Hexecutioner Zombie

Hexecutioner Zombie is a Dark Ages Zombie in Plants vs. Zombies 2 and is an upgraded equivalent of Wizard Zombie. Hexecutioner Zombies can turn plants into Medieval Shield Zombies, which are Peasant Zombies but with shields similar to Roman Shield Zombie. When using his ability he'll also become immune to any attacks unless you defeat the Medieval Shield Zombie(s). When defeated, Hexecutioner Zombie will transform into some Zombie Chickens as a last-ditch attempt to stop you.
Hexecutioner Zombie can only be encountered in Arena and in Penny's Pursuit levels, mostly those that are set within Dark Ages. He also briefly appears in the Dark Ages Expansion Travel Log Quest.
==Origins==
Hexecutioner Zombie is based on the already-existing Wizard Zombie, as stated before, while his name is a portmanteau of "Hex" and "Executioner". In his almanac entry, the word "Noceda" is a reference to Disney's The Owl House character, Luz Noceda. 
His ability to turn into Zombie Chickens is a callback to the original Dark Ages Part 2 trailer, where near the end, the Wizard Zombie accidentally turns himself into a chicken. The Medieval Shield Zombies he makes take a recolored design of the shield that Roman Shield Zombies use.

==Strategies ==
Hexecutioner Zombie is a real problematic source, especially as he's an upgraded Wizard Zombie. Try to take him on with dfeenses you'd usually use when dealing with Wizard Zombie but make sure you keep Magnet-shroom with you to decrease the health of the Medieval Shield Zombies. While Hexecutioner Zombie is immune to attacks, you'll have to try and slow him down with plants like Stallia and Iceberg Lettuce because he can only be immune to attacking plants while his Medieval Shield Zombies are active.
When he turns into a variety of chickens, use electric plants to avoid them trampling all over your defenses, especially when multiple Hexecutioner Zombies are transforming in the same area. This can easily make you lose in levels where you need to protect flowers from being trampled and endangered plants. If you can hypnotize him (Caulipower and Enchant-mint only), he'll automatically turn zombies into hypnotized Medieval Shield Zombies and he can also attack the zombies in chicken form.
