A sharp, angular display face with jagged, wedge-like terminals and a distinctly irregular, hand-cut rhythm. Strokes stay fairly even in weight, but outlines kink and taper into points, creating a faceted, carved look rather than smooth curves. Proportions are lively and inconsistent by design: bowls often turn into diamond-like counters, diagonals dominate many forms, and several capitals lean into dramatic, asymmetrical silhouettes. Numerals follow the same chiseled language, with pointed joins and abrupt direction changes that read clearly at larger sizes.
Best suited for short, high-impact settings such as posters, event flyers, game or campaign titles, themed packaging, and cover art. It can also work for logos or headers where a spiky, fantastical voice is desired. For readability, reserve it for display sizes and keep line lengths moderate.
The font projects a playful menace—half fantasy title card, half mischievous graffiti. Its spiky edges and off-kilter motion feel energetic and slightly chaotic, evoking comic villainy, dungeon-adventure flavor, and tongue-in-cheek horror. Overall, it reads as intentionally eccentric and attention-seeking rather than refined or formal.
This design appears intended to deliver an unmistakably eccentric display voice built from sharp angles and carved-looking forms. The irregular construction and dramatic terminals prioritize character and atmosphere over neutrality, aiming to give headlines a wacky, theatrical punch.
In the sample text, the texture becomes dense and animated, with frequent sharp corners producing a strong zigzag baseline impression. The most distinctive motif is the repeated use of diamond/lozenge shapes in counters and terminals, which gives words a rune-like, “carved” sparkle but can reduce legibility at small sizes or in long passages.
