Version 0.30: This article may not be up to date for the latest stable release of Crawl.

A being of pure chaos, its form is constantly shifting, growing and then losing eyes, mouths, claws and tentacles. It corrupts everything it touches.

Chaos spawn are weak tier-4 demons. Their chaos-branded attacks inflict random effects, and on death, they create a cloud of seething chaos for a few turns. They are occasionally found in the Abyss, Pandemonium, or created by Summon Demon.

Kill them at range. Although it's unlikely that their attacks will paralyze you, confuse you, or send you hurtling into the Abyss, it's best not to risk it.
They are one of the few demons which lack poison resistance, and they have low HD. Mephitic Cloud can turn them right back against their summoners.

Being creatures of chaos, chaos spawn can take many forms:

The difference here is purely cosmetic. In console, they instead change to a random color every turn.

 ==Useful Info==
-'''Chaos spawn''' are weak [[tier-4 demon]]s with potentially dangerous [[chaos]]-[[brand]]ed attacks; each time they hit you, they inflict a random effect on you. Possibly more dangerous are the [[cloud]]s of seething chaos which they leave behind (though the game does warn you if you try to step into one). They are occasionally found in [[the Abyss]], [[Hell]], or [[Pandemonium]], and some enemy casters may summon them with the [[Summon Demon]] spell.
