A distressed display face with uneven contours and visibly roughened edges, as if stamped, worn, or cut from soft material. Strokes are moderately heavy with subtle, inconsistent swelling and pinched joins that create a torn, organic silhouette. Counters tend to be small and lumpy rather than geometric, and terminals finish in blunt, fractured ends instead of clean cuts. Overall proportions are fairly compact, with sturdy verticals and a slightly wavering baseline feel that adds to the handmade irregularity.
Best suited for short, high-impact text such as headlines, titles, packaging callouts, and event promotions where the distressed texture can be appreciated. It works well over flat backgrounds or large sizes in posters, game UI headings, and cover art; for body copy, it’s more effective in brief bursts due to the rough edges and dense texture.
The texture and broken outlines give it an ominous, timeworn tone—suggesting old posters, cursed book titles, or handmade signage in a haunted setting. Its imperfect, blotched rhythm reads as unsettling and gritty rather than playful, emphasizing tension and atmosphere.
The design appears intended to deliver an immediate, atmospheric impact by combining sturdy letterforms with deliberate degradation. Its consistent ragged perimeter and blot-like shaping prioritize mood and tactile character, evoking aged print and unsettling handcrafted marks.
Uppercase forms carry a carved, slightly medieval flavor in their construction, while lowercase stays simple and sturdy, keeping the font readable despite the heavy distress. Numerals follow the same eroded treatment, maintaining consistent color and texture across the set.
