Primordial Chaos - Hades II fanart

We love a gender non-conforming deity around here. They're looking STUNNING in the new game. (Uncensored version on my other socials.)

Prints available here!

I might be reading way too much into this, but after the first look at the new Chaos design I think there might be some kind of a dialectic going on within themself.

The original design is more amorphous and neutral in its presentation, sure. It emphasizes two things to me:

that Chaos is constantly churning on the inside, and

that they birthed the chtonic entities (or at least Nyx and Erebus, which is interesting since in Hades games, Nyx is personified and Erebus is a whole ass biome) and they constantly spawn new potential entities or incarnations of themself, as represented by fetuses and faces protruding from the different parts of their gnarly body.

The new design shows us a well put together androgynous figure in a sparkly suit (though leaning a little more towards femme presentation), holding a skull with a piece of a spine still attached.

As a matter of fact, I believe that the skull is one of the Hades 1 Chaos themself. It has the familiar Chaos sigil on its forehead, and there's a fetus coming out of its mouth. Which to me hints that between the events of Hades 1 and Hades 2, the Primordial Originator's avatar reached some breaking point and had to be reborn. Perhaps Kronos/ Chronos (???) breaking out sowed so much turmoil in the world that Primordial Chaos has inadvertently spread themself thin, and their own realm had to be reformed. In that condition, it would make sense for them to hold themself tighter whenever they need to speak to someone.

The new look feels so very... corporate and luminous, aside from being more anthropomorphic. The look reminds us of the Furies from the first game. To me, it represents form over substance, which would add an interesting dialectical beat to Chaos: even within themself, they can fluctuate between having more or less Form; the Form, too, is already anticipated to come out of Chaos. This new design is controversial because it brings Chaos closer to Form and Light, something that feels paradoxical. They have what looks like a pocket watch in their lapel - they are related to Time!

Which would push the understanding of Chaos towards the Aristotelian concept of change, making them something like Prime Potentiality - the domain where things "wait" for the right timing or the right circumstances to become. This interpretation seems to go well with how H1 Chaos could never be fully present in the world, could never visit their children; the world is where possibilities get actualized into, and Chaos is the conceptualized "point" where everything actualizes from.

And isn't this paradoxical feel about Chaos's new design consistent with their previous presentation as a force in flux that holds multiple internal voices and pairs of logical contradictions, and loves all that's unpredictable?

(Disclaimer: I'm not a classicist, I'm a philosopher, so I appreciate extra on insight on that. I love Chaos's design from H1 and I want to understand the new one.)

this is basically how that minor prophecy goes, right

#i love the whole concept of Amusing Chaos #they're just like ''hey bring that egg I gave you next time you fight your dad #it won't do anything I just think it'll be fucking hilarious'' #and the fact that they LAUGH after you beat Hades with it is excellent dkjfgh #my art #hades #hades game #hades supergiant #hades fanart #zagreus #chaos #primordial chaos

[beyondthepeople]

I'm so intrigued by Chaos! The new design has characteristics of Nyx, Than and Meg so maybe they trying to bond with the family (?) Also, the little baby attached to their old form, aaaargh so many questions

Chaos design symbolism!!!!

Okay so I have so many thoughts about the change in Chaos's design and if don't share them I might just implode. Basically I think about the change in their design denotes a cycle of rebirth and death/ decomposition. In their Hades 1 design they look like this:

I view the amorphous faces as an embodiment of their experiences throughout a long phase in their existence. I would also like to point out in this design they are growing a baby.

This is very similar to the new design, where what I believe the head of Chaos's Hades 1 designs head is growing another baby.

So from this I think that Chaos is a constant state of change and rebirth as a microcosm of the universe under the big crunch theory.

Which basically states that the universe is always expanding until it implodes, creates a subsequent big bang, and continues as such. Based on that the design from Hades 1 would be placed on this timeline towards the end before the implosion, and the Hades 2 design right after the big bang.

