A heavy, display-oriented serif with broad proportions and a compact internal rhythm. Strokes are sturdy and largely low-contrast, with frequent wedge-like terminals and small, flared serifs that read as incised or chiseled rather than calligraphic. Curves are squared-off and slightly faceted, with rounded rectangles in counters and strong, flat horizontals; many joins form crisp angles instead of smooth transitions. The overall texture is dark and assertive, with generous widths and consistent weight that holds up well at larger sizes.
Best suited to headlines, titles, and short passages where its strong silhouette and decorative terminals can be appreciated. It works well for posters, book/game covers, branding marks, packaging, and themed signage that benefits from a historic or fantasy-leaning voice.
The tone evokes medieval and heraldic lettering—dramatic, ceremonial, and slightly archaic. Its beveled terminals and angular modulation suggest carved signage or fantasy title typography, giving text a theatrical, story-driven character.
The design appears intended to deliver a bold, carved-serif impression that feels traditional yet stylized, prioritizing impact and theme over neutrality. Its wide stance, dark color, and wedge terminals aim for memorable display presence and a distinctive period flavor.
Uppercase forms show distinctive spur and wedge treatments, while lowercase introduces more pronounced hooks and angular entry/exit strokes, creating an energetic rhythm in continuous text. Numerals are similarly blocky and geometric, matching the alphabet’s carved, faceted feel.
