A condensed serif design with tall proportions, crisp outlines, and a tight, vertical rhythm. Strokes are mostly even but show subtle swelling into flared, wedge-like terminals and pointed serifs that create a slightly spiky silhouette. Curves are narrow and upright, with compact bowls and a restrained x-height relative to the ascenders, giving the lowercase a lean, vertical texture. Numerals and capitals follow the same narrow build, with strong vertical stems and sharply cut joins that keep the overall color dense and emphatic.
Works best for short-to-medium display settings such as posters, title treatments, book covers, and brand marks that want a vintage gothic or storybook flavor. It can also serve for pull quotes or section headers where a narrow footprint and strong vertical emphasis are helpful.
The font conveys a gothic, antique tone with a dramatic, theatrical edge. Its sharp serifs and flared endings suggest vintage display typography—suited to ominous, fantastical, or ritual-like atmospheres rather than neutral everyday text.
The design appears intended to deliver a compact, attention-grabbing serif voice with historic and gothic overtones, using flared terminals and sharp serifs to create drama while maintaining a controlled, upright structure.
In the sample text, the condensed spacing and pointed details create a strong word-shape presence and a dark typographic color. The most distinctive character comes from the consistent flare at stroke ends, which adds ornament without becoming fully calligraphic or blackletter.
