Each clansman proudly carries long scars on his cheeks, which he gets from his coming-of-age ritual. To create the most impressive scars, ash is commonly rubbed into the fresh wounds. Normally Attilans wear their hair long and open. Attilans are infamous for never bathing or cleaning their clothing. They believe that washing is an insult to the spirits of water. This superstition could not be defeated even by the [[priest]]s of the [[Adeptus Ministorum]]. This peculiar trait has led to the Attilans being the butt of many jokes by their fellow [[guardsmen]]. A well-known proverb has it that that the smell of an Attilan is just as powerful a weapon as his war lance.{{Fn|1}}
The Rough Riders' largest battle was on the world of [[Loxar IV]], where they led the largest cavalry charge in the Imperium's history to defeat [[Necron]] forces.{{Fn|22a}}
