Author's note

Daimonion by Clemens Bergmann is a free modern Gothic display font with towering, narrow letters, severe diagonal cuts, and pronounced changes in stroke width throughout. Long vertical strokes dominate its silhouette, and the sharply folded joins give the lettering an austere architectural quality far removed from the dense texture of traditional blackletter faces.

Pointed arches and ironwork are an obvious visual match, so the font can become part of the stark imagery on dark album packaging, game graphics, and theatrical event posters. For publishing, its slender, ceremonial forms can set the identity of horror book covers and occult-themed magazine features.
