A stylized serif with slender verticals and sharply pointed, forked terminals that read like small barbs or spur-serifs. Strokes show clear modulation, with crisp joins and tapered endings rather than blunt cuts. The letterforms are compact and upright, with a relatively tight rhythm and narrow internal apertures in places, while rounded forms stay controlled and slightly condensed. Uppercase construction feels formal and vertical, and the lowercase continues the same spurred logic with prominent ascenders and neatly pinched terminals.
Best suited to display typography such as book and album covers, film or event posters, chapter titles, and themed packaging where its spurred detailing can be appreciated. It can also work for short pull quotes, invitations, or logo-style wordmarks that want a gothic or mystical edge.
The overall tone is gothic and theatrical, suggesting dark fantasy, folklore, or arcane ornamentation without becoming overly distressed. The spurred endings add a sense of tension and sharpness, giving text a ceremonial, enchanted character that stands out in display settings.
Designed to reinterpret a traditional serif through ornamental, forked terminals and controlled contrast, aiming for a dramatic, characterful texture while remaining structurally legible. The consistent spur vocabulary suggests an intention to evoke historical or fantastical moods with a refined, curated finish.
The distinctive forked terminals are consistent across capitals, lowercase, and numerals, creating a cohesive texture in words. The style produces strong silhouettes and eye-catching word shapes, but the pointed detailing can visually accumulate in dense passages, especially at smaller sizes.
