Chronos Priest (PvZ2)

The Chronos Priest is a fan-made zombie made for ancient greece-themed worlds
Approximatively every 15 seconds, he will zap a nearby tile in a 5x5 area ; on this tile will be generated a random portal, that will start creating zombies depending on the current difficulty, with for example veteran zombies being summoned during hard levels. Once damaged, he can zap the plant that attacked him, turning it back into sun, but this ability can only be used every 20 seconds
==Origins and appearance==
He wears a white toga, sandals, and has black hairs as well as a small beard. In his right hand he carries a thin scepter, more akin to a walking stick, and with a large sickle-like blade at its end, encapsulating an egg-shaped blue orb, that generates its zaps.
He is based on Chronos, a ancient greek god representing time and fate, but is scepter's end, which looks like a sickle is reminescent of the titan Cronos, who had the sickle as a symbol and is often identified as the latter.
==Almanac Entry==
==Overview==
He has approximatively 600 HP, and will lose his right arm after suffering from 300 damage before dying at 600 damage per shot taken
==Strategies==
Altough he is quite slow, this zombie is very threatening due to his supporting abilities, that not only allows him to spawn even more zombies, but also to provide him with even more support, leading to the appearance of even more zombies. Even if you manage to vanquish him, he will still leave a portal, making him potentially dangerous whatever the way you kill him. His secondary ability is dangerous too ; the first plant to attack it will be converted into sun. This can be very dangerous if you rely on plants with a very high cost, since you will get your sun back but won't be able to replace them directly, leading possibly to your whole defense crumbling within seconds, which is especially dangerous if you end up with many of these zombies. Thankfully, both of his abilities have a considerable cooldown, so you can prepare your defenses before the assault. First, try to prepare many instant-kills. They are unaffected by the zombie's powers due to their nature, so preparing a few of them is obviously mandatory if you want to keep your defenses. You can also rely on plants with a fast recharge, but this requires a considerably high amount of seed packets and isn't the best tactic when he is paired with other enemies. His primary ability is harder to counter, but thankfully the number of portals summoned can lead to a complete clogging of their range, so try to focus on vanquishing the newly spawned zombies instead of the Chronos Priests since they will be stalled themselves a bit by their own ability. Finally, its ability to summon a portal at his death is problematic but very easy to nullify if they are at the same spot, since portals won't stack up. Due to this, the best counter is probably the Hot Date because it will negate their secondary ability and reduce drastically the effects of its primary
==Trivia==
*His scepter was first supposed to be a clock but this was changed to be more accurate
*Many of his animations are taken from both the Wizard Zombie and the Healer Zombie
