical—evoking old manuscripts, tavern signs, or dark fantasy title cards. Its roughened texture adds grit and menace, making it well-suited to spooky or legendary narratives rather than polished modern branding.
The design appears intended to deliver an antique, ink-worn calligraphic flavor with a bold silhouette and dramatic contrast, prioritizing mood and character over smooth uniformity. It aims to read like hand-rendered lettering with deliberate roughness for thematic impact.
Legibility is strongest at medium to large sizes where the distressed details read as intentional texture; at small sizes the internal scratches and narrow joins can visually fill in. The font’s energy comes from consistent, hand-made imperfections and sharp, expressive terminals rather than strict geometric regularity.
