'''Chaos Control''' is a superpower where a person can control disorder, which is paradoxical but ironically occurs anyway. It’s like a contradiction showing chaos in a certain way. The power would be manipulating chaotic forces that can range from control over probability to altering reality. These superpowers do not always involve controlling chaos but could be related to it, such as being empowered by it. [[Cosmic Entity|Cosmic entities]] of chaos such as [[Anthropomorphic Personification|Anthropomorphic Personifications]] and [[Our Gods Are Greater|Gods]]
The name is derived from the ''[[Sonic the Hedgehog]]'' franchise, where Chaos Control is one of the many powers granted by the [[MacGuffin|Chaos Emeralds]].

Chaos Control is a superpower where a person can control disorder, which is paradoxical but ironically occurs anyway. It’s like a contradiction showing chaos in a certain way. The power would be manipulating chaotic forces that can range from control over probability to altering reality. These superpowers do not always involve controlling chaos but could be related to it, such as being empowered by it. Cosmic entities of chaos such as Anthropomorphic Personifications and Gods and other beings would have such power. Entities like these can even be empowered by chaos as well. However, this ability has a weakness: powers of order can counter chaos.
The name is derived from the Sonic the Hedgehog franchise, where Chaos Control is one of the many powers granted by the Chaos Emeralds.
The superpower version of Entropy and Chaos Magic.
