A jagged, angular display face with faceted strokes and abrupt terminals that read as cut or chiseled rather than smoothly drawn. The letterforms lean on sharp wedges, notched joins, and irregular internal angles, creating a deliberately uneven rhythm across words. Curves are minimized or broken into planar segments, while counters tend to be tight and sometimes off-center, adding to the handwrought feel. Uppercase forms are tall and assertive, with distinctive spurs and hooks, and the numerals follow the same edgy, carved construction.
Works best for short display settings where its angular texture can be appreciated—posters, headlines, packaging callouts, game or stream overlays, and themed event materials. It is well-suited to fantasy or “old world” motifs, as well as quirky branding needing an intentionally odd, attention-grabbing title style.
The overall tone is mischievous and theatrical, blending a medieval/blackletter echo with a playful, slightly chaotic energy. It feels more like a prop or title treatment than a neutral text voice—suggesting fantasy, folklore, and tongue-in-cheek drama.
The design appears intended to deliver an intentionally irregular, one-off display voice that nods to Gothic/medieval letterform cues while exaggerating angles and quirky proportions for contemporary, playful impact. Its focus is on distinctive silhouette and personality rather than quiet readability.
Spacing and silhouette variation are a big part of the character: some glyphs read compact and blocky while others open up with protruding points, producing lively word shapes. The sharp terminals and high frequency of angles make the texture visually busy, especially as lines tighten.
