A heavy display serif with pronounced flared terminals and sharp, wedge-like serifs that create a spiky silhouette. Strokes stay broadly even while the ends swell and taper into pointed corners, producing strong vertical emphasis and dense, compact counters. The letterforms feel slightly condensed in places, with tight internal spaces and robust bowls; numerals and capitals carry a carved, emblematic presence. Overall rhythm is bold and punchy, with distinctive triangular notches and crisp corners that read clearly at headline sizes.
Best suited to headlines, titles, and short display settings where its flared terminals and spiky serifs can be appreciated. It works well for posters, book covers, packaging, and brand marks aiming for a gothic or heritage-leaning voice, and can add a dramatic accent to pull quotes or section headers.
The font conveys a gothic, old-world tone—part blackletter-adjacent and part theatrical display serif. Its sharp wedges and weighty presence feel dramatic and slightly ominous, suggesting folklore, fantasy, or vintage signage rather than modern neutrality.
The design appears intended as a bold, attention-grabbing display serif that blends traditional serif structure with aggressive, flared endings. Its consistent weight and chiseled details prioritize personality and impact over quiet readability, aiming to evoke a vintage, gothic, or storybook atmosphere.
In text, the dense color and tight counters can make long passages feel heavy, while the distinctive terminal shapes add character and texture. Round letters show a slightly squared, chiseled feel at joins, reinforcing a carved or engraved impression.
