This Nurgle cosplay is nasty to behold, and is one of the coolest original character cosplays we’ve seen in a while! All hail chaos!
While some cosplayers recreate classic characters from their favorite fandoms, others are inspired to create something new. Original characters (known as “OCs”) are a way for cosplayers to bring something new and fresh to a fandom they enjoy. This week, we’re taking a first look at an exciting and gruesome new cosplay – the Nurgle Sister of Battle cosplay by Sadae Cosplay.

This cosplay is a really groovy amalgamation of two different factions from Warhammer 40k.The Neverborn of Nurgle is known for corrupting characters throughout the Warhammer galaxy. With this cosplay, a Sister of Battle has been likewise corrupted, leading to some nasty wounds and special effects. The resulting cosplay is REALLY groovy to see. Sadae Cosplay recently completed this cosplay for Japan Expo, and we have the first look at the resulting photoshoot with photographer Rodoleufeu. We’re also including a few of her social media images to balance out the set. We hope you enjoy this gory Sister of Battle creation!

“Indeed the very process of construction and creation foreshadows destruction and decay. The palace of today is tomorrow’s ruin, the maiden of the morning is the crone of the night, and the hope of a moment is but the foundation stone of everlasting regret.“ Image Credit: KiriKazu cosplay/photographe
“I gazed at his magnificence, my vision completely filled with his glorious girth. All around me was flesh and smiling flies. Within his bulk I spied lesser minions, suckling on his leaking entrails. At his feet pools of pus and other bodily fluids gathered, in which his children splashed and played with glee. It was a blessing to behold such glory and joy. It was with great sadness that I awoke into a world filled with Imperial dogma and admonitions. I knew then the path I must walk.“
“His enemies shall wither and die. His allies shall wither and die. The universe and all within it shall wither and die. And when the Great Corruption has settled over the land, and permeated the very foundations of reality itself, then shall the Lord of All rise from the rot and ruin, spread his arms wide to reclaim all his dutiful children…“
“Entropy is all-consuming, fed by all struggles against it. Thus, even to hope is to despair. So despair, and in your desperation, find purpose.“ Image Credit: Les Clichés du Lièvre

“Rejoice, children! Your Father brings you hope in your darkest hour. Let those who would accept his gifts come forth and receive the blessings of the Lord of Decay. Cast away your crutches and doubts. Put aside beliefs in a false master who fills your hearts with lies, sorrow, and regrets. Embrace instead the glorious gifts of rot and decay. Revel in the beauty of putrescence and be reborn a living symbol of perseverance.“
