An italicized blackletter with sharp, faceted strokes and distinctly broken forms. Terminals are cut on steep angles, creating a chiseled, zig-zag rhythm across stems, arms, and diagonals. The design maintains consistent stroke logic while allowing letter-to-letter variation in width and silhouette, producing a lively, hand-drawn texture. Counters tend to be narrow and angular, and many joins resolve into pointed notches or wedge-like corners that emphasize a hard, crystalline geometry.
Best suited to display typography where its fractured blackletter forms can be appreciated—posters, title treatments, album artwork, event flyers, and brand marks seeking a gothic or medieval edge. It can work for short bursts of text in larger sizes, but the dense angles and narrow counters make it less appropriate for long-form reading.
The overall tone is medieval and intense, with an assertive, ritualistic feel. Its slanted, jagged construction reads energetic and slightly menacing, evoking gothic signage, metal and tattoo aesthetics, and dramatic historical references.
The design appears intended to reinterpret blackletter through a hand-cut, blade-like italic, prioritizing dramatic silhouette, historical flavor, and high visual impact over neutral legibility. The controlled inconsistency and variable letter widths suggest a deliberate move toward an expressive, crafted texture.
Capitals are especially ornamental and irregular, with distinctive hooked or spur-like details that increase individuality at display sizes. Numerals follow the same angular cutting and oblique stress, keeping the set visually cohesive for posters and headlines.
