The Spellbound Archive Series - Magic Type # 13 - Chaos Magic
The Magical Codex - Building the Magical World on the Fantastical World of Erudus
What is Chaos Magic?
The 13th key is very rare. Only one person lived to master this magic and that was Kiri Briaras. She was the person who survived the bacteria on Tumbgala. She killed herself ten sols after receiving this power.
This magic allows individuals to alter the fabric of existence by, using any other key of magic, or using more than one key, to strike. The maga does not have to study the other keys to do this.
Chaos magic is also unstable. Even with an individual experienced in chaos magic, its power can implode on itself causing pain and destruction.
Because this key rewrites the underlying laws of reality, the powers are almost limitless. The energy that travels through the body is so intense that physically it can age or kill the body. The brain can be scrambled. Individuals lose their ability to survive and get along with the people around them. They tend to sink into a well of hatred and disappears
Even one use of this power is dangerous. The individual’s body will falters in some way quickly after. Mentally, a person can snap at any time.
Individuals can only use great chaos magic twice before it will kill them. Others with minor powers may live longer, but their lives are miserable, and ultimately the magic kills them.

Who Uses Chaos Magic?
No one. While elements of this magic may appear in other individuals, a master of Chaos Magic has not been created since Kiri. There are many people born with nominal chaos powers. But they have not in the past progressed beyond the novice power stage.
Whispers in the galaxies suggests that this type of magic exists in small doses in some of the greatest magical beings at this moment.
Limitations and Costs of Chaos Magic
Some of the limitations and costs of this key have already been discussed,
Masters of this key can be very powerful. Their understanding of how to use the ancient languages in charms, and their understanding of how to chant words to physically affect things, can be combined to destroy massive objects and affect the way large crowds of people act. This can happen at any time with little effort.
Society, Technology and Daily Structures
People fear chaos magic. In many cultures in the universe, when a child is born with inherit chaos abilities, she is hunted down and killed.
Men and women, once they reach their middle years are tracked by the Magaus Alliance to ensure their safety and the public’s safety.
Chaos magic is studied in the great halls of the Magaus Allliance, so that they can be prepared for a future master of chaos.
