This typeface has a hand-drawn, pen-and-ink look with crisp, tapered terminals and slightly uneven stroke behavior that keeps the rhythm lively. Letterforms are tall and slender with compact counters, and many shapes end in sharp, pointed tips that feel carved or inked with a flexible nib. Curves are somewhat faceted rather than perfectly round, and the overall construction mixes simple geometric strokes with occasional exaggerated bowls and descenders. Spacing and widths vary from glyph to glyph, reinforcing an informal, drawn-by-hand consistency rather than a strictly modular build.
It works best for short to medium display text where its narrow, spiky forms can read clearly—posters, event flyers, book or game titles, packaging accents, and themed invitations. It can also serve as a secondary display face in branding systems that want a handmade, slightly eerie or whimsical voice.
The tone reads playful and characterful, with a faintly gothic or Halloween-leaning edge created by the spiky terminals and narrow silhouettes. It suggests folklore, fantasy, and storybook titling—expressive without becoming chaotic—making it feel theatrical and a bit mischievous.
The design appears intended to emulate quick, confident hand lettering with a stylized, pointed finish—balancing legibility with personality. Its tall proportions and varied widths aim to create a distinctive headline texture and an illustrative, narrative feel.
In the sample text, the tall capitals and pointed joins create strong vertical texture and a distinctive silhouette at display sizes. The numerals and punctuation follow the same tapered, inked logic, helping headings feel cohesive across mixed-case and number-heavy settings.
