A heavy, slanted display face with blackletter-inspired structures softened into rounded, brush-like forms. Strokes are thick and compact with medium contrast, and edges show an intentionally irregular, inked texture that creates small notches and swelling terminals. The letterforms lean forward with a lively, handwritten rhythm, combining broken-style silhouettes with smoother curves and occasional swashy joins. Counters are relatively tight and the lowercase sits low, giving the text a dense, dark color on the page.
Best suited for short to medium-length display settings where its dense texture and ornate forms can be appreciated—posters, headlines, title treatments, and packaging. It can also work for logo wordmarks and book or album covers that aim for a gothic or historical mood, especially at larger sizes.
The overall tone is gothic and old-world, with a theatrical, storybook feel. Its roughened, hand-inked texture adds warmth and a slightly rugged character, making it feel more crafted than formal. The result reads as medieval-inspired but approachable, suited to expressive, dramatic messaging.
The design appears intended to reinterpret blackletter through a hand-drawn, brush-ink approach—keeping the traditional broken-letter flavor while rounding and roughening the forms for a more organic, contemporary texture. Its emphasis is on strong presence, mood, and craft rather than neutral, extended reading.
The font’s visual weight and tight internal space make spacing and line breaks important for clarity, especially in longer passages. Numerals and capitals share the same bold, calligraphic texture, helping mixed-content settings maintain a consistent, poster-like presence.
