A decorative serif with high-contrast strokes and sharply flared, wedge-like terminals. The letters show a calligraphic influence: verticals feel slightly chiseled, curves taper into pointed ends, and many joins have crisp, knife-edge transitions. Serifs are irregular and expressive rather than strictly bracketed, giving the outlines a carved, hand-drawn rhythm. Proportions are generous and open in the capitals, while the lowercase is compact with a notably short x-height and lively ascenders/descenders that add texture in text.
Best suited to display typography such as book and chapter titles, fantasy or historical cover design, posters, and brand marks that want an archaic or mystical flavor. It can work for short passages or pull quotes at comfortable sizes, where its decorative terminals remain clear without becoming busy.
The overall tone is theatrical and old-world, evoking illuminated manuscripts, fantasy titles, and antiquarian printing. Its sharp terminals and sculpted contrast create a slightly ominous, magical energy while still reading as a serifed text face.
Likely designed to reinterpret classical serif construction through a calligraphic, carved aesthetic—prioritizing atmosphere and character over strict neutrality. The intent appears to be a distinctive, story-driven voice that feels historical and crafted.
In the sample text, the distinctive terminals and angular stress become more prominent at larger sizes, where the pointed finishes and tapered curves read as deliberate ornament. Numerals mirror the same chiseled, flared treatment, with pronounced contrast and stylized curves that suit display settings.
