A stylized calligraphic display face with a carved, pen-and-knife feel. Strokes show clear thick–thin modulation and abrupt terminals, often ending in sharp wedges, hooks, or small spurs rather than rounded finishes. Curves are slightly pinched and asymmetrical, with lively, hand-drawn irregularity and a subtly broken rhythm across the alphabet. The overall silhouette reads crisp and angular, with compact lowercase proportions and prominent, sculpted capitals.
Best suited to display settings such as titles, fantasy or historical-themed branding, posters, packaging, and book or game covers. It works well for short phrases, chapter heads, pull quotes, and signage-style compositions where its sharp terminals and lively modulation can be appreciated.
The tone evokes illuminated-manuscript and fantasy signage: dramatic, slightly mischievous, and decorative without becoming overly fussy. Its sharp flourishes and lively stroke endings give it a theatrical, tale-telling energy suited to period or mythical themes.
Likely designed to translate formal calligraphic letterforms into a bold, graphic display voice with a medieval or folkloric flavor. The intent seems to balance legibility with expressive, hand-made details—using spurred terminals, angular joins, and contrast to create a distinctive, story-driven presence.
Capitals carry strong personality through distinctive hooked and flared terminals, while the lowercase keeps a tighter, more rhythmic texture. Numerals share the same chiseled, calligraphic logic, helping headlines and short strings feel cohesive. The texture becomes busy at smaller sizes due to the pointed terminals and contrast, so it rewards generous sizing and spacing.
