History

In the year 547wr, the Steel Clan Dwarves created the first warforged using a similar blueprint to the Iron Golem. More would be made and sold to Nobles and governments as mercenaries. In the year 560wr, the Gnomes managed to figure out how the dwarves built the Warforged, and would use the design to make their own variation. First was the scout, and in 600wr, eventually the Envoy. In 700wr, the Dwarves would share their designs with the Humans, and in 1000wr, the humans managed to find out how to mass produce them. Before this, warforged would take minimum of 8 months. In 2083wr, a town made entirely of Warforged was created. This town was relatively untouched, due to Warforged not being organic enough to be targeted by Slaad, and where less affected by the Limbostuff than normal creatures, with at most their wood and Steel would warp around each other, making it painful to move the effected's arms. Otherwise, the Calamity event did not affect the Warforged as much.   In the year 1200wr, The Steel Clan Dwarves would make the Warforged Titan, a Warforged that was built to destroy their Giant enemies. WHile they weren't able to make many, about 10 where sent deep into Mount Oilusra, and would destroy most Fire Giants in the area. Due to it's nature, they are only found in the Steel Dwarve's clan caverns.   In the year 1900wr, A Warforged Colossus was discovered, a Warforged bigger than the Tarrasque. It was named Lothric, and it is unknown who made it, why they made it, or why it was found in the middle of the ocean. In 8/21/2367wr, it had begun moving.
