Plaguebearers
Plaguebearers are the Lesser Daemons of Nurgle.
Unlike other Daemons that are born from a tiny piece of a Chaos God's power splitting into a seperate being, Plaguebearers are born from the energy of mortal souls succumbing to Nurgle's Rot.3a
They manifest as foul, cyclopean beings of rotten flesh who are surrounded by swarms of flies. Each Plaguebearer counts the untold diseases and plagues of Nurgle in monotonous chants.3a Mortals who listen to these cursed chants can fall ill.2
Despite their sickly appearance, Plaguebearers pose a lethal threat to anyone they encounter since their otherworldly toughness allows them to endure most attacks with ease. 3a
A notable source of Plague Bearers is the Daemon World of Bubonicus 1
