A jagged, angular display face built from sharp strokes and faceted shapes. Letterforms lean forward with uneven, hand-cut rhythm, mixing straight diagonals with occasional hooked terminals and diamond-like counters. Strokes stay relatively thin while showing subtle tapering and abrupt direction changes, creating a scratchy, blade-like texture. Widths vary noticeably from glyph to glyph, and the overall spacing feels intentionally irregular for a more animated line of text.
Best suited to short, attention-grabbing settings where texture is an asset: posters, titles, packaging callouts, game or tabletop fantasy UI elements, and promotional graphics. It performs well at larger sizes where the sharp joins and irregularities remain legible and expressive.
The tone is cryptic and energetic, evoking carved symbols, comic-book spellcraft, and DIY lettering. Its sharp geometry and jittery cadence read as mischievous and slightly menacing, making it feel at home in fantasy or offbeat horror contexts without becoming overly dark.
The design appears intended to mimic quick, carved or sketched lettering with a stylized rune/knife-edge aesthetic. It prioritizes character and motion over typographic regularity, offering a distinctive voice for thematic, story-driven, or playful experimental design.
Distinctive rhombus/diamond motifs appear in several characters, reinforcing a rune-like identity. Numerals and capitals share the same angular construction, keeping a consistent ‘etched’ voice, while some forms simplify into single-stroke marks that heighten the experimental feel.
