A rough, brush-ink display face with irregular stroke edges and visibly textured terminals. Letterforms are upright with a slightly condensed feel, but widths vary enough to keep a handmade rhythm. Strokes show medium contrast driven by brush pressure, with sharp, tapering flicks and occasional blunt, blotty joins that create a worn, uneven silhouette. Counters are generally open, while diagonals and curved strokes carry a chiseled, scratch-like finish that reads as intentionally distressed rather than purely calligraphic.
This font performs best in short to medium display settings where texture is a feature: titles, headers, logos, and packaging with a dark or rustic theme. It can add grit and personality to posters and album artwork, and works well for game titles or UI accents when used at sizes large enough to preserve the rough edges.
The overall tone is dark and atmospheric, evoking hand-lettered signage, ritual or fantasy ephemera, and aged print. Its roughness and ink drag suggest something weathered, improvised, or ominous, with a theatrical edge suited to genre-driven design.
The design appears intended to mimic rough brush lettering and degraded print, combining legible serif-like structures with distressed outlines to create an aged, cinematic display voice. It prioritizes mood, texture, and genre signaling over neutral readability.
Capitals feel more display-forward and dramatic, with exaggerated hooks and pointed terminals in letters like J, R, and Y, while lowercase remains compact with a notably short x-height and wiry ascenders/descenders. Numerals keep the same distressed texture and slightly uneven baseline presence, reinforcing the handcrafted character across the set.
