Vertic Blightsire is a Great Unclean One, a Greater Daemon sent upon the mortal world to deliver Grandfather Nurgle’s love onto the various races that live there. While most Great Unclean Ones aim for critical mass, Vertic enjoys tormenting those mortals who live out simple lives on the countryside, tending to their crops and livestock. He calls it “tying up loose ends”, content to catch little fish while his poxbrothers devastate cities and metropolises. The truth is, Vertic enjoys the countryside...and tormenting every creeping creature on it with his maladies.

Blightsire is rather obscure in comparison to famous rotbringers like Ku’gath Plaguefather, though he does have the distinction of being the sire of the Bastard-King of Ice-Horn Peak, Orghotts Daemonspew. The boy has managed to gain notoriety where Vertic prefers the shadows so he can do his own thing. He had little, if anything, to do with the raising of the boy but if asked about him, will respond as any proud father would about their son’s successful exploits.

Vertic is somewhat larger than a normal Great Unclean One, despite being typical rather than exalted. Despite his relative obscurity, he does have some titles, such as The Wandering Blight, Wickmaster, or the more well known Candle-Crown. This due to the Great Unclean Ones rather symmetrical horns bearing candles of green warp-flame. It isn’t clear why he has this accoutrement, aside from it’s aesthetic appeal.

Like most Unclean Ones, Vertic is good natured and easy going, helped along by his accent. He will entertain all comers readily, unless they’re Tzeentchian, then a good portion of his jolly nature melts away into annoyance and snideness. More intelligent than he seems, Vertic is learned in morbidity, disease, and mortal physiology as most of his kin are. He has a particularly robust knowledge on animals...and how to break the species barrier with certain diseases. Vertic was the devious mind behind many zoonotic diseases, the most famous of which being Bovine Frenzy.
