Anathrax the Foetid, originally known as Antonan Thrax, is a Daemon Prince of Nurgle.[1]

Born a human Administratum official on Unctious, in actuality Thrax was leader of a Chaos Cult of Nurgle known as the Cult of Amber. Thrax eventually organized a coup on Unctious, using his cult's own sorcery combined with his access to Adeptus Astra Telepathica auguries to summon a great Warp Storm known as the Crow's Eye which soon enveloped the entire region. As the power of Nurgle spilled onto Unctious from the Warp, Thrax was decayed down to his bones along with the entire planetary populace. However, for his part in the plan Thrax was rewarded by the Lord of Decay, transforming him into a Daemon Prince. He later went on to lead the Servants of Ruin, a Chaos coalition meant to counter the Imperial Crusade of Fire.[1]
