	=== Personhood Clause ===		=== Personhood Clause ===
	Per the Species Provision Act of Peska 109 and the Revised Species Provision Act of Kanata 89, the laws of Rauratoshan should be understood such that the word "person" refers to any being capable of ~~sentient~~ thought. This includes those created through artificial means, if they are capable of demonstrating ~~sentience~~.		Per the Species Provision Act of Peska 109 and the Revised Species Provision Act of Kanata 89, the laws of Rauratoshan should be understood such that the word "person" refers to any being capable of sapient thought. This includes those created through artificial means, if they are capable of demonstrating sapience.

	On Pezen, this includes kanvas, sketches, and primal figures. On Ngearth, this also includes humans, merfolk, Kyawcennites, Lavvakcesaans, Aylongamites, villagers, allays, piglins, and endermen. All of the above categories solely refer to biological identity, so for example, a [[Astaryuu/Youmu\|Lavvakcesaan socially identifying as a kitsune]] is still a person.

	According to the Royal Court of Justice's decision in ''Kahlesspuqlod v. Underflow Storage'', amending the Revised Species Provision Act in Kanata 99, villagers and piglins are unpersoned if they are zombified, as zombies appear incapable of ~~sentient~~ thought.

	Per the Support Animal Protection Act of Peska 12, support animals must be registered with an official body, as in the Pet Registry Act, but are subject to the same privileges outlined in that Act. No medical reason is to be deemed necessary by the Rauratoshan Office of Census and Demographics for registration of a support animal. However, certain local registries may differ in this respect. As of ruling by the Rauratoshan Court of Justice in ''Pekoyarit v. Asánraho'', working animals in use by the pet's owner, such as horses, donkeys, and ghasts, are valid support animals, but must be registered to be protected.

			In terms of Nguhcraft: The above means that ghasts, dogs, horses, and so on that are left behind in Rauratoshan need not be returned to their owner unless they are nametagged. However, most will probably try and find out who left it behind anyhow.

	Per the Pet Registry Act of Dúrisa 62, a non-person animal owned by a person must be registered to that person with an official body, such as a local kennel, the district registry, or the Rauratoshan Office of Census and Demographics. Such registry involves notating the pet's name and the owner's full name, as well as a code or other identifying feature aside from the name, and a description or picture of both. For example, an ID card for the person, and a photo and name of the pet, would suffice. This is to prevent theft and ensure that if the animal is lost, it can be recovered. No crime is wrought for not doing so. However, ~~if someone steals a~~ registered pet, ~~they are to~~ be ~~charged with kidnapping~~.
