A decorative serif with a highly angular, chamfered construction that turns curves into faceted, near-octagonal forms. Strokes are heavy and mostly monoline in feel, with pointed wedge serifs and small spur-like terminals that sharpen corners and joins. Counters tend to be squarish and compact, giving letters a dense, armored texture, while the overall rhythm stays fairly even despite noticeable width variation across glyphs. Numerals and capitals echo the same beveled geometry, with clipped corners and crisp internal angles that keep forms rigid and architectural.
Best suited to display applications such as posters, headlines, title cards, and logo wordmarks where its chamfered detailing can be appreciated. It can also work for packaging or labels seeking a crafted, old-world mood, and for themed interfaces (e.g., games) where a gothic or heraldic flavor supports the setting.
The font projects a gothic, medieval-leaning tone—ceremonial, forceful, and slightly ominous. Its faceted contours and pointed terminals suggest metalwork, stone carving, and heraldic signage, creating a dramatic, story-driven voice suited to fantasy or historical themes.
Likely designed to evoke a carved, forged, or engraved aesthetic by translating typical serif forms into faceted geometry and pointed terminals. The intention appears to be strong visual identity and thematic atmosphere rather than quiet neutrality in long-form reading.
At text sizes the sharp corners and narrow interior spaces can start to darken lines, while at display sizes the distinctive beveling reads clearly and becomes the main character. The design mixes structured Roman proportions with blackletter-like sharpness, creating a hybrid that feels traditional but deliberately stylized.
