A hand-drawn print face with wiry, slightly scratchy strokes and subtly jagged terminals that mimic pen or brush texture. Forms are generally upright with narrow proportions and a lively, uneven rhythm created by irregular stroke edges, small flare-like serifs, and occasional tapered joins. Curves are open and organic rather than geometric, and spacing feels intentionally loose and variable, reinforcing an unpolished, handmade look. Numerals and punctuation follow the same inked, sketch-like construction for a consistent color on the page.
Works well for short display text where personality matters—posters, book covers, game/UI headings, packaging, and editorial pull quotes. It’s especially suited to whimsical, crafty, or lightly eerie themes, and performs best at medium-to-large sizes where the drawn texture and irregular terminals remain clear.
The overall tone is playful and a little mischievous, like handwritten headings in a sketchbook or a lightly spooky story title. Its roughened edges and spiky details add character and a DIY warmth that reads as casual and expressive rather than formal.
The design appears intended to capture an informal, hand-inked print style with controlled legibility and deliberate imperfections. Its narrow, animated shapes and textured edges suggest a focus on distinctive titles and expressive branding rather than neutral reading copy.
The texture is most visible in verticals and at stroke endings, where tiny burrs and hooks appear, producing a lively silhouette at display sizes. The narrow build and compact lowercase make it feel more like a titling hand than a text hand, especially as lines get longer.
