They worship the Chaos God Nurgle and in return he infests their armor with pestilence and disease. The Primarch of the Death Guard is Mortarion, who has been elevated to Daemon Prince status. Their original homeworld of Barbarus has been destroyed.
History
Not many neckbeards dare to paint them up. Before the coming of Mortarion, they were known as the Dusk Raiders due to their early-evening assaults, using the confusion of the afternoon twilight to catch their enemies off-guard, during dinner. Because Mortarion dreaded the lack of badassery, and he as a Primarch was all "hurr durr grim reaper death decay" he named them the Death Guard instead, and had them repaint their armor to the charming colors of algae-green and mudslick brownwhite. They got dirty after they started swimming in the drops.
Mortarion also had a personal guard, the speechless and silent Death Shroud, who were known to be within 49 (Get it? Nurgle's holy number is seven and 49 in seven squared?) paces of their Primarch, Morty.
Oh, and they enjoyed drinking a cup of venomous, poison bile to commemorate victory. Mortarion drinks that stuff like water, though his captains have trouble holding their guts inside after drinking.
All in all, the Death Guard are fun, poison-drinking aloof martial warriors before Horus threw the party, rotting avatars of AIDS Syphilis and decay after the party was finished. That must've been one hell of a party.
