Editing Protectorate of Menoth (section)

==The Protectorate & Non-Humans==

Menoth has a very poor track record with non-humans. Menoth (besides being a dick) is also very clearly the god of [[Humanity Fuck Yeah|mankind]]. This is, to be fair, slightly justified, since many non-humans used to worship the Devourer Wurm, or at least that's what the Synod thought (Rightly so when they were the Morgoth). Because of this, ogruns, trollkin and gobbers were killed on sight for much of the Chruch's early history. The Protectorate has mostly cooled off on the xenophobia, partially because they don't expect non-humans to follow their faith. Non-humans are generally still not allowed to live within the Protectorate's borders, they aren't being exterminated either. Unless they interfere with Protectorate business or are Devourer Wurm worshippers.

The Protectorate as a whole have a much better relationship with the dwarves of Rhul and the elves if Ios, although they're still not well-trusted. For instance, the Protectorate will hire dwarf and elf mercenaries (Especially elven Mage hunters, whose goals line up very well with Menoth's), but they're still fairly unwelcome within the Protectorate proper. This stance is changing, however. The dwarves and elves are two of the few races that are free to worship their own pantheons in the Protectorate. This comes from the fact that they weren't created by Menoth. The Protectorate is also seeking to establish closer ties with both Rhul and Ios.
