A stylized, irregular display face with sharp, chiseled strokes and subtly uneven geometry that feels hand-cut rather than mechanically drawn. Forms mix straight segments with blunt wedges and occasional curved bowls, creating a lively, jittery rhythm across words. Stroke terminals are mostly pointed or notched, and counters tend to be small and somewhat asymmetric. The lowercase shows a simplified, handwritten construction with compact bowls and narrow joins, while numerals echo the same carved, slightly warped silhouettes for a cohesive set.
Best suited to short-to-medium display settings such as posters, headlines, event flyers, game or film titles, and expressive packaging. It can work for playful branding accents or chapter openers where a strong handmade texture is desirable, but it will feel busy for dense body copy.
The overall tone is playful and mischievous, with a slightly eerie, theatrical edge. Its handmade roughness reads as quirky and animated, evoking craft signage, campy horror, and storybook titling rather than formal typography.
The design appears intended to deliver a one-off, handcrafted personality—combining carved, angular detailing with irregular proportions to create an energetic, slightly spooky display voice that stands out at a glance.
Spacing and letterfit feel intentionally uneven to reinforce the quirky cadence; round letters like O/Q show faceted curvature, and diagonals often end in blade-like points. The sample text demonstrates that the face keeps its character in longer lines, but the irregularities become a dominant texture quickly.
