A condensed, high-contrast serif with razor-thin hairlines and dense vertical stems. Serifs and terminals are sharply pointed and wedge-like, often extending into small daggered spurs that give the outlines a carved, prickly edge. Curves are taut and narrow, with tight counters and a crisp, upright skeleton; the overall rhythm is vertical and emphatic. Numerals and capitals echo the same knife-edged finishing, producing a consistent, decorative texture across the set.
Best suited for short display use such as posters, headlines, title cards, packaging, and entertainment or event branding where a dramatic voice is desired. It can work well for logotypes and wordmarks when used large enough for the fine hairlines and sharp spurs to remain clear.
The font conveys a dark, dramatic tone—ornate without being florid, more cut-steel than calligraphic. Its spiked terminals and stark contrast suggest gothic theatrics, mystery, and a slightly menacing elegance suited to attention-grabbing display.
The design appears intended to reinterpret a condensed modern serif through an exaggerated, daggered terminal system, prioritizing impact and character over neutrality. Its consistent vertical stress and ornamental finishing aim to deliver a bold, theatrical texture in display typography.
In text settings the dense verticality creates a striking pattern, while the hairline connections and sharp protrusions can become visually busy at smaller sizes or in long paragraphs. The distinctive terminals are a key identity trait and read strongest when given ample size and spacing.
