A decorative serif with sharply tapered, wedge-like terminals and a carved, calligraphic feel. Strokes stay fairly even in weight while endings come to pointed tips, creating a crisp, chiseled silhouette. Many forms mix straight facets with occasional broad curves, and several letters feature diamond-shaped or lozenge-like counters that read as ornament rather than pure structure. The lowercase shows lively, idiosyncratic construction (notably in a, g, and t), and the numerals follow the same angular, stylized logic for a cohesive, display-driven texture.
Best suited for display work where personality is the priority: fantasy and adventure book covers, game titles and UI headings, posters, event branding, and logo wordmarks. It can work for short taglines or pull quotes when set with generous size and spacing, but it is most effective in headlines rather than long passages.
The overall tone is evocative of fantasy titles and archaic inscriptions—dramatic, mystical, and slightly playful. Its rune-like details and sharp terminals suggest storytelling, magic, and medieval or pseudo-historical settings rather than everyday utility.
The design appears intended to deliver an instantly recognizable, story-driven voice by blending wedge-serif structure with runic, gemstone-like details. It prioritizes distinctive silhouettes and ornamental counters to create a themed, one-off display texture that reads as crafted and mythical.
Spacing and rhythm feel intentionally uneven in a decorative way, with strong silhouettes and distinctive internal shapes that help single letters stand out. The sharp points and ornamental counters increase personality but can create visual busyness in dense text, especially at smaller sizes.
