[WH40K] Do followers of Nurgle enjoy their diseased state or is it something they have to suffer?
gpt
It's a mixed bag really. Nurgle isn't just the god of plague and disease but also hopelessness, stoicism, decay and death. Nurgle appreciates those who accept their fate instead of fighting it.

Nurgle grants his boon to those who want it. Nurgle appreciates the man who prays for the strength to endure famine or disease rather than a cure or a meal. And Nurgle's first reward is the ability to do just that.

His followers look so diseased because Nurgle doesn't heal them. He grants them the ability to suffer any hardship without discomfort and without dying from it. You'll still rot and fester but it won't bother you.

And that opens the door to true devotion. You start to see the world for what it really is. Death, decay, ruination. It's inevitable, it can't be stopped and those who try are fools who oppose father Nurgle's great works.

Nurgle's warriors fight against those who try to resist decay. They spread Nurgle's gifts of plague and ruination while stopping those who have a chance to halt it's progress.
