A bold, hand-drawn display face with sharp, wedge-like terminals and a slightly back-slanted (reverse-italic) stance. Strokes are thick and mostly solid, with modest contrast and frequent tapering into pointed ends, giving the letterforms a cut-brush or marker-carved look. Proportions run fairly narrow with a short x-height and uneven, variable widths, creating an irregular rhythm that feels intentionally rough. Curves are lumpy and faceted rather than smooth, and counters tend to be tight, especially in rounded letters and numerals.
This font suits short, high-impact settings such as posters, book or chapter titles, game UI headings, packaging, and event branding where a gothic/folkloric voice is desired. It performs best at medium to large sizes where the irregular edges and tight counters remain clear.
The overall tone reads gothic and storybook-like, mixing spooky medieval flavor with an informal, mischievous energy. Its rough edges and expressive angles suggest hand-made signage or stylized fantasy titling rather than refined text typography.
The design appears intended to evoke hand-rendered blackletter-inspired drama without strict calligraphic rules, prioritizing character and texture over uniformity. It aims to deliver an expressive, themed display look that feels drawn rather than constructed.
Capitals are especially decorative and spiky, while lowercase maintains the same jagged brush character for a cohesive texture in lines of text. Numerals are similarly stylized, with heavy, calligraphic weight and pointed joins that match the alphabet.
