A compact, blackletter-influenced display face with chunky strokes, sharp wedge terminals, and deliberately irregular contours. Letterforms lean on broken curves and faceted, polygonal joins, creating a carved, cut-paper feel rather than smooth calligraphy. Uppercase shapes are tall and emphatic with abrupt notches and tapered points, while lowercase retains a simplified gothic structure with uneven stroke edges and occasional quirky inflections. Counters are tight and angular, spacing is visually lively, and numerals follow the same jagged, beveled logic for a consistent, high-impact texture in text.
Best used for short display settings such as headlines, posters, cover titles, band or event branding, and themed packaging where the jagged gothic flavor can carry the message. It can also work for playful “old tavern” or fantasy-adjacent motifs in signage and promotional graphics, especially when set large.
The overall tone is mischievous and medieval, mixing old-world gothic cues with a cartoonish roughness. It feels energetic and slightly chaotic, suited to humorous or offbeat themes rather than solemn tradition. The jagged rhythm gives it a loud, attention-grabbing voice with a handcrafted, “rough-hewn” personality.
The font appears designed to evoke blackletter heritage while intentionally exaggerating irregular cuts and angular terminals for a humorous, one-off display effect. Its goal seems to be immediate character and texture over neutrality, providing a distinctive medieval-meets-wacky voice for branding and titling.
At larger sizes the faceting and notches become a defining texture, while in longer lines the dense interior spaces and spiky joins can create a busy color. The design reads most clearly when given room to breathe and when used with restrained line lengths or generous tracking.
