Daemon Prince of Nurgle

Those raised to Daemonhood by the Plague Lord walk the world revered by His grandchildren and feared by all.

Nurgle’s mortal champions, who excel in bringing plague and Ruin to civilised lands, are sometimes rewarded with Daemonhood. It is a rare occurrence, for most die long before they pile enough worm-riddled corpses high upon His decrepit altars. For those who achieve the transformation, their bodies enlarge as horns, talons, tails, and sometimes wings sprout from their changing forms. All manner of contagion erupts over their new bodies, yet they treasure each festering cyst and scabrous blister more than ever. In the mortal realm, their leadership is rarely questioned at the helm of Nurgle’s hordes, venerated as veritable gods but forever to be glorified slaves of the Plague Lord.

Strengths & Weaknesses

  • Daemon Prince
    A Daemon Prince is gifted ruinous powers by the Chaos Gods to twist and shape him into the true form of Chaos
  • Spellcaster
    This unit can cast spells.
  • Armour-Piercing
    The damage of armour-piercing weapons mostly ignores the armour of the target, making them the ideal choice against heavily-armoured enemies. They are often heavier and attack at a slower rate though, making them less efficient against poorly-armoured targets.
  • Poison Attacks
    The [[img:ui/battle ui/ability_icons/wh_main_unit_contact_poison.png]]poisonous attacks of this unit weaken the target's speed and damage.
