A decorative, hand-drawn roman with thin, slightly uneven strokes and a loose, sketch-like construction. Many glyphs feature distinctive interior cutouts or counters that read like small "eyes" or blobs, giving the letters an animated look. The outlines are softly irregular with occasional hooked terminals and casual joins, creating a lively rhythm rather than a geometric or calligraphic system. Spacing and widths vary noticeably between characters, and round forms (O, o, 0) emphasize the quirky counter detailing, while diagonals (V, W, X, Y) keep a narrow, spiky energy.
Best suited to short, display-driven settings where its character can read as an illustration: posters, event titles, book or zine covers, game and fantasy-themed UI elements, and playful packaging. It works particularly well at larger sizes where the counter details and irregular contours remain clear.
The overall tone is mischievous and eccentric, with a faintly eerie, creature-like personality from the recurring eye-shaped counters. It feels like a playful Halloween or fantasy prop rather than a conventional text face, leaning into charm, oddness, and deliberate imperfection.
Likely designed to inject a one-of-a-kind, cartoonish personality into Latin lettering by combining a light, sketchy stroke with repeating interior "eye" details. The aim appears to be instant recognition and mood-setting over neutrality, turning words into graphic shapes with a slightly spooky, whimsical edge.
Uppercase forms often resemble simplified inscriptional capitals but are disrupted by the recurring interior motifs and uneven stroke modulation. Numerals follow the same doodled logic, with open, wiry constructions and occasional interior marks that make them feel illustrative rather than typographic.
