A heavy, blackletter-influenced serif with sharp, faceted strokes and pronounced spurs that split into forked terminals. The letterforms are built from broad verticals and angled joins, with rectangular counters and notched corners that create a chiseled, cut-from-stone look. Capitals are tall and imposing with strong vertical emphasis, while lowercase stays compact and sturdy, using abrupt shoulders and wedge-like feet rather than flowing curves. Overall rhythm is dense and blocky, with crisp edges and clear internal geometry that reads best at display sizes.
Best suited to headlines, posters, titles, and branding where a historic or gothic voice is desired. It works well on labels, album covers, event graphics, and signage that benefit from a dense, high-impact texture, but it is likely to feel heavy in long passages of small body text.
The style evokes medieval signage, heraldry, and old-world print with a stern, ceremonial tone. Its dark color and aggressive angles feel authoritative and dramatic, suggesting tradition, ritual, and a slightly ominous gravitas.
The font appears designed to deliver a bold, ornamental blackletter flavor in a sturdy, highly legible display form. Its forked terminals and geometric cut-ins aim to create a distinctive texture that reads as traditional and emblematic while remaining consistent and forceful across letters and numbers.
The design relies on recurring mid-stem spurs and stepped terminals to keep texture consistent across the alphabet. Round forms (such as O and C) are squared-off and internally rectilinear, reinforcing the carved aesthetic. Numerals match the same blunt, angular construction and hold their weight well alongside the caps.
