I've looked all over the place, over every handbook, googled it, but I can't seem to find the Chaos monk variant. All I know is that it drops the Lawful alignment requirement and requires Chaotic instead. In a nutshell, what does it do?

Dude. Calm down. It'll be OK.
Oh, and try crystal keep; the Chaos Monk var is in a dragon mag, but I fergit which one.
Edit: Trades Flurry of blows for extra damage die/dice (depending on level). Swaps out purity of body/wholeness of body for some sort of miss chance. Trades some other abilities for retry save on to mind affecting 1/day, AFAIK.
Helps?

I just googled and found it. It's in Dragon 335. I don't have that issue yet, though.

Been thinking of redoing that class for months now. I have a few evil ideas. Did I say evil? I meant good.  |

You is WRONG! It's WAAAY more fricking awesome than that! Instead of +1 attack, you get a d3-1 extra attacks - and you get more from there! Good times. I LOVE that class. |

It always seems like the barrels around here have something in them.

What's that you say? Pounce with rage and extra attacks? Why YES, YES please!

Yes. Chaos Monk is as like a gift from the gods for melee classes. Up to 6 extra attacks by later levels, works with pounce/rage, and stacked on Shou Disciple is truly nasty for some skirmisher style super pouncers (7 attacks at highest bonus with all that extra damage? YES PLEASE).

Y'all are very right; I was quite wrong in my reading of the class precis from CK. Very sorry, Kuroimaken, if I misled you.

No biggie. Shame it's on Dragon Mag, though (no wonder I couldn't find it anywhere!).
Not like it makes much of a difference now. I only needed one level of monk anyways. >.>;;
