Coenus is the head of the Menaphos Guard and chief gatekeeper of Menaphos. He appears briefly during the Contact! quest, during a cutscene. Since Sophanem was quarantined as a result of several plagues Coenus has monitored the bridge that connects the cities, ensuring that the disease does not spread. His brutal methods have drawn some criticism, and he is a contemptible and hated man in Sophanem.

Recently, the people of Sophanem, led by the city's High Priest, attempted to treaty with the people of Menaphos and re-establish trade-links between the two cities once more, as it has been proven by an adventurer that the plagues were not contagious. The people of Sophanem also wanted to get to Menaphos to help many of their own people back to their city. However, upon approaching the blockade separating the two cities, the Priest's people were denied access by Coenus and his guards, all wearing face masks, and when they refused to stand down, Coenus ordered his men to open fire, causing the Sophanem delegation to retreat.

During the events of Beneath Cursed Sands, Coenus appears as the Head Menaphite Guard and has been possessed by Amascut, attacking Maisa and the player when they investigate the Menaphos citizens who bypassed the quarantine and are excavating the Necropolis. He is defeated by the player, and is later seen at the end of the quest when Pharaoh Kemesis announces that preparations to re-open Menaphos are beginning.

• Coenus and his men block the High Priest's delegation.
• Coenus is present alongside Jabari at the announcement of Menaphos re-opening.
