Septicus Seven
Septicus Seven, the Lord of the Seventh Manse, Keeper of the Seven Codes of Life, Seven of the Many Plagues was a Great Unclean One who commands the Septicus Legion and was the second in command to the Greater Daemon Ku'Gath within Nurgle's elite Plague Guard.[1a]
He was famous in that he often carried with him the glistening stomach sac of some unfortunate creature with protruding hollow antlers, on which he played like on the bagpipe, summoning such a terrible sounds that it exasperated even his fellow daemons. During the later years of the Plague Wars, Septicus aided the Plague Guard[1a] in claiming the Ultramar world Iax for Nurgle[1b]. The Plague Guard then invaded Parmenio and later clashed with the Imperium forces led by Lord Commander Roboute Guilliman. During the battle, Septicus fought Guilliman, but his essence was destroyed by the Sword of the Emperor of the Lord Commander.[2][3]
