A condensed, heavy blackletter with rigid vertical rhythm and tightly spaced, rectangular counters. Strokes are mostly monolinear with minimal contrast, forming blocky silhouettes punctuated by sharp wedge terminals and small horn-like spurs. Corners are crisp and angular, with occasional pointed feet and capped tops that create a chiseled, architectural feel. Lowercase forms are compact and upright with straight-sided bowls and narrow apertures, and the numerals follow the same tall, faceted construction for a consistent texture.
Best suited for short, high-impact settings such as titles, posters, packaging, and logo-style wordmarks where its compact width and blackletter texture can be a feature. It also fits fantasy, horror, historical, or metal-adjacent branding and display typography, especially when ample size and spacing are used.
The overall tone is gothic and ceremonial, evoking medieval signage and dark-fantasy titling. Its sharp points and dense texture read as assertive and slightly ominous, lending a theatrical, authoritative voice to headlines.
The design appears intended to deliver a modern, simplified blackletter voice: tall, compact, and forceful, with clean geometry and sharp terminals that prioritize punch and stylistic coherence over extended text comfort.
In text lines the repeated verticals create a strong woven texture, while the many pointed joins and tight counters can make long passages feel visually dense. The design maintains consistent proportions across caps, lowercase, and figures, reinforcing a uniform, emblematic look.
