Spellcasting[]
Due to the Chaos housed within you, you gain the power to cast spells of a chaotic origin.
Cantrips[]

Chaos Spell[]
At 1st level, your soul contains six 1st-level spells of any class of your choice. Your soul is the repository of the spells you know, except your cantrips, which are fixed in your mind.
Preparing and casting spells[]
The Chaos soul table shows how many spell slots you have of 1st level or higher. To cast one of these spells, you must expend a slot of the spells level or higher. You regain all expended spell slots when you finish a long rest. You prepare the list of Chaos Soul spells that are available for you to cast. To do so, choose a number of Chaos Soul spells equal to your wisdom modifier + your Chaos Soul level (minimum of one spell). The spells must be of a level for which you have spell slots. For example if you're a 3rd-level Chaos Soul, You have four first level and two 2nd level spell slots . With a Wisdom of 16, your list of prepared spells can include six spells of 1st or 2nd level, in any combination,chosen from your very soul. If you prepare the first level spell Chaos bolt, you can cast it using a first level or a second level spell slot. Casting the spell doesn't remove it from your list of prepared spells. You can change your list of prepared spells when you finish a long rest. Preparing a new list of Chaos spells requires time spent studying the arcane and memorizing the incantations and gestures you must make to cast the spell: at least one minute per spell level for each spell on your list.
Spellcasting Ability[]
Wisdom is your spellcasting ability for your Chaos Soul Spells, since you learn Your spells through the power in your soul. You ues your Wisdom whenever a spell refers to your spell casting ability.

Senses of Chaos[]
Beginning at 12th level you gain the ability Blind Sight, and choose one ability from the enhance ability list to have always active.
Chaos and Order[]
Beginning at 17th level when you cast a spell, you can choose to apply one or both of the following effects to the spell. The decision to add the effect(s) must be made during casting. By channeling the churning chaos of Kythri, you can add ld6--3 to the spell's save DC. Unlike with damage rolls, the minimum result is not 1; for example, if you roll a 2 on the 1d6, the DC is reduced by 1. This choice is made at the time of casting, and has no effect on a spell that does not allow a save. The adjusted save DC is the same for all creatures that must save against the spell (you don't roll separately for each affected creature). By focusing the perfect order of Daanvi, you can choose to set the result of any spell's variable, numeric effect as one-half the maximum possible result. For example, a 9th-level wizard who casts fireball normally deals 9d6 points of damage; choosing to use this ability means the fireball deals 27 points of damage (half of 54, which is the maximum result of 9d6). The spell can still be affected by Empower Spell and other such feats and effects that require it to have a variable, numeric effect (using the previous example, empowering the fireball would cause it to deal 150% of 27 points of damage, or 40 points of damage, as if the result of the variable, numeric effect were 27).
Final Form[]
Beginning at 20th level as a bonus action you can take the form of an Ancient Chaos Dragon found here:https://www.dandwiki.com/wiki/Ancient_Chaos_Dragon_(5e_Creature)
