A distressed blackletter/old-style display with compact proportions and a strongly vertical rhythm. Strokes are heavy and relatively even, with modest contrast and abrupt, chiseled terminals that break into ragged edges and small voids, evoking worn ink or damaged type. Counters are tight, joins are angular, and the texture is deliberately uneven, creating a mottled silhouette across letters and figures. The overall set is consistent in its roughened perimeter treatment while retaining clear, upright gothic structure.
Best suited for short, high-impact typography such as titles, logos, event posters, packaging accents, and chapter heads where the distressed texture can read as intentional detail. It works particularly well in thematic applications—horror, dark fantasy, medieval or occult branding—where atmosphere matters more than extended readability.
The font projects a dark, antique atmosphere—part medieval manuscript, part weathered poster. Its rough, torn contours and dense color feel ominous and theatrical, suggesting folklore, horror, occult themes, or gritty historical settings rather than everyday neutrality.
The design appears intended to combine traditional gothic letter construction with a deliberately degraded print texture, delivering an aged, gritty display face for dramatic, theme-driven typography.
In longer lines, the distressed edges create a strong surface texture that becomes a defining feature, especially at larger sizes. The numerals share the same eroded, printed-wear character, maintaining continuity with the letterforms.
