A decorative, hand-rendered gothic with thick, slightly irregular strokes and softly squared terminals. The letterforms combine blackletter-like structure with rounded, bulbous serifs and wedge-like joins, creating a carved-yet-inky texture. Curves are generous and counters are compact, with uneven edges and subtle stroke wobble that reinforce a drawn feel. Uppercase forms are sturdy and compact, while lowercase shows a lively rhythm with varied widths and distinctive, calligraphic shapes.
Best suited for display applications where personality matters more than prolonged readability—titles, posters, labels, game or fantasy-themed branding, and packaging. It can work for short bursts of text (pull quotes, chapter heads), but the dense texture is most effective at larger sizes with comfortable tracking.
The overall tone feels medieval and folkloric, like signage from an old tavern or lettering from a fantasy storybook. Its chunky forms and friendly irregularities keep it approachable rather than severe, giving it a playful, rustic character with an old-world flavor.
The design appears intended to evoke blackletter heritage through simplified, hand-cut shapes, while softening the usual sharpness with rounded terminals and an informal, hand-drawn finish. The goal is an expressive medieval voice that feels decorative and approachable for modern display use.
The numerals and lowercase maintain the same blunt, embellished terminal treatment, helping the set read as a unified display face. The texture is visually dense, so spacing and line breaks will noticeably affect legibility in longer passages.
