A sharply angular, faceted sans with monolinear strokes and frequent wedge-like terminals. Curves are largely replaced by planar breaks and pointed joins, giving letters a carved, rune-adjacent geometry. Proportions skew tall and compact, with narrow counters and a slightly irregular rhythm across the alphabet; diagonals and acute angles dominate, while round forms like O are rendered as diamond-like shapes. The lowercase appears simplified and somewhat mixed in construction, pairing straight stems with occasional flicked or bent strokes, reinforcing a hand-hewn, glyphic consistency rather than a strictly systematic grotesk build.
Best suited to display contexts where the angular texture is an asset: fantasy or mythic titling, game interfaces and menus, posters, album covers, and emblematic wordmarks. It can work for short bursts of text, but its pointed geometry and uneven rhythm will be most effective in headlines, labels, and thematic graphics.
The overall tone feels occult and archaic, like markings cut into stone or metal. Its sharp silhouettes and crystalline facets read as dramatic and slightly aggressive, evoking fantasy, pagan/runic motifs, and ritual signage rather than everyday neutrality.
This font appears designed to translate a rune-like, carved aesthetic into a readable Latin alphabet by substituting curves with facets and emphasizing sharp terminals. The goal seems to be strong thematic signaling—ancient, magical, or tribal—while retaining enough letterform structure for punchy display typography.
The design leans on distinctive triangular counters and split strokes in several capitals, creating strong internal shapes that stay recognizable at display sizes. Spacing and widths vary noticeably between characters, which contributes to an intentionally uneven, hand-crafted texture in text.
