Topic: Chaotic Discord


  
  Chaos - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Mathematically chaos means an aperiodic deterministic behavior which is very sensitive to its initial conditions, i.e., infinitesimal perturbations of boundary conditions for a chaotic dynamic system originate finite variations of the orbit in the phase space; see chaos theory.
Chaos is a poetic or metaphysical concept evoking a sense of discord, whereas entropy is a concretely defined function of a physical or communication system.
Chaotic systems, with no central control, are able to create "order", which is the pattern that humans recognize.

 Dragonlance Nexus: Discord Daemon - Fandom: Rules
Discord daemons seem to have a particular hate for focused spellcasters, perhaps the Father of All and of Nothing spawned them for that purpose, but that is just speculation, regardless the discord daemon's special abilities make them well suited for killing spellcasters, which they do with near reckless abandon.
Discord daemons stand nearly 7 feet tall and are lean, entirely covered with loose fitting metal scales that grow out of their skin, these act as an effective armor and also seem to be intrical in generating their aura of pandemonium.
Discord daemons have a tendancy to completely ignore primal casters, such as sorcerers, mystics, and bards until all other opponents are dealt with, they are chaotic by nature however and this is only a tendancy.

 Disciples of Discord
During the godwars this cabal served as messengers for the different armies while secretly causing chaos and discord among the ranks, all for the greater glory of Nyarlathotep.
All that remained of The Disciples of Discord was the Messenger and a handful of followers hidden in a pyramid complex deep in the Great Desert.
Familiars: When a Disciple acquires a familiar, it is always a chaotic being, normally a native of Limbo, the Abyss, or Pandemonium and the DM should make a list to randomly role such a creature for a Disciple P.C. Magic Items: Like all cabalists, The Disciples of Discord make magic items unique to their brotherhood.

Legislators who opposed gay marriage stormed out of the House chamber, angry they were being blocked from voting.

 All's Well, Ends Well
Clifton Ko is an old-hand at these Chinese New Year ensemble comedies and once again throws together the elements that had previously hit such a chord with local audiences.
The use of the term 'throw together' isn't accidental though as the film displays much of the chaotic discord that is often bemoaned by critics of Hong Kong comedy.
There's no doubt that some of the Hollywood pastiches do hit the mark and raise the odd smile, but these are spread too thinly to be sustained throughout the full 90 minute duration.

Dixon suggests that Spenser converts Ovid's trope of degeneration from the ages of gold to iron in the Metamorphoses to an entropic spiral, an Ovidian cone, with concord and unity at the apex and chaotic discord at the base.
The dialogue that Dixon sets up with new historicism in the early chapters might have extended and complicated both his interpretation and our sense of Spenser's own relation to a rhetorical tradition that allowed the poet, however briefly, to transcend the chaos of history.

The initial schisms: the disastrous revolt against Uthman (r.a.)[2], the clash between Ali (r.a.) and Talha, and then with Mu`awiyah[3], the bloody scissions of the Kharijites[4] - all these drove knives of discord into the Muslim body politic almost from the outset.
