A calligraphic display face with sculpted, chisel-like stroke endings and frequent flared terminals. Stems show moderate contrast with tapered joins and occasional wedge-shaped serifs, giving the letters a carved, slightly angular silhouette while maintaining rounded counters in O- and C-like forms. Curves often finish in sharp hooks or beak-like spurs, and several capitals use asymmetric, decorative construction that increases visual motion. Numerals follow the same hand-cut logic with curved strokes and pointed finishing cuts, producing an irregular, lively rhythm across a line of text.
Well-suited for display typography such as book covers, chapter openers, posters, game/film titles, and branding where a historical or fantastical voice is desired. It can also work for short pull quotes or invitations when set at larger sizes to preserve the crisp, decorative terminals.
The overall tone is old-world and theatrical, evoking illuminated manuscripts, folklore titles, and fantasy settings. Its sharp terminals and ornamental capitals add a ceremonial, slightly mysterious flavor while still reading as a coherent, traditional hand-rendered style.
Designed to capture the feel of formal pen-and-ink lettering with a carved finish, balancing legibility with expressive, ornamental details. The consistent use of flared ends and spurred forms suggests an intention to deliver a distinctive period atmosphere rather than a neutral text voice.
Spacing and letter widths vary noticeably, contributing to a hand-drawn cadence. The font reads best when allowed some size and breathing room, where the distinctive hooks, spurs, and flares can register without crowding.
