*'''Rheumalicae Surpetiss:''' Rheumalicae is a particularly wicked chymist whose fascination with the bonds of addiction has allowed him to reap a horrendous tally of souls in [[Nurgle]]’s name. His diseases are incredibly subtle in nature, often taking decades to slowly dissolve their victims from within, while the various stimulants and narcotics which flow through the victims’ bloodstream inure them to the pain of their chronic condition. Eventually, as the necrotic toxins take their toll, Rheumalicae begins their indoctrination in the ways of his vile patron with promises of eternal freedom from the torments of their rotting frames.{{Fn|3f}}
*'''The Forlorn Hope:''' Medicae Cruisers are common within the [[Departmento Munitorum]], often seeing extensive service during the many brutal offensives perpetrated in the Emperor’s name. The Forlorn Hope was one such vessel; however, its massive surgery theatres and pristine apothecariums were swiftly overwhelmed with contagion following a cataclysmic brush with Chaos renegades. The valiant crew fought desperately against this nightmarish pathogen that crammed the ship’s holds with the dead and dying, but they could not stem the implacable tide of corruption, and so Nurgle’s champions won a terrible victory for their dread patron.{{Fn|3f}}
