A compact, angular sans with strong vertical emphasis and squared-off bowls and counters. Strokes are largely monolinear but frequently end in tapered, pointed terminals that create a blade-like silhouette, especially on verticals and diagonals. Curves are minimized into faceted arcs, and many shapes feel constructed from straight segments with hard corners. Spacing is tight and the overall rhythm is spiky yet controlled, with distinctive notches and inward cuts that add texture without becoming ornamental.
Best suited to display settings such as posters, title treatments, logos, packaging, and entertainment graphics where a distinctive, gothic-leaning voice is desired. It performs well in short to medium text runs for thematic copy, but its sharp details and tight rhythm are most effective at larger sizes.
The tone is dark and ceremonial, evoking gothic signage, fantasy world-building, and occult or arcane themes. Its sharp terminals and condensed posture give it an intense, slightly aggressive voice that reads as dramatic and stylized rather than neutral.
The design appears intended to reinterpret a sans framework through a blackletter-inspired, blade-terminal vocabulary—delivering an immediately recognizable, fantasy-leaning texture while keeping letterforms largely constructed and clean.
Uppercase and lowercase share a consistent constructed logic, with simplified forms that prioritize silhouette over conventional humanist detail. Numerals follow the same angular, cut-in construction, helping headings and short lines maintain a cohesive, emblematic look.
