A tall, tightly condensed display face with blackletter-leaning construction and sharply faceted terminals. Strokes are mostly uniform in weight, with crisp, chiseled corners, occasional wedge-like feet, and narrow interior counters that emphasize a vertical rhythm. Uppercase forms are rigid and monolithic, while the lowercase keeps the same skeletal logic with distinctive pointed i/j dots and a restrained, linear texture. Numerals follow the same narrow, angular geometry, maintaining a consistent, banner-like color in text.
Best suited for short, high-impact settings such as headlines, poster titling, logos, packaging accents, and entertainment branding. It performs particularly well where a dark, gothic, or fantasy-leaning mood is desired and where ample size can preserve its sharp internal detail.
The overall tone is dark, stylized, and slightly mischievous—evoking occult posters, dungeon signage, and metal-adjacent graphics without fully committing to traditional Fraktur. Its sharp edges and compressed proportions give it an intense, commanding voice that reads as deliberately eccentric and attention-seeking.
The design appears intended to deliver a compact, high-drama display voice by merging blackletter cues with a more simplified, uniform-weight build. Its narrow proportions and aggressive terminals suggest a focus on standout branding and thematic titling rather than extended reading.
The spacing and narrow counters create strong vertical striping, so word shapes can feel dense at smaller sizes. The pointed details (especially dots and terminals) add bite and personality, but also increase visual busyness in longer lines.
