While this could indeed be a class example of such "bigotry", sometimes it's necessary to take a step back. You've just entered a fantasy world, populated by dragons, centaurs and elves. Did you consider for a moment the theme of the game? Perhaps there is a valid excuse for immigrants. Maybe some of the cabbage-eating desert-dwelling nomads have been driven from their lands by a foul beast or somesuch.

And, even if it was an example of such bigotry, should we also rant and rage every time someone puts in a "fat merchant", "school bully", or other NPC that might be considered stereotyping? If the answer to that last question is "no", consider why, and get back to me.
