Festus the Leechlord is a heartless maniac, a former plague doctor transformed into a twisted alchemist of disease. His devotion to the Grandfather has seen him swell into a foul Daemon Prince. He leads Nurgle’s armies with infectious enthusiasm on the back of Gathoblyt, relishing the chance to try out new delightful brews on unwilling foes.

This multipart plastic kit builds Festus the Leechlord, a mighty Daemon Prince for your Maggotkin of Nurgle armies in games of Warhammer Age of Sigmar. Sitting atop his daemonic mount, Gathoblyt, he is ready to test out his latest concoctions on the battlefields of the Mortal Realms at the head of your forces. Few foes, no matter how hearty, can withstand the attentions of this nomadic ‘doctor’ as he reaches out with his gnarled plague staff.

As well as being a monstrous figure on the tabletop, Festus also makes for a fantastic painting project – the wealth of trinkets, bottles, diseased flesh, and mouldering cloth allows you to do some experiments of your own, working with different textures. The kit comes with a choice of two faces, offering a degree of customisation for your Daemon Prince.
