This font presents tall, tightly spaced letterforms with a pronounced vertical emphasis and sharp, faceted terminals. Strokes show strong contrast between thick stems and hairline-like connecting strokes, with wedge- and blade-shaped endings that create a cut, chiseled look. Curves are narrow and slightly angular, and many characters feature pointed joins and small flicks that feel drawn rather than mechanically constructed. Overall rhythm is compact and punchy, with individual glyphs varying in width while keeping a consistent, upright posture.
Best suited to display typography such as posters, headlines, book and chapter titles, album artwork, and branding that benefits from a gothic or antique voice. It can work well for short bursts of text where its sharp contrast and narrow build read as intentional style rather than long-form body copy.
The tone is gothic and ceremonial, evoking old-world print, dramatic titles, and a slightly ominous, storybook mood. Its sharpness and contrast lend a sense of elegance, while the narrow proportions add urgency and intensity in display settings.
The design appears intended to deliver a hand-drawn, blackletter-inspired look with dramatic contrast and tight vertical proportions, prioritizing atmosphere and character in titles and logos. Its consistent spiky terminals and upright structure suggest a focus on creating a cohesive, historic-feeling texture across a line of text.
Uppercase and lowercase share a cohesive blackletter-leaning vocabulary, with distinctive pointed counters and tapered strokes that remain legible at larger sizes. Numerals carry the same angular, calligraphic energy, reinforcing the ornamental, historical flavor across alphanumerics.
