A decorative serif with slender, tapered strokes and noticeably flared, forked terminals that read like small spurs rather than flat serifs. Curves are drawn with a calligraphic modulation, producing a gently sharpened, incised feeling in bowls and joins. Uppercase forms are relatively narrow and vertical, with pointed apexes and wedge-like finishing strokes; several letters show mid-stem flicks or hooked ends that add a slightly barbed silhouette. Lowercase is compact with a modest x-height, crisp entry/exit strokes, and occasional curled details (notably in descenders and the tail of the Q), giving the textline a lively, uneven sparkle without breaking overall consistency.
Best suited to display settings where its forked terminals and calligraphic modulation can be appreciated—titles, chapter heads, posters, packaging accents, and identity work with a medieval or fantasy theme. It can work for short bursts of text (pull quotes or headings), while long passages may benefit from larger sizes and generous spacing to preserve clarity.
The font conveys a gothic, old-world tone—more medieval and fantastical than formal. Its spurred terminals and sharp, flaring finishes suggest hand-crafted signage, folklore titles, and dramatic narration, with an atmosphere that feels mystical and slightly theatrical.
The design appears intended to blend traditional serif structure with ornamented, spurred finishing strokes to evoke historic manuscript and gothic display lettering. Its consistent decorative language across caps, lowercase, and figures suggests a purpose-built headline face meant to add narrative flavor and period character.
In text, the repeated pointed terminals create a distinctive rhythm that emphasizes verticals and sharp turning points, which can add character at display sizes. Numerals and punctuation carry the same decorative treatment, with curled or tapered ends that keep the set visually cohesive.
