A compact, heavy display face with hand-drawn construction and softly irregular contours. Strokes are thick and mostly monoline with mild swelling, ending in wedge-like, slightly canted terminals that suggest a brush or broad-pen influence. Counters are small and rounded, and many forms show asymmetric joins and subtle notches that create an intentionally uneven rhythm. Uppercase structures are simplified and tall, while the lowercase remains compact with a small x-height and distinctive, lumpy bowls and shoulders; numerals are similarly stout and slightly quirky in proportion.
Best suited to short-form display settings where personality is the priority: headlines, posters, book and album covers, packaging, and themed titles for games or events. It can also work for pull quotes or section headers, but the heavy strokes and compact counters make it less comfortable for extended small-size reading.
The overall tone feels folkloric and old-world, with a touch of mischievous darkness—equal parts storybook, tavern sign, and spooky poster. Its irregular inkiness reads as human and crafted rather than mechanical, giving text a theatrical, characterful presence.
Likely designed to provide a bold, hand-rendered display voice that evokes historic or folkloric lettering while staying friendly and readable. The controlled irregularities and wedge terminals appear intended to add crafted texture and dramatic flair without connecting strokes.
The texture is consistent across cases, with pronounced silhouette character carrying most of the personality. The dense color and tight counters can look especially punchy at larger sizes, where the nuanced terminal angles and small irregularities become part of the charm.
