A decorative, calligraphy-inspired display face with sharp wedge-like terminals, sweeping entry strokes, and pronounced thick–thin modulation. Letterforms lean consistently, with narrow bodies and occasional long, blade-like ascenders/descenders that create uneven silhouettes across words. Curves are taut and slightly irregular, while straight strokes often taper into needle points, producing a scratch-cut rhythm rather than a smooth pen script. Capitals are more flamboyant and gestural than the lowercase, and the numerals echo the same tapered, high-contrast construction.
Best suited to display typography such as posters, title cards, book covers, and packaging where an expressive, uncanny mood is desired. It works well for fantasy or horror-themed branding and for short bursts of text (logos, headings, pull quotes) where the spiky calligraphic character can be appreciated.
The overall tone is theatrical and slightly sinister, with a playful, off-kilter energy. Its spiky terminals and slashing strokes suggest magic, mystery, and eccentric storytelling, leaning more toward expressive atmosphere than neutrality or refinement.
The design appears intended to evoke a hand-drawn, storybook-gothic feel through exaggerated tapering, sharp terminals, and uneven gesture. It prioritizes character and mood, using restless stroke energy and distinctive capitals to create immediate thematic impact.
Spacing and stroke endings create a lively, jittery texture in text lines, with prominent capitals and frequent diagonal movement. Small sizes may lose detail in the finer hairlines, while larger settings emphasize the dramatic terminals and irregular rhythm.
