Nurglings (since 6th Edition)

Nurglings are small (Roughly a foot high at best) disease ridden daemons who follow the Chaos Hordes into battle, spreading disease and causing fear. They vaguely resemble zombie Orc Snotlings, walking slime Balls or Buboes filled with dirt and pus. As their name suggests, they are daemonic creations of the Chaos God Nurgle.

Nurglings come in large Swarms or infest Champions, Demon Princes or Greater Demons of Nurgle - the Great Unclean Ones. It is said about Nurglings,'...they are the beloved children of Father Nurgle, eating his dirt, playing around his rotting carcass and toying with his bowels'.

In the past Nurglings sometimes also carried around mighty champions of their god on some kinde of portable throne that was called Palanquin of Nurgle.

Also Nurglings are known, to be part of the Carnival of Chaos, that roams the land of the Empire. This Gang is resembling a troupe of artists, that performe mock plays for the rural folks but in fact is concerned spreading disease and plague.
