How Dare looks.
Nine colours. One loud face, used sparingly. A calm system for the rest.
Palette
White and Black are the canvas and ink. The seven accents are fills, always with Black text.

FK Screamer is the Dare heading face, always the heavier cut (wght 700). No synthetic bold.
Use it more than once a screen when each use has an aesthetic reason: page title, section openers, featured and card titles, poster samples, the wordmark.
Keep real scale contrast with the body: page title ~7×, section ~4×, card titles ~1.8× body size. Nothing under 24px.
Line-height 1 (1.05 on card titles), tracking +0.01em. Uppercase for page titles; section and card titles keep their written case.
Never for body copy, UI labels, buttons, form fields, captions or small headings.
Timeless Sans tops out at Semibold 600: Medium for body, Semibold for emphasis. Never the Black/Heavy 800 cut.
Dare Black on White/accents, or White on Black. Cornflower only for the active nav item on Black.
