A sharply angular, hand-cut display face with irregular stroke terminals and frequent notches, giving each letter a carved, slightly jagged silhouette. Strokes are mostly monoline with subtle swelling, and corners often break into small wedges or hooks rather than clean joins. Proportions run condensed overall, with tall ascenders and compact counters; many forms feel intentionally uneven, creating a lively, non-mechanical rhythm. The texture is bold and dark on the page, with consistent presence across caps, lowercase, and numerals despite the deliberate roughness.
Best used for headlines and short bursts of copy where texture and personality are desirable—posters, game titles, Halloween or fantasy-themed materials, boutique packaging, and chapter headings. It can work for pull quotes or signage-style text when set with generous size and spacing to preserve readability.
The font projects a playful, mischievous energy through its choppy edges and offbeat construction, balancing a medieval/handcrafted flavor with a cartoonish wink. It feels theatrical and a bit unruly, suited to lighthearted drama, spooky fun, or eccentric fantasy rather than sober communication.
The design appears intended to mimic hand-drawn or hand-carved lettering, emphasizing quirky construction and spiky terminals to create an expressive, one-off display tone. Its condensed stance and dark color suggest it aims to deliver impact and atmosphere quickly, prioritizing character over neutrality.
In text, the jagged terminals and compact apertures build a strong decorative pattern; the distinctive shapes help word silhouettes but can reduce clarity at smaller sizes. Capitals are especially characterful and blocky, while lowercase retains the same cut-paper/chiseled attitude for a cohesive voice.
