'''Nurglings''', also known as "'''Mites of Nurgle'''", are small [[Daemon]]s that are born in the entrails of the [[Great Unclean One]]s. Just like their parent Daemon, they are shaped after [[Nurgle]] himself.
==Overview==
[[Image:Nurglings.JPG|thumb|270px220px|right|'''Nurglings''']]Nurglings are concentrated pus and contagion come to life. They start as small blobs of filth, feeding on the rancid juices of the Great Unclean One's innards until they are able to leave his body. Even then, much of their existence resolves around their "father". They roam around the Great Unclean One and bicker among themselves for his attention, though there are always some unfortunate enough to get accidentally squashed or picked up as snacks.<sup>1</sup> <sup>2</sup>
Nurglings are also eager to follow Champions of Nurgle around, be they mortal or daemonic, feeding upon the flakes of foul flesh these beings leave behind. They are willing to carry well favored [[Herald]]s upon their bestowed palanquins and make the well-being of their Champions a personal matter.
