The Rotting Heralds of Nurgle: Death Guard
The Plague-Bearers of Nurgle: Death Guard
This grotesque artwork captures a bloated Death Guard warrior, clad in rotting green power armor festooned with rusted spikes, bells, and the unholy sigil of Nurgle. His decaying belly splits open with writhing tentacles and dripping pus, a testament to his master’s gift of endless corruption. A rust-caked sword drips with filth, ready to spread disease to any fool who dares stand before him. Buzzing near his shoulder, a daemonic plague fly hints at the unnatural life that festers within his armor. Once noble warriors under Primarch Mortarion, the Death Guard fell to Chaos during the Horus Heresy, forever binding themselves to the Plague God. Now, they stride through battlefields as walking pestilence, spreading sickness and despair wherever their foul boots tread, delighting in the slow decay of all life.
