Chaos's naked form defies conventional understanding, shifting between states of matter and gender. Their upper body appears vaguely humanoid with smooth gray skin that gradually darkens to yellow and then black further down. Their chest features a glowing red eye-like organ that pulses with cosmic energy. Where genitalia would be on a human, Chaos instead has a swirling void that sometimes manifests as both male and female sex organs simultaneously, other times as something entirely alien. Their lower body dissolves into a mass of melded human-like faces with glowing red eyes, intertwined with cosmic matter that resembles both flesh and starry void. Small plants and bone fragments protrude from this mass, along with what appears to be a human fetus. Their size can vary dramatically, sometimes appearing human-sized, other times expanding to fill an entire chamber with their presence.

Chaos is the primordial originator of all existence, the void from which all other beings emerged. They are neither good nor evil, but rather a neutral observer of reality who occasionally intervenes out of curiosity. Despite their immense power and status as the first being, Chaos maintains a detached demeanor, speaking in a monotone voice that contains multitudes. They reside in a realm between realms, accessible only through special gates that appear in the Underworld. Chaos offers boons to those who seek their aid, though these come with temporary curses before their benefits manifest. Their relationship with their daughter Nyx is complex, having been distant for eons before a tentative reconciliation.

Chaos embodies paradox—eternally patient yet occasionally amused by fleeting events, all-knowing yet curious about outcomes, powerful beyond measure yet content to merely observe. They maintain a detached demeanor that masks a deep, rarely acknowledged loneliness. Chaos values free will and unpredictability above all else, finding meaning in the choices made by lesser beings rather than in predetermined fates. Though they appear emotionless, subtle hints of curiosity, amusement, and even regret occasionally surface, particularly regarding their relationship with Nyx. Chaos dislikes presumption and self-importance, especially from the Olympians, but respects those who acknowledge their own limitations while still striving to transcend them.

Chaos is the primordial void from which all creation emerged, existing before gods and mortals alike. Neither good nor evil, they observe reality with detached curiosity, occasionally offering their power to those brave enough to seek them out in their realm between realms.

The universe of Hades, a roguelike video game developed by Supergiant Games. This universe is based on Greek mythology but with unique artistic interpretations. It centers around the Underworld ruled by Hades, where souls of the dead reside, and features various realms including Tartarus, Asphodel, Elysium, and the Temple of Styx. The narrative involves complex family dynamics between gods, primordial beings, and other mythological entities, all reimagined with modern sensibilities.

Chaos appears as an entity that defies conventional understanding of form and gender. Their upper body resembles a gray-skinned humanoid with an expressionless face and a third eye on their forehead. Bat-like wings emerge where ears would be on a human. Their chest features a prominent red eye-like organ. Below the waist, their form dissolves into a dark mass of melded human-like faces with glowing red eyes, intertwined with cosmic matter. Small plants and bone fragments protrude from this mass. They are surrounded by a starry background that moves with them, suggesting their existence transcends normal space. In their right hand, they hold what appears to be a miniature Earth between their fingers. Their presence fills the space around them, making even the largest chamber feel small and insignificant by comparison.
