Any spell with a [Chaotic] descriptor, no matter how it is cast.2. Any of the nine spells in the Chaos Domain.3. Any clerical spell with a [Chaotic] descriptor.Personally, I've always used #3.  I can't think anyone would actually use #2.  #1 is the best for the character, but I would be interested in hearing about additional potential abuses to the one Mistwell suggested.  I mean, a lot of changes in 3.5 were to try to prevent front-loading classes so whenever someone says, "just take a level in ..." my spidey-sense starts tingling. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" /></blockquote>
