Great Unclean One
Great Unclean Ones are the Greater Daemons of Nurgle, and the second most disgusting things to inhabit the Warp (Nurgle 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.
