Is Wormtail an Occlumens or an open book?

First, my apologies for snipping some ideas that I may get back to
later (I agree that PP is not an Occlumens but disagree that Snape is
possible  murderer. LV, as I've argued elsewhere, seems to find uses
for his DEs that suit their abilities, and he had murderers and
Muggle-baiters aplenty without using Snape for that sort of dirty work.)

I just wanted to note that I, too, have thought about the initiation
ceremony, which I envision as being held in front of masked Death
Eaters whose identity the initiate does not necessarily know. It
would, IMO, involve an oath of lifetime loyalty (serve LV or die) and
a Dark Mark burned painfully into the arm of the initiate. Nothing
else would be necessary. Anyone who backed out would be killed.
