A sharp, angular display face with fractured blackletter-inspired construction and pointed terminals. Strokes show pronounced thick–thin transitions and a strongly chiseled silhouette, with irregular, torn-looking edges that add texture and a hand-cut feel. Counters are tight and often pinched, and the overall rhythm is vertical and compact with uneven widths that create a jagged, animated line of text. Numerals and capitals carry the same serrated, ornamental treatment, keeping the set visually cohesive.
Best suited to display applications such as posters, title screens, album/merch graphics, and event branding where a dark gothic tone is desired. It works especially well for short headlines, logos, and packaging accents that can be set large enough to showcase the jagged detailing.
The font projects a dark, medieval mood with an aggressive, spiked energy. Its distressed forms suggest occult, horror, or fantasy themes, reading as theatrical and ominous rather than refined or neutral.
The design appears intended to merge blackletter structure with a distressed, hand-carved surface, prioritizing atmosphere and impact. It aims to evoke historical and occult associations while maintaining a cohesive, decorative texture across caps, lowercase, and figures.
At text sizes the dense interiors and busy contours can reduce clarity, while larger settings emphasize the rugged edge detail and dramatic stroke contrast. The sample text shows strong presence in headlines and short phrases, where the irregular texture becomes a feature rather than visual noise.
