A hand-drawn print face with wiry, slightly angular strokes and crisp, spurred terminals that mimic a rough pen or brush edge. Letterforms are narrow and lively, with uneven stroke modulation and subtly wobbly contours that keep the texture human and imperfect. Capitals show simple, upright structures with occasional flared ends and pinched joins, while lowercase maintains a compact, short-bodied rhythm with tall ascenders and descenders that add vertical sparkle. Numerals follow the same sharp, inked finishing and slightly irregular width, keeping the overall color light and textured rather than smooth and geometric.
Best suited to display settings such as titles, posters, packaging, and book or game cover typography where a hand-drawn, characterful texture is desirable. It also works well for seasonal or themed materials (e.g., fantasy, folktale, or lightly spooky concepts) and for short editorial callouts where personality matters more than typographic neutrality.
The font reads as mischievous and story-driven, with a touch of gothic whimsy from its spiky terminals and scratchy ink texture. Its uneven rhythm and hand-rendered edge give it a friendly, homemade character that can also lean eerie when set large or in high-contrast settings.
The design appears intended to capture the charm of informal hand lettering while adding a consistent, signature terminal style for recognizability. It aims for character and atmosphere over strict regularity, producing a distinctive voice for decorative display typography.
Spacing appears fairly open for such narrow forms, which helps legibility in short phrases while preserving the jittery, hand-made cadence. The distinctive terminal treatment becomes a key identifying feature across both the alphabet and figures, giving headings a recognizable, slightly barbed silhouette.
