A slanted, brush-ink display face with heavy strokes that taper to sharp points and frayed terminals. The letterforms show pronounced stroke modulation and a slightly uneven baseline rhythm, as if written quickly with a loaded brush. Counters are compact and occasionally irregular, while joins and diagonals form knife-like angles that heighten contrast between thick bodies and thin exits. Overall spacing feels lively and slightly variable, with characters maintaining a consistent forward-leaning momentum across both uppercase and lowercase.
Best suited to short, high-impact text such as titles, headlines, logotypes, and promotional graphics where the brush texture and sharp terminals can be appreciated. It can work for themed packaging or event materials, especially when paired with a simpler supporting text face for longer reading.
The texture and spiky tapers create an ominous, ritual-like tone that reads as dramatic and slightly menacing rather than polished. Its handmade energy suggests urgency and suspense, pairing well with dark, cinematic themes and gritty atmospheres.
The design appears intended to mimic forceful brush lettering with aggressive tapers and a rough ink edge, prioritizing mood and immediacy over neutrality. Its consistent slant and dramatic modulation aim to deliver a tense, theatrical voice for themed display typography.
Uppercase forms are bold and gestural, while the lowercase retains the same sharp-tapered stroke endings for cohesion. Numerals follow the same brush logic, with angled starts and tapered finishes that keep them visually consistent in display settings.
