Interment in these twisted Dreadnought mockeries is no honour - it is a torturous living death - So it’s no surprise that most Helbrutes are completely psychotic. The mark of the Blood God may manifest as a skull-shaped brand of black fire, the visage of a snarling canine, blood-red eyes that weep ichor or a brazen halo erupting from the skull. If that attack targets a unit that was below Half-strength when the attacking unit was selected to shoot or fight, or it targets a unit that has a Leadership characteristic of 5 or less, you can re-roll the hit roll.

Rapid fire weapons are versatile armaments capable of aimed single shots at long range or controlled bursts of fire at close quarters. Most Helbrutes are completely psychotic, even before the Warp melds the metal of their prison with the flesh inside.

From that moment forward, the nervous system of the interred victim is twinned with the artificial nerve-bundles of the Helbrute. Meanwhile, the warband to which a Helbrute owes allegiance will decorate the beast's armoured hide to their taste. Add the result in inches to the Move (M) characteristic of each model in that unit until the end of the current phase.

To be trapped in a rotting box, no arms, no legs, nothing but darkness and foetor for ever and ever until death comes to claim you at last?

The machine spirits of bellicose weapons blaze in Vashtorr’s sight just as mortal souls do to other daemons. Grandfather Nurgle bestows daemonic fecundity upon his faithful servants, sealing their gaping wounds with pulsating growths and replacing their spilt blood with curdling ichor.
