'''Plaguebearers''' are the [[Lesser Daemons]] of Nurgle.
These '''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 created born from the energy of mortals who fell victim mortal souls succumbing to [[Nurgle's Rot]].<sup>3a</sup>
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.<sup>3a</sup> Mortals who listen to these cursed chants can fall ill.<sup>2</sup>
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. <sup>3a</sup>
A notable source of Plague Bearers is the [[Daemon World of Bubonicus]] <sup>1</sup>
