A heavy, decorative display face with a blackletter-inspired skeleton that’s been loosened into irregular, chiseled forms. Strokes are thick and largely even, with jagged notches, wedge-like terminals, and faceted curves that feel hand-cut rather than mechanically drawn. Counters are compact and sometimes off-center, and the rhythm is intentionally uneven from glyph to glyph, creating a lively, slightly chaotic texture in words. The numerals match the same carved, angular language, with bold silhouettes and quirky internal shapes.
Best suited for short display settings where personality matters more than neutrality: headlines, posters, game titles/UI moments, themed packaging, and event or festival flyers. It can also work for pull quotes or chapter openers when paired with a calmer text face for longer reading.
The font reads as mischievous and theatrical, mixing old-world gothic cues with a deliberately offbeat, cartoonish twist. Its rough edges and inconsistent detailing give it a humorous, slightly spooky energy—more “storybook dungeon” than formal medieval manuscript.
The letterforms appear designed to evoke a gothic/blackletter feel while prioritizing novelty and character over historical accuracy. The irregular cuts, exaggerated wedges, and bouncy spacing suggest an intention to create a bold, humorous display texture that feels hand-made and slightly unruly.
The design relies on strong silhouettes and distinctive terminals, so it holds up best when given space; in dense settings the jagged detailing can visually clump. Capitals carry the strongest personality and can dominate the line, while lowercase keeps the same aesthetic with compact bowls and sharp joins.
