Blightwings

"What is that thing?!""I don't know, Patrick. But whatever it is...IT MUST'VE EATEN WORMY!" Plague Drones are those Plaguebearers whose favorability with the Plague God has granted them personal flying steeds in the form of Rot Flies. These colossal insects are considered Nurgle's most spiteful creatures, with their black, soulless eyes never blinking as they sink their proboscises into the flesh of the enemy. They are greatly prized by plaguebearers for their swiftness, able to fly circles around all other demons of the Flesh Legions. In battle, the near deafening buzzing of their wings is unmistakable. On the approach, the Rot Fly falls upon its foe, sinking its forelegs into the target and latching onto its head. The Rot Fly's proboscis sucks the essence entirely out of its victim, followed by the beast swallowing the head whole. These heads are kept in the abdomen of the creature, and can often be seen bulging out of its sides in a horrific reminder to what fate awaits those mortals the Rot Fly consumes. The Plaguebearers, while still armed with Plagueswords, are also gifted with Death's Head Blight Grenades. This explosive ordinance showers the impact zone with disease-ridden shrapnel and toxic fumes, giving the unit a strong ranged attack.
