'''Ignatius Grulgor''' was [[captain]] of the second company of the [[Death Guard]] [[Space Marine Legion|legion]] during the [[Horus Heresy]]. He has since been elevated into a [[Daemon Prince]].
==Biography==
He was born on [[Barbarus]] and like many of his legion from that planet, despised some of the old traditions that his brothers from [[Terra]] practised. He was very headstrong, and always looked for a chance to impress his [[Primarch]] [[Mortarion]]. At the beginning of the [[Horus Heresy]] he sided with the traitors, and was stationed on the [[Eisenstein]] with Captain [[Garro]] and his loyal marines, who he was supposed to eliminate. He failed, and was killed by a virus that escaped from a damaged [[virus bomb]]. However while in the [[warp]], after the [[Gellar Field]] on the Eisenstein began to fail, Grulgor and his fellow traitors were gifted by [[Nurgle]] with new life. They proceeded to attack the loyal Death Guard once again. Grulgor managed to infect one of Garro's men with [[Nurgle's Rot]], and almost triumphed over Garro. However, Garro ordered a emergency drop out of the warp. With out it's infernal power sustaining them, Grulgor and his corrupted brethren were killed, their souls sucked back into the warp.
