A slanted, calligraphy-driven script with sharp, spurred terminals and dramatic thick–thin modulation. Strokes feel brushlike and slightly ragged at edges, with tapered entries, needle points, and occasional hooked or split ends that create a scratchy texture. Letterforms are generally narrow with lively, uneven rhythm and subtle width changes across characters; capitals are more ornate and gestural while lowercase stays compact. The x-height reads on the smaller side, with tall ascenders and deep descenders adding vertical drama.
Best used for short, prominent text such as titles, posters, packaging accents, and identity marks where the dramatic contrast and pointed terminals can be appreciated. It can work in pull quotes or brief headings, but the textured strokes and compact lowercase suggest avoiding long body copy or very small sizes.
The font projects a darkly romantic, theatrical tone—part antique inscription, part expressive brush pen. Its spiky finishing strokes and high-energy slant give it a restless, mysterious character suited to evocative, story-driven design.
The design appears intended to emulate expressive handwritten lettering with a formal-leaning calligraphic backbone, amplifying contrast and sharp terminals for a heightened, cinematic presence. It prioritizes mood and gesture over uniformity, aiming to feel handcrafted and slightly untamed.
Counters are often tight and partially pinched by heavy strokes, and some joins look intentionally abrupt to preserve a hand-cut feel. Numerals and capitals carry strong personality and can become dominant, especially in longer lines, reinforcing the display-first nature of the style.
