A condensed display face with tall proportions, heavy strokes, and a distinctly irregular, hand-cut silhouette. Stems taper and flare into wedge-like terminals, with slight waviness in verticals and asymmetrical joins that keep the rhythm intentionally uneven. Counters are generally narrow and rectangular, and many letters rely on sharp corners, hooked arms, and abrupt notches rather than smooth curves. The overall texture is dark and lively, with small variations in width and endpoint shaping that read as crafted rather than geometric.
Best suited to display settings where personality matters more than continuous readability—titles, short headers, and logo-like wordmarks. It fits fantasy and horror-adjacent themes, game UI titles, event posters, and packaging that benefits from a handcrafted, gothic-leaning texture.
The font conveys a mischievous, mystical tone—somewhere between medieval signage and a playful, spooky display. Its jagged terminals and quirky constructions give it an incantatory, storybook energy that feels dramatic and slightly uncanny rather than formal.
The design appears intended to mimic a hand-drawn or carved letter style with deliberate oddities and expressive terminals, prioritizing character and atmosphere. Its condensed build and heavy color suggest it was made to command attention in short, impactful lines.
In the text sample, the dense vertical rhythm creates a strong pattern at larger sizes, while the unconventional letterforms can slow reading in longer passages. The numerals follow the same carved, wedge-terminal logic, keeping the set visually consistent for headings and short callouts.
