The Rhetoric of Chaos Magic

Magic is, in at least some modes, rhetorical. Practitioners may demand effects, sure, by coercing elemental spirits, lurking ghosts, or vain gods to do some task. But often magic is persuasive, making arguments to spirits, praising a god, or even convincing the magician’s own subconscious to ferry an intention-packed sigil into the cosmic noise in such a way that reality rewrites itself to offer up a desired change with just the right synchronicity. Chaos magic uses any, and all, of the above.
