Chronos is one of the playable Gods in SMITE.

Lore

Existence is measured in age. How many years has a mortal lived? What was the construction date of the Parthenon? When were the cosmos formed? Time begins at birth, at creation. But, inevitably, time for all things comes to an end.

Except, of course, time itself.

Bearer of the clock of eternity, rimmed by signs of the Zodiac, the Keeper of Time, Chronos, counts every tick of the second hand, preventing interference with that essential forward momentum.

If he knows who or when the eternal clock was wound, Chronos does not tell, but upon the first stroke, he came to be. Emptiness was the ocean, then, and his only companion was Ananke, Queen of Fate. Together, their powers divided the vastness into heaven and earth and sea and sky. Thereafter, Chronos became an observer, the watchman of infinity.

Patient to a fault, Chronos knows no urgency. He does not fear pain, or war, or death, for he is time itself and will outlast all. For this reason, his presence on the field of battle is alarming. This war between Gods must portend a conclusion so dire as to threaten the very existence of time. Perhaps, all the Gods should begin counting the seconds of the eternal clock. There may be few of them remaining.

Trivia

  • Chronos' Fallen Lord skin was based on the fan concept that won the SMITE's 2nd Birthday's Skin Contest.
  • One of Chronos' phoenix kill quotes, "In time even stars burn out!", is a reference to the same quote from the novelization of Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith.
  • Two of Chronos' taunts, "Time brings all things to pass!" and "Time brings all things to pass, even you!", is a reference to the Ancient Greek tragedy Prometheus Bound which was written by the Ancient Greek tragedian Aeschylus.
  • One of Chronos' taunts, "The two most powerful warriors are peace and time!", is a reference to a quote made by the Russian novelist Leo Tolstoy.
  • One of Chronos' jokes, "Time is like a big ball of wibbly wobbly, timey wimey stuff.", and the name of his recolor skin, Timelord, are both references to the British science-fiction television programme Doctor Who.
  • One of Chronos' jokes, "Like sands through the hourglass, so are the days of our lives.", is a direct reference to the intro of the American soap opera Days of our Lives.
  • Super Chronos 64's directed taunt towards Janus, "You weren't thinking with portals!", is a reference to the puzzle videogame Portal.
