Chaos is one of the 6 Mysti Pillars. Represented by the color red, it is characterized by destruction, instability, randomness, entropy, movement, change, transformation, and madness.
Users
The minimum virtue to become a Chaos user is FREEDOM. This means that the user must highly value freedom, whether it is just for themselves or for the world as a whole.
Beyond the minimum, Chaos values its users who give themselves over to randomness. Impulsive people who act first and think never, with consequences being something they would never waste a second thinking about. They are highly temperamental, quickly liking or disliking something or someone. They rarely think when speaking, simply expressing everything they feel, having a high difficulty in lying and deceiving. They are brutally honest with themselves and with the world. They believe that doing the right thing is simply what they want to do.
Despite having a certain aversion to authority, Chaos users tend to respect strength a lot. It is through true actions and not false words that one gets to know someone.
Powers
Chaos Fire
Matter has countless states, but it is energy that Chaos truly loves. Fire has no defined form, is unpredictable and changes everything it touches. Chaos Fire is a red fire, being one of the most basic powers of this Mysti, with the incredible property of spreading quickly. This fire is much more violent and restless than common fire, always trying to spread and start burning things close to what it is already burning. To burn something normally you need to bring it close enough to touch the fire, but Chaos Fire is the one that gets closer to you.
Chaos Lightnings
Red lightning bolts whose energy does not dissipate after hitting a target, but instead continues to bounce from target to target, electrocuting them in sequence. The more powerful the user, the more damage the lightning causes and the more times it bounces from one target to another.

Disorder Orbs
The user create and throw spheres of red energy that explode on contact
Zero Gravity Zone
Gravity itself is something that holds you back, that doesn’t let you go, that limits you. But since it’s simply a rule in reality, how disgusting, Chaos does everything it can to circumvent this. It creates a dome, a room, where gravity can be reduced to zero. Everything is left loose and left to chance within this zone, wherever things go, whatever they hit, let it happen.
Entropic Distortion
The only constant in the universe that Chaos accepts is change, be it for better or worse. Through Entropic Distortion, the Chaos user can change the structure of anything, transforming it into anything. Whether it be objects, himself or other beings, the user can transform anything that does not demonstrate resistance or that is weaker into anything, as long as it is not a living being. For example, he can transform his own arm into a tentacle but not into an octopus.
Transforming body parts into weapons such as blades and sharp points is a joke for experienced users, some can even change the state of their bodies, transforming themselves into vapors. Although it can change any matter, Entropic Distortion does not create matter. Therefore, whatever the user changes, it can never create something larger than the original, and must respect the volume. Transforming one’s own arm into a blade is a good way to take advantage of this rule, because as the blade is much thinner than the arm, it can be much longer. This power is quite dangerous for beginners and weak users, as they may not be able to control the changes, which may even be impossible to reverse. It is also possible for the transformation to kill the user, such as turning the body into gas, but not being able to keep it together. In countless ways, this power can easily turn against the user if used carelessly.
But if used well, Entropic Distortion is a power that will be useful at any time.
Liberating Madness
For Chaos, the mind itself can be a prison. Its thoughts, fears, and insecurities prevent people from acting, doing, or living. For Chaos, any means of control or restriction is deplorable. Through Liberating Madness, the user can decrease his intelligence, becoming increasingly crazy. The crazier he becomes, the greater the improvement in the user’s physical capabilities. By removing complex thoughts and rational knowledge, the brain becomes much freer to focus on combat. The more irrational the user becomes, the stronger, more agile, and especially faster he will become. It is as if the bonds that held him back disappear. He will reach a certain point where his body will move on its own, dodging attacks and holding back arrows that would hit his vital points with his own hands. The world will begin to slow down, allowing him to run across the battlefield in a blur, cutting, stabbing, and destroying everyone he sees in front of him.
The user will need to be careful not to let madness take over him to the point where he no longer knows who is friend and enemy. Or worse, in more extreme cases, he may be unable to abandon madness, becoming permanently irrational.
Experienced users know how to deal with the risks of Liberating Madness, but it is always recommended that everyone have an amulet. Something personal that will bring him back to rationality, something that will remind him of who he is.
Unleash Chaos
It is the last thing any chaos user can do. Concentrate all instability, energy and destruction in a single point. After releasing it, a gigantic explosion occurs. The user’s death is guaranteed, but it is the last resort if he wants to take the opponent with him, however, depending on the situation, his death is not certain, as nothing in Chaos is. It is in this glorious ending that the life of a chaotic user ends, a worthy and beautiful explosion to behold.
Forever Free (Extremity)
The final and highest stage that a Chaos user can reach. He can reach it after Unleashing Chaos, or, if he understands the mystery of Chaos on such a deep and intimate level, he can reach this level at some point in his life.
When the user becomes Forever Free, he frees himself from his prison of flesh, transforming himself into a being made of pure chaotic energy. Chaos is his body now. Hunger, thirst, sleep, none of these bind him anymore, not even gravity is able to hold him back. He is free to travel without difficulty to any place he wants, enjoying what existence has to offer. On top of that, the destructive power gained with Free Forever is beyond any user’s imagination.
However, in this state, Chaos grants you rewards for having reached this level, but Chaos is a frightening and dangerous partner. Even with this new form of existence, your body needs your will to hold itself together, otherwise all the energy that you are composed of will disperse, dissolving your body like dust in the wind, and it will take much more will to reunite again. And if you can’t, you will be nothing more than a conscious wind wandering aimlessly through the universe, seeing, hearing and following everything you pass by, but without interacting with anything. Thus being… Free Forever
