A sharp, angular display face built from faceted wedges and knife-like strokes. Forms are highly irregular, with pointed terminals, abrupt direction changes, and frequent cut-ins that create a broken, chiseled silhouette. Counters are small and often diamond- or slit-like, and the baseline/sidebearing rhythm feels intentionally unsettled, producing a jittery texture in lines of text. Despite the wild shapes, strokes are consistently solid and the overall construction reads as a cohesive system of shards and spikes.
Best suited for short, high-impact text such as posters, titles, game or fantasy-themed UI labels, and attention-grabbing packaging or merch graphics. It works especially well where an aggressive, hand-carved or shard-like look is desired, and is less appropriate for small sizes or long passages due to its dense, irregular texture.
The font conveys a mischievous, occult-tinged energy—part carved runes, part comic menace. Its spiky geometry and erratic rhythm create a sense of danger and motion, while the exaggerated, stylized letterforms keep it firmly in the realm of playful spectacle rather than seriousness.
The design appears intended to emulate a jagged, carved aesthetic with intentionally unstable letter shapes, prioritizing personality and atmosphere over neutrality. Its cohesive wedge-and-spike construction suggests a deliberate system aimed at creating dramatic, themed typography for expressive display use.
Uppercase and lowercase share the same jagged design language, with many glyphs leaning toward emblematic, symbol-like constructions rather than conventional typographic modulation. Numerals and punctuation adopt the same blade-cut vocabulary, making the set feel unified in display settings but visually busy in continuous reading.
