The '''Nemesis Wurm''' is a grotesque self-replicating [[Nurgle]] [[Scrap Code]] disease, that [[Typhus]] created in order to destroy the [[Forge World]] [[Metalica]], during the [[Charadon Campaign]].{{Fn|1}}
By infecting the [[Forge World]] with the Nemesis Wurm, [[Typhus]] sought to disprove [[Metalica]]'s belief that machines could overcome any [[Warp]] contagions. If he succeeded in doing so, then the Forge World would suffer a slow and painful death.{{Fn|1}}
During the height of the Charadon Campaign Typhus was successful in delivering the Nemesis Wurm into Metalica's heart, defiling the planet but appearing to eventually be contained by Mechanicum repair teams. However whenever the disease is sought contained it emerges once more, creating an endless cycle of infection and purge.{{Fn|2}}
