A lively, hand-drawn print face with a consistent backward slant and energetic, uneven rhythm. Strokes are thick with subtle contrast and many terminals end in pointed, wedge-like cuts, giving letters a slightly chiseled, cut-paper look. Counters are compact and often asymmetrical; curves are not perfectly round, and straights wobble just enough to feel human. Proportions vary from glyph to glyph, with narrow, tall capitals and lowercase forms that keep a steady, readable x-height while maintaining irregular widths and lively spacing.
Best suited for display settings such as posters, titles, packaging accents, and short headlines where its jagged terminals and backward slant can be appreciated at size. It also works well for themed uses—spooky, fantasy, or playful contexts—while remaining legible in short bursts of text.
The overall tone feels mischievous and storybook-like, balancing readability with a deliberately off-kilter personality. Its sharp terminals and backward lean add a hint of eerie, magical flair, while the handmade irregularities keep it friendly and informal rather than severe.
The design appears intended to mimic quick, confident marker or brush lettering that’s been sharpened into angular, wedge-ended forms. It aims to deliver a distinctive, characterful voice—intentionally imperfect and dynamic—while keeping letterforms recognizable for practical display typography.
Uppercase forms show strong, graphic silhouettes with angular joints, while lowercase letters keep a simple printed construction rather than connected script. Numerals follow the same tilted, carved-terminal language, reading clearly while retaining the font’s quirky, handcrafted motion.
