Xiphos Condensed by Iconian Fonts is a free medieval Gothic font with tall, blade-like letters and a slightly ceremonial air. The forms feel narrow and stretched, with sharp notches, swelling curves, and pointed finishes that make the font read less like everyday blackletter and more like a fantasy-era inscription.
It suits posters, game logos, chapter openers, festival branding, and book covers where a title needs that stern, old-world mood without turning into pure ornament. As a free font, it also works nicely for short headlines, title cards, and monograms, since the compressed shapes and dramatic points keep even a few letters feeling charged.
