Kaos, The Primordial Maelstrom

Before the cosmos had shape, before order was carved from the void, there was Kaos. They are the raw, untamed force from which all things emerged—the storm that knows no master, the entropy that unravels the careful threads of existence. Where other deities seek purpose, Kaos is purpose itself: the embodiment of disorder, the endless surge of unpredictability that resists all forms of control.
To understand Kaos is to lose oneself in the madness of what they represent. They do not scheme, they do not plan, and they do not rule. They simply are, a force of relentless upheaval, ever churning, ever consuming. Where they tread, reality fractures, minds shatter, and the laws of creation dissolve into pure, unbridled anarchy.
They are not evil, for evil requires intent. They are not good, for good requires order. They are beyond such petty concepts, beyond morality itself. Kaos is the laugh of a madman, the wild storm tearing through civilization, the void screaming with voices that never should have been.

Personality & Mythos

Kaos is a shifting, incomprehensible force with no fixed form. Some claim they appear as a swirling storm of colors that have no name. Others speak of a figure clad in rags of pure distortion, a voice that shifts from whisper to deafening roar between syllables. Some claim they have seen Kaos as a hundred-eyed beast, each eye spinning in different directions, or as a churning mass of screaming faces that vanish as soon as they are noticed.
Their laughter, when heard, is said to drive mortals to gibbering madness, for it contains no joy, no malice—only pure, unfiltered chaos. They speak in riddles that contradict themselves, in truths that unravel sanity, in words that shift meaning between breath and echo.
Kaos does not seek followers, yet they have them. They do not spread teachings, yet their name is whispered by those who have gazed too long into the void. They do not wage war, yet kingdoms have fallen in their name. Their existence alone is enough to inspire madness, and those who hear their call are forever changed.
Legends say that even the gods cannot fully comprehend Kaos. Some believe that they predate creation itself, a remnant of the formless void that once was. Others claim that they are the inevitable collapse of all things, a future that cannot be avoided. Whatever the truth, one thing is certain—Kaos does not belong, yet they cannot be erased.
