Maggotkin of Nurgle: Festus the Leechlord

Description

Maggotkin of Nurgle: Festus the Leechlord

Festus the Leechlord has long since abandoned any trace of mercy, the former plague doctor now dishes out disease. Twisted by devotion to the cause, he has become a bloated alchemist of contagion. Riding to war atop his daemonic mount, Gathoblyt, he revels in the suffering of others. Festus eagerly tests his latest foul concoctions on the battlefields of the Mortal Realms, spreading sickness with gleeful enthusiasm.
