The skin of this severed head is drawn tightly over the skull so that every detail of the bone beneath stands out starkly. Crawling with flies and maggots, this profane relic reeks of evil. The Death Heads of Nurgle are common tools of war used by the thralls of the Plaguelord. Taking the skulls of foes they conquer, they cover them with wax mixed with blood to make them watertight. Then they draw pus from a Great Unclean One and pour it into the brain cavity before sealing it with more wax. The result is a missile which will burst when it is thrown, scattering its noxious contents over the unfortunate enemy.
