If said individual survives the ritual, they will be greatly rewarded with a wealth enough to get the hell out of the Imperial Guard. However, Ventrillia has a proud military culture that streches back to pre-Imperial times and not wanting to risk to give up their commissions, they instead "give" their shiny rocks and whatever wealth they have to the officials of the Departmento Munitorum and Rogue Traders to not to get fed into the Imperial grinder, but to go into war zones that are fill to the brim with adventure and glory. The Ventrillian Nobles are equipped with the traditional Ventrillian uniform with helmet, Lasgun and bayonet, and an ancestral duelling sword, quickblade or the heavy Zwei-händer.
