Anyone know of any monk PrC that don't require you to be lawful?

Enlightened Fist and Drunken Master might be two of them (this is off the top of my head), but keep in mind they're geared for a Lawful Monk heritage. As far as I know, there are no official PrCs that increase things like the Displacement Stance or the Flailing Strikes progression.

Having said that, you can check out my custom-made PrC, the Cat Fu Fighter (link in my sig). Should be useful for any Chaos Monk, but you can only really appreciate if you're somewhat familiar with Ranma 1/2.

So, please check it out? And comment? Helpful advice? Anything?

Does it have to be a PrC?

If you're just looking for a class to get into and still advance your Monk abilities... take two feats: Monastic Training and Tashalatora; then multiclass into Psychic Warrior. That's a combo for an uber-Monk. There are plenty of great powers that a Monk can take advantage of; plus, you can make up for the feats spent since PsyWar gets bonus ones.

Or, if you want to stick more with the Monk flavor... There's a PrC called Fist of Zoeken (aka: Psionic Fist):

Enlightened Fist, Sacred Fist, Psionic Fist. Also, while they don't give you a lot of what normal monk PrCs give, Drunken master and Initiate of the Draconic Mysteries. I don't have the book Tashalatora is from so I can't say... Doesn't it require lawful alignment somehow?

While not a PrC, Barbarian levels mix well with Chaos Monk ones. Grab Superior Unarmed Strike to cover what you lose and think about Raging with the Chaos Monk abilities mixed in as well.

The big book of most you need to know about those adorable little cuddly critters, on whose little back D&D is half-based on, commonly referred to by the lazy and plebeians as the Draconomicon.
