A sharp, blackletter-influenced display face with faceted strokes and pronounced triangular terminals. Letterforms are built from dense verticals and abrupt diagonals, with notched joins and wedge-like feet that create a carved, chiseled silhouette. Counters are compact and often rectangular, producing a dark, high-impact texture, while widths vary noticeably from glyph to glyph. The lowercase retains the same rigid, broken construction, and the numerals follow the angular, cut-metal logic with strong cornering and minimal rounding.
Best suited to short, prominent settings such as posters, title cards, brand marks, and packaging where its angular blackletter flavor can lead the visual identity. It also works well for fantasy or horror-adjacent projects—game titles, album art, and event flyers—where a dramatic, archaic atmosphere is desirable.
The font conveys a medieval and theatrical tone with an edge of menace—evoking gothic signage, occult motifs, and heavy, dramatic branding. Its spiky rhythm and dense color read as assertive and performative rather than neutral or bookish.
The design appears intended to deliver a highly stylized, blackletter-like voice with a carved, weaponized silhouette—prioritizing impact and attitude over continuous reading comfort. Its broken forms and wedge terminals aim to look hand-forged or stone-cut, creating a distinctive display texture.
In text, the strong vertical emphasis produces a tight, fence-like pattern; the many sharp interior corners and narrow apertures can make longer passages feel intense and visually busy. The design’s irregularities and distinctive cut-in details add character at headline sizes but benefit from generous tracking and leading when set in multiple lines.
