A narrow, upright blackletter with broken, angular strokes and pronounced contrast between thick verticals and thin connecting hairlines. The forms are built from segmented curves and pointed joins, with sharp wedge-like terminals and occasional spur details that give edges a chiseled look. Counters are tight and rhythm is strongly vertical, while capitals show more decorative inflection and asymmetry than the lowercase. The numerals follow the same fractured, calligraphic construction, maintaining a consistent dark texture in text settings.
Well suited for headlines and short display lines in themed work—fantasy or historical posters, album artwork, packaging labels, and book or game titles. It can also support ceremonial applications like invitations or certificate-style compositions where a traditional, authoritative mood is desired.
The font conveys a medieval, ceremonial tone associated with manuscripts, heraldry, and Gothic signage. Its dense vertical rhythm and sharp angles create a formal, authoritative presence with a dramatic, historic character.
The design appears intended to evoke classic manuscript and sign-painting blackletter through disciplined vertical structure, fractured stroke construction, and crisp, pointed terminals, prioritizing historic atmosphere and strong typographic color in display use.
In running text the letterspacing and compressed proportions create a continuous, dark color, so it reads best at display sizes where the internal breaks and pointed terminals remain distinct. The dotted letters use diamond-like marks, reinforcing the faceted, cut-stroke aesthetic.
