A heavy, angular display face with faceted strokes and sharply cut terminals. The letterforms are built from broad verticals and crisp diagonal joins, with a consistent straight-edge construction that reads like carved or stamped shapes rather than brush-written forms. Counters are narrow and mostly rectangular, and many glyphs use pointed caps, notched corners, and wedge-like feet that create a tight, dense texture in words. Uppercase forms are tall and blocky; lowercase keeps a similarly rigid skeleton with simplified blackletter cues and limited curvature, producing strong silhouette rhythm and clear vertical emphasis.
Best suited for short, high-impact settings such as headlines, titles, posters, wordmarks, packaging labels, and album or event graphics. It performs especially well when you want a historic or gothic flavor, and will be most legible at medium-to-large sizes where the interior cut-ins and narrow counters have room to breathe.
The overall tone is medieval and ceremonial, evoking manuscripts, heraldry, and gothic signage. Its weight and sharpness project authority and intensity, with a dramatic, old-world presence that feels formal and slightly aggressive.
The design appears intended to deliver a bold blackletter impression with simplified, geometric carving and strong vertical rhythm, prioritizing impact and period atmosphere over neutral readability in long text.
Stroke endings frequently resolve into triangular facets, and several letters incorporate small interior cut-ins that add texture without relying on thin hairlines. Spacing appears naturally tight in running text, which reinforces the dark, rhythmic “wall of type” typical of blackletter-inspired display settings.
