Feculent Gnarlmaw
Feculent Gnarlmaws are Daemonic carnivorous trees that grow within the Garden of Nurgle.[1]
Description
These Warp-flora feature an enormous mouth that runs up the centre of their trunks, with dozens of razor-sharp teeth lining it, while the few stunted branches that grow from Gnarlmaws feature[1] Plague Bells, tentacles and pustulent boils. They also gather clouds of fatted Plague Flies around them[2] and the base of the Gnarlmaws' trunks are linked with the skulls of those who have been foolish enough to venture near them.[1]
While they normally reside within the Garden of Nurgle, these Warp-flora will rapidly sprout up outside of his realm wherever a large number of the Chaos God's Daemons are congregating[1] or Nurgle's most grievous foulness reigns.[2] On the battlefield they aid the Plague God's armies, as the Feculent Gnarlmaws belch clouds of Daemonic spores and shed rot-wet blossom to carpet the maggot-churned earth beneath their boughs.[1] They also exude an aura of supernatural disease and the dull tolling of the Gnarlmaws' Plague Bells draws Nurgle's Daemons to the battlefield in swarms.[2]
