A condensed, high-contrast serif with tall proportions and a lively, slightly irregular rhythm. Strokes move from hairline-thin connections to heavier verticals, with sharp, flared serifs and tapered terminals that often end in needle-like points. Curves show pinched joints and occasional wedge-like cut-ins, giving counters a carved, ink-trap-adjacent texture rather than smooth textbook forms. The overall silhouette is narrow and vertical, with decorative modulation that stays consistent across capitals, lowercase, and numerals.
Best suited to short, prominent settings where its contrast and spiky detailing can read clearly—headlines, titles, posters, book covers, and branding marks. It can also work for themed packaging or event materials that lean gothic, vintage, or magical. For long passages, it will be most effective at larger sizes where the hairlines and sharp terminals have room to breathe.
The font reads as darkly theatrical and old-world, suggesting Victorian print, gothic literature, and vintage storefront lettering. Its sharp terminals and spurred details add a touch of menace and whimsy, making it feel more illustrative than purely text-driven. The tone is dramatic and slightly eccentric rather than sober or corporate.
The design appears intended as a characterful display serif that riffs on traditional high-contrast forms while adding sharpened, ornamental terminals and slightly irregular shaping for atmosphere. Its narrow proportions and dramatic modulation prioritize personality and period flavor over neutral readability.
In continuous text the condensed width creates a tight texture, while the extreme contrast and pointed serifs become the dominant visual signature. The numerals echo the same tapered, calligraphic stress, and the uppercase set carries a particularly display-like presence with pronounced spurs and narrow interior spaces.
