A heavy, calligraphic display face with blackletter-leaning structure and pronounced wedge-like serifs. Strokes are largely solid and weighty, with medium internal contrast created by sharp cuts, pointed joins, and chiseled terminals rather than delicate hairlines. Many letters feature spurs and hooked finials that introduce a slight forward bite, while counters remain relatively compact, giving words a dense, banner-like rhythm. Uppercase forms are more embellished and angular, while lowercase remains sturdy and rounded in places, maintaining consistent texture across lines of text.
Best suited for headlines, titles, posters, and logo wordmarks where its dense texture and spurred detailing can read at larger sizes. It can also work for packaging, event materials, or themed graphics that benefit from a gothic or medieval accent; for longer passages, generous size and spacing help preserve clarity.
The overall tone is gothic and theatrical, evoking medieval signage and dramatic storybook titling. Its sharp spurs and carved-looking edges suggest ritual, fantasy, or old-world formality rather than casual handwriting, delivering a bold, assertive voice that feels ceremonial and attention-grabbing.
The design appears intended to translate broad-pen calligraphy and blackletter-inspired carving into a bold, contemporary display texture. Its consistent wedge terminals and angular accents prioritize strong silhouette and thematic character for branding and titling use.
The font’s personality comes from repeated chisel cuts and spurred terminals that create a textured silhouette, especially visible in letters with diagonals and curved bowls. Numerals share the same carved, wedge-ended treatment, helping mixed text keep a cohesive, poster-like presence.
