A heavy, angular display face with faceted, chiseled contours and sharply notched corners. Strokes are predominantly straight with minimal curvature, creating a blocky, carved rhythm and dense silhouettes. Counters are small and often polygonal, and terminals tend to end in abrupt cuts or pointed wedges. Overall spacing feels tight and compact, producing a strong, poster-like texture that reads as a continuous dark pattern in lines of text.
Best suited to short, high-impact settings such as titles, headlines, logos, posters, and packaging that benefits from a gothic or medieval flavor. It can also work for entertainment contexts like game, film, or music artwork where a dark, aggressive texture is desired; longer text will quickly become visually dense at smaller sizes.
The font projects a medieval, hard-edged attitude with a loud, forceful presence. Its jagged geometry and cut-in details suggest armor, stone carving, and gothic signage, giving headlines a dramatic and confrontational tone.
The design appears intended to translate blackletter tradition into a modern, simplified, high-mass silhouette, emphasizing sharp geometry and strong pattern-making over delicate detail. Its consistent, carved look aims for immediate thematic signaling and maximum impact in display typography.
Uppercase and lowercase share a consistent blackletter-inspired construction, with distinctive broken strokes and occasional protruding spurs that add visual bite. Numerals match the same faceted treatment, staying bold and compact for a unified set.