Another thing that I find very interesting is that Chaos seems to be materialist in nature as they have elements of their past in both their designs, denoting that creation does not exist in a vacuum. This is done with the faces incorporated into their body, and holding the skull of their previous form respectively.

Gah! I love symbolism!! Of course the deity of creation is a perpetual state of change that reflects a theory of the timeline of the universe while at the same time internally representing their previous selves as an embodiment of the materialist nature of existence!!!!

Things I found out in my last play session.

Spoilers below!

(1) Bathing with these old bones is not possible. Bro needs a break too

(2) Narcissus is mean king, even worse than Theseus

(3) No matter what you say, this shade will always be annoyed after you beat Scylla

Honestly, I would also feel disgruntled if someone assassinated the group I paid to see.

(4) Hestia and Zeus' conversation

He definitely isn't marriage material.

(5) Chaos YOU WHAT?

Hey theoretically if I was a child of chaos would I still be allowed in Camp Half Blood?

- Call me 🌌 /Space anon :)

Hi, Space Anon😉!

I’ve never heard of a child of Chaos! While technically possible, it’s unprecedented!

To answer your question, however, yes. You would be allowed at camp. The only beings that are unwelcome are those who truly intend to harm its occupants. That means monsters, mostly. And some demigods/legacies that are Octavian a danger to our people (*cough*the anemic loser*cough*).

Same goes for New Rome. There rules are a little different, though, so you’d probably need to spend a little more time talking with them if you want to stay there instead.

Anyways, hope to see you soon!

Hey can ask Dating Chaos would include?

I'm not to sure if you meant Chaos from Greek mythology or one from a different media. So..I'll just go with Greek myth Chaos.

Fandom: Hades / Greek mythology.

Warnings; slightly ooc Chaos, Nyx, Erebus, Eros and some of Chaos' other children are mentioned, grammar mistakes, brief mentions of Zeus and other gods, Zagreus is also mentioned a few times.

General note: I only know so much about Greek mythology/Chaos. And google can only give me so much. So, please don't correct me. This is being written for fun.

Comments and reblogs are much appreciated other then that please enjoy :)

Dating Chaos would include

How exactly you managed to end up with a primordial being such as Chaos, is beyond anyone.

But congratulations on now dating the being that created some, if not most of✨e a r t h✨ it's self.

Seeing as they are basically just a void, they'll try to pick a form best suitable for you to handle.

Chaos is located in between Earth and Tartarus.

With that being said, they'll visit you because trying to visit them would be more then difficult and they don't need you getting hurt.

Chaos is a very powerful being, even more powerful than Zeus. So you don't worry about Zeus and other Olympian gods bothering you.

And if other gods or even mortals are brave enough to bother you, or gods forbid hurt you.

Chaos will deal with them. By having their children help or in their own ways. Either way, it'll be the most miserable day of the mortal's or gods life.

Chaos enjoys telling you stories about their children, and how each of them grew to become the deities they are today. They'll also tell you stories about Zagreus. And what he's been up too.

Oh, and they'll gladly listen to any stories you have to tell.

Most of their children are happy and or interested in meeting you. While others, would like to at least introduce themselves, but are too busy.

Erebus and Nyx are probably the first two to properly introduce themselves. Eros would catch on and eventually introduce themselves as well, and so on.

Dates often include, the two of you enjoying ambrosia and nectar while watching over whatever new drama Zeus had created.

That or the two of you are having a lazy day.

Chaos enjoys holding you, as odd as it sounds, whenever they do get the chance to hold you. They feel relaxed.

And it doesn't matter. If other primordial gods are around, Chaos will always hold you in the palm of their hands.

They'll also give you very interesting gifts.

Nothing too crazy but nothing simple either.

Most of the gifts are space and or earth themed. Seeing as they were the first being to appear and had helped create earth.

If you give them something in return, they'll hold onto it forever.
