A condensed, forward-leaning display face with blackletter-informed construction and sharply faceted terminals. Strokes are mostly uniform in thickness, with crisp, chiseled corners and frequent wedge-like joins that create a broken, zig-zag rhythm. The counters are tight and the interior shapes stay narrow, producing tall, compact silhouettes and a dense vertical texture. Capitals and lowercase share a consistent, rigid geometry, while certain characters introduce idiosyncratic bends and notches that push it toward a more eccentric, one-off look.
Best suited to display applications where its angular blackletter flavor can be read large: posters, title cards, packaging, and logo-style branding. It also fits music and entertainment graphics, game or fantasy-themed headers, and short, punchy lines of text where the distinctive texture is an asset.
The overall tone is dark and theatrical, evoking medieval signage, old-world proclamations, and occult or horror-leaning graphics. Its aggressive angles and compressed stance give it a tense, urgent energy that reads as rebellious and stylized rather than formal.
The design appears intended to fuse blackletter cues with a sharper, more eccentric drawing—keeping the vertical, broken-stroke tradition while simplifying contrast and exaggerating angles for impact. It prioritizes atmosphere and silhouette over extended text readability, aiming to create a recognizable, stylized voice in headlines.
The set maintains strong vertical continuity, but the sharp, fractured detailing can make some letters feel closely related at smaller sizes. Spacing appears tight in text, and the dramatic angularity becomes the primary identifying feature, especially in all-caps and headline settings.
