Herald of Nurgle
Heralds of Nurgle, the most common of which are known as Poxbringers, are mortals who resisted Nurgle's Rot for a lengthy period. Though the disease inevitably claims them, their resistance to the ravages of the disease created a longer incubation period, spawning a more powerful Daemon. These larger, more powerful Plaguebearers often lead armies of their kind and sometimes mount Rot Flies to form squadrons of Plague Drones.[1]
Several types of Heralds of Nurgle exist, such as the Sloppity Bilepiper and Spoilpox Scrivener.
Notable Heralds of Nurgle
- Maggot Tongue
- Phugulus - grotesqly flatulent Herald that fought alongside the Infernal Tetrad army[6b]
- Verdig'rus - fought during the Siege of the Fenris System alongside the Bloodthirster Vor'hakk[6a]
Herald of Slaanesh
Heralds of Slaanesh are the most privileged and favored Daemonettes by Slaanesh. They are Slaanesh's handmaidens and courtesans. Besides their role in the Lord of Pleasure's court, they are also the fastest and most deadly of their kind and can ride Seeker Chariots into battle.[1]

These beings are the most intelligent and independent of the Pink Horrors, capable of using their sorcery forcefully enough to blast an opponent into oblivion or weave cunning illusions.
