Epidemius
From Warhammer - The Old World - Lexicanum
Epidemius, Tallyman of Nurgle, The Plagued Panjandrum, Reckoner of Mortality[2a] is a Daemonic Herald of Nurgle who is the cataloguer of all the Plaguelord's diseases.
Description
Epidemius is one of the seven (seven being the sacred number of Nurgle) Proctors of Pestilence and and the chosen Tallyman of Nurgle, whose work is to record all the diseases of father Nurgle. Epidemius' task is an unending one, which generates a large amount of scripture, so he rides a Palanquin of Nurgle to share the burden - and to more easily force a path through Nurgle's hordes and enemies alike. He is a potent caster with Nurgle's lore and is able to increase the power of himself and other Nurgle Daemons when his patron gods enemies fall in battle.[1][2a]
