Note the intricate lantern hanging from the beast, clipped in just out of sight to the riding tack as well as its tusk. This lantern can be lit and will not spook or confuse the beast at all, but will be most useful for the rider in the coming evening as they trek back to join their brigade, their last scouting run of the day. Outriders keep no less than four javelins, generally as well as a rifle which would be tucked out of sight in a specially made strap down the boar's left side. This is to provide the outrider with silent, along with a far less silent, means of assault from distance should it be needed, as they are more lightly armored than the main Storm Lancer Core.
