A sharply faceted decorative serif with heavy, even strokes and pronounced wedge-like terminals. The letterforms are built from straight segments and crisp corners, with frequent chamfered or notched joins that create a carved, chiseled impression. Capitals are tall and commanding with strong horizontal bars, while the lowercase keeps a sturdy, compact build and a relatively tall presence for its size. Counters are mostly rectangular and tightly controlled, and the numerals follow the same angular construction for a consistent texture in mixed settings.
Best suited for display use such as posters, headlines, branding marks, album or game titles, and packaging that benefits from a strong historical or dramatic flavor. It can also work for short setting blocks or pull quotes where a dense, ornamental texture is desirable.
The overall tone evokes Gothic and heraldic lettering—formal, forceful, and a bit theatrical. Its sharp cuts and spurred terminals read as ceremonial and historical rather than casual, adding a sense of tradition and intensity to headlines.
The design appears intended to translate a carved or engraved blackletter-adjacent spirit into a more structured, serifed display face. Its consistent stroke weight and angular detailing prioritize impact, clarity of silhouette, and a distinctive historic atmosphere over neutral body-text readability.
Texture on the page is dense and high-impact, with many interior corners and short horizontals that create a rhythmic, patterned color in text. The design favors straight-sided geometry over curves, so it feels especially crisp at larger sizes where the facets and notches can be appreciated.
