Chosen of Nurgle

The gifts of Nurgle that do not kill you only make you stronger.

The sane shrink from contagion in all its forms, but those who become favoured by the Plague Lord are far from sane. When one becomes Nurgle’s Chosen, His mark appears on the body as three circular lesions, typically weeping poisonous pus or infested with wriggling maggots. Despite this perceived displeasure, it is a blemish sought by and reserved for His most loyal servants. Most individuals develop a supernatural tolerance to pain, despite their festering flesh, allowing them to enjoy the slow degeneration without distraction. They also become inured to battle wounds, making it very difficult to slay them – some have to be chopped to pieces before they die.
