So, you can have shining chrome metal plating, or rusted iron parts carved up with battle damage. Your “inorganics” can be made of metal, or darkwood, or stone. Your “organics” can be something simple like oak or pine, or they could be interwoven thorny vines, or the roots of flowering plants that bloom around your neck as a collar. You’re stuck with essentially a humanoid shape but you can do whatever you like mismatching and customizing these “organics” and “inorganics”. Every warforged is unique and you can really let loose with the design elements. However, “organic and inorganic” gives you a huge amount of leeway. All warforged have crystalline eyes and tend to have a hinged jaw line and a prominent brow line.
Usually you have wooden “muscles” that form most of your core with metal plating serving as your “skin”. Warforged are constructed from both organic and inorganic materials. Pick whatever robot trope strikes you best and roll with it. If your game is taking place elsewhere then the sky’s the limit for your warforged. Of course, all that only applies to warforged on Eberron. Warforged must overcome prejudice, while constructing a life for themselves that they were never meant to have. Warforged are only begrudgingly accepted as “alive” by many other races, and the memory of warforged assaults and warfare is still very fresh in everyone’s memories. Playing a warforged means playing a decommissioned war machine. Every single warforged was built to fight in some capacity or another, and when the war ended these constructed conscripts were left wondering what to do with themselves. Warforged don’t really have a culture, but if they did it would just be shellshock. How did your robot pals hold up? Let’s gear up and dig into the blueprints as we go through everything you need to know.
Warforged have been kicking around for quite a while now in unearthed arcana form, but with the release of “ Eberron: Rising from the Last War” we have the genuine finished article. Technically they should “only” exist in the Eberron setting, but I’ve heard a million and one reasons why they just happen to exist elsewhere. Forged as sentient soldiers for a war they never asked to fight, the warforged are the robot race of the D&D multiverse.
