First, only Immortals induct for Entropy. Basically this is because a mortal "leading" the cabal is a bit antithetical. Also, for the most part, I don't induct. I've done perhaps a half dozen in the past two years, but since I was doing interviews for the two or three years before that, I got rather burned out by them. So Ishmael and Eyllivea are whom you should contact.
As for the role itself, it is one of the easiest and yet one of the most difficult, I think, on CF. It's easy because it requires no real knolwedge of the game or Thera -- Chaos is a real life concept that you can discover/theorize/ponder on your own. It's one of the most difficult because there is not set philosophy to adhere to -- there are no "requirements" as you ask. Other cabals have a rather well-known creed (i.e., Battle hates magic, Arbiters enforce the Laws, etc.) and so as long as you RP those creed, you'll do fine. But Entropy you have to figure out your own version of the creed of Chaos and then figure out how to RP it.
Finally, as to what Chaos is, it would sort of defeat the principles of Chaos to give them to you and make you learn that those were the only ones. What I will tell you is that Chaos is more than just being against Order -- Chaos is randomness, not just disorder.
