Great Unclean Ones are the Greater Daemons of Nurgle, and the fourth most disgusting things to inhabit the Warp (Nurgle is third and Typhus is second; Luke holds the top spot). Great Unclean Ones are bloated, disgusting things that are half decayed to the point that they can barely move. They are masters of germ warfare, creating horrific plagues that can decimate whole worlds in days. Despite this, Great Unclean Ones are jovial, happy beings who see themselves as spreading the gifts of Father Nurgle to the people of galaxy. Great Unclean Ones are created in the image of Nurgle himself, and are often seen as extensions of his personality.
They are usually equipped with the most cankerous of Doomsday Bells to herald the coming (And potential head-bashing) of the Grandpapy Nurgle. But when they want something truly dead, they usually carry around a Bilesword or a Great Plague Flail.
Fun fact: They're apparently the only daemons that show examples of reproduction in the fluff, as nurglings sprout from them from time to time (given that Ku'Gath was once a nurgling that grew up into a Great Unclean One, that counts). Maybe it's because Grandpa Nurgle is also a god of rebirth and life. Apparently, they're capable of breeding with humans too, given that one of the newest Warhammer Fantasy Nurgle characters Orghotts Daemonspew had a Great Unclean One for a father and a human for a mother. Have fun imagining how that worked (they probably weren't wanting for lubricant, at least).
