A decorative serif with strongly angular construction and consistent, medium-weight strokes. Curves are largely replaced by straight segments and chamfered corners, producing an octagonal, faceted silhouette across bowls and rounds. Serifs are small but pronounced and often wedge-like, with sharp terminals that keep the overall rhythm crisp. Proportions are generally compact with a sturdy baseline presence, while counters stay open enough for legibility in short passages. The result is a geometric, carved look that reads more like cut letterforms than penned strokes.
Best suited to titles, branding marks, and short-form display where its faceted details can be appreciated. It works well for themed posters, game or fantasy-related interfaces, labels, and signage that benefits from a carved or heraldic feel. For longer reading, it will be most effective at larger sizes with generous spacing.
The face evokes a medieval and blackletter-adjacent tone without fully adopting traditional textura forms. Its faceted geometry feels architectural and forged, lending a ceremonial, heraldic mood. Overall it suggests fantasy, historical signage, and dramatic titling rather than everyday text neutrality.
The design appears intended to merge blackletter and inscriptional cues with a geometric, chamfered build, creating a sturdy display serif that feels cut, forged, or engraved. Its consistent angles and sharp terminals prioritize character and atmosphere while keeping letterforms structured and readable.
Distinctive chamfers unify the alphabet, especially in round letters and numerals, creating a consistent “beveled” texture in lines of text. The mix of angular capitals and more modular lowercase gives it a display-forward personality while retaining a clear, upright stance.
