“GRAVEBOUND” is a Gothic (DIY) text effect created with FontVibe AI.

Create a wide horizontal band banner, 21:9. Render only the exact word “GRAVEBOUND” as the sole readable text, centered and spanning 88% of the canvas width. Custom heavy-metal gothic lettering: ultra-bold wide blackletter-derived capitals, compressed counters, fractured vertical strokes, sharp spear-point terminals, asymmetric thorn-like spikes projecting from selected joints, irregular torn-metal edges, tight deliberate spacing. Letters are forged from near-black oxidized iron with charcoal pitting, hairline silver abrasion on raised edges, and thin cold steel rim light tracing the spikes. Keep every character legible at banner scale; no skulls, no flames, no extra words, no logos. Set the word against a deep matte-black void with a low horizontal bank of graphite smoke behind the baseline, sparse airborne ash flecks, and a restrained desaturated crimson glow leaking through a few cracks between letters. Use hard side lighting from upper left, faint red backlight from lower right, crisp silhouette, high contrast, controlled bloom only on the thin metal edge highlights. The composition is a single monumental word with generous black margins above and below, optimized for a stage scrim, social header, or embroidered back-patch banner. High-resolution dark-metal texture, clean vector-like overall silhouette, no mockup, no frame.
