A compact, angular display face built from straight strokes and sharp planar cuts, replacing curves with beveled corners and pointed terminals. Strokes stay largely uniform in thickness, producing a dense, graphic silhouette with strong vertical emphasis and tight interior counters. Capitals are tall and rigid, while lowercase forms echo the same faceted construction with simplified bowls and diagonals; overall spacing reads slightly tight, reinforcing a sturdy, blocky rhythm across words and lines. Numerals follow the same chiseled geometry, keeping the set visually consistent in headlines and short strings.
Best suited to display settings where strong personality is desired: posters, title cards, branding marks, album/merch graphics, and gaming or fantasy-themed UI headings. It works well for short phrases, labels, and punchy headlines where the faceted texture can carry the composition rather than serve continuous reading.
The tone is assertive and archaic, evoking carved inscriptions and gothic/blackletter associations without fully adopting traditional calligraphic contrast. Its sharp facets and weighty color give it an intense, militant energy that can feel ceremonial, ominous, or metal-adjacent depending on context.
The font appears designed to deliver an inscriptional, gothic-flavored presence using a modern, geometric faceting system—prioritizing impact, sharpness, and stylistic cohesion across uppercase, lowercase, and numerals.
The design relies on distinctive angled cut-ins and wedge-like joins that create a consistent zig-zag texture along baselines and cap heights. The faceting can make small sizes and long passages feel busy, but it produces strong impact at larger display sizes where the internal shapes and bevels become legible.
