Author's note

Respess Capitals Excessive by l'Abecedarienne is a free distressed blackletter display font with the look of a worn woodcut alphabet. The caps feel medieval and unruly, with blunt heavy forms, ragged edges, and gnawed-out gaps that make the letters look stamped, scraped, and weathered rather than neatly drawn.

That rough, historical tone suits poster titles, album covers, horror branding, zine mastheads, and event flyers where a free font can bring in grit without feeling modern or clean. It also works for short title cards, chapter openers, and monogram-like initials, because the letters carry enough torn texture to hold a page or screen on their own.
