A jagged, hand-hewn display face with chunky strokes and irregular, faceted outlines. Letterforms lean heavily on angular geometry—wedges, notches, and diamond-like counters—while maintaining a mostly upright stance. Stroke endings are blunt and uneven, as if cut with a knife or carved, producing a lively, inconsistent edge texture. Proportions vary noticeably from glyph to glyph, with compact bowls, sharp joins, and simplified curves that read more like chipped shapes than smooth calligraphy.
Best suited for short, attention-grabbing settings such as posters, headlines, packaging callouts, and logo marks where texture and character are desirable. It also fits title treatments for games, fantasy or adventure-themed projects, and album/cover art, especially when set large enough for the jagged detailing to remain clear.
The overall tone is ritualistic and playful at once, evoking carved marks, folk signage, and fantasy-adjacent iconography. Its irregular rhythm and spiky silhouettes create an energetic, slightly mischievous voice that feels handmade rather than engineered.
The design appears intended to mimic hand-carved or cut lettering with deliberately irregular contours and angular counters, prioritizing personality and texture over smoothness. Its consistent roughness across caps, lowercase, and numerals suggests a unified decorative voice meant for expressive display typography.
Counters are often angular and enclosed shapes skew toward diamonds and wedges, boosting the emblem-like presence in caps. The lowercase retains the same rough-cut construction, keeping texture consistent in longer text, though the uneven widths and sharp details make it most comfortable at display sizes.
