Hey, this sounds like just the game I've been looking for, I'm new to this forum but not to PbP games.
Right now I'm thinking of playing a Warforged Artificer 2/Fighter 2, using the Warforged Artificer (Races of Eberron) and Dungeon Crasher (Dungeonscape) substitution levels. I can PM you the details on these if you need them, and I'll try to get a sheet up tonight after work.
EDIT: Oh, and here are my ability score rolls.

Sounds like it could be fun. I'll get to work on something ASAP- initial concept is skill-monkey/recon specialist. First choice would be a shifter Scout (if Scout doesn't work, then Rogue/Ranger split).
Initial rolls: http://invisiblecastle.com/find.py?id=1215299 (too low)
Second try: http://invisiblecastle.com/find.py?id=1215301 (works, but that 6 is going to be tough to work with- I'll think of something...

May I present for your consideration, Vaeryn d'Phiarlan, elven scout.
Stat roll Which ends up at Str 10, Dex 19, Con 11, Int 15, Wis 12 and Cha 9 after racial modification, to which is added +1 Dex and +1 Cha at 4th level.
Vaeryn joined the Braelish military as soon as he was old enough, determined to use his skills to help end the war, rather than profitting off of it like most of his family. He was trained as a scout, taking advantage of his stealth and ability to learn important skills.
After the war ended, Vaeryn was not welcomed back into the Phiarlan fold. His elders saw his enlistment as turning his back on the family, so they returned the favor. With nowhere else to turn, Vaeryn rejoined a group of his military companions and started a career as an adventurer.
[sblock=spoiler]
Appearance: Vaeryn wears leathers so dark they could pass for black, and tends to keep his hood up at all times. Every movement is carefully placed and deliberate, and every word is weighed numerous times before being released. His dragonmark is on the inside of his right forearm.
[/sblock]
*Vaeryn proved his worth to the party by guiding them through the Q'Barran wilderness while racing the Jade Dragoons to the site of a recent airship crash. By arriving first, the party was able to rescue a Braelish nobleman who had been on board, gaining much acclaim and a bit of political capital in the process.
*The dragoons earned Vaeryn's eternal hatred by succesfully venturing into the Mournland to recover a family heirloom for a New Cyran merchant, a mission that our party had been unable to accomplish due to Vaeryn's inability to navigate the ruined geography of that cursed place.
*Vaeryn's personal nemesis with the Dragoons is, of course, a scion of House Thuranni. Ellynia d'Thuranni is bard of some renown, and is all-too skilled with her rapier for Vaeryn's taste. She has successfully charmed Vaeryn on a number of occassions as well.

I think my character is ready, although I think I'll have to have him bound to a vestige at the start. If binders are a no-go, I'll stat up something else.
My character was originally named by the person who is now his rival in the Jade Dragoons, so he probably doesn't use that name any more. I didn't name him; he would have been named by his companions, so I thought somebody else might want to propose a name. If not, I'll give him one.

[sblock=DESCRIPTION]
Unity is fairly typical in appearance for a warforged. His adamantine-laced
plating is the same he was built with, and he is about typical size. He
wears a belt around his waist to hold things and a dark green traveling
cloak, but no other clothing. His eyes glow a bright blue and always look
friendly. The symbol on his forehead is somewhat distinctive, a perfect
spiral that moves clockwise from a center point a good five times.
On any given day he may or may not bear the sign of a vestige. There are
some signs he suppresses when able and others that he usually doesn't mind
displaying.
[/sblock]
[sblock=PERSONALITY]
Unity has a stronger personality then most warforged. He demands his own say and likes getting his way, too. This has served him well in soul binding, enabling him to convince vestiges that the unique experience of riding in the unusual warforged body is well worth it, enlisting the aid of vestiges who wouldn't ordinarily listen to him at all.
Despite the taboos associated with contacting a vestige he always calls on their power as a means to an end, and that end is usually helping or protecting people.[/sblock]
[sblock=BACKGROUND]
Unity was sent to serve in the Brelish army after his creation. He was made with strong armor to be a warrior, but a binder in the unit called Melissandra wanted to experiment with teached the construct pact magic, and she was allowed the attempt. She was extremely successful, and she named him Apprentice.
However, as he learned more about the art, he noticed things about his teacher that unnerved him. He had been able to contact vestiges of all types by convincing them to experience life as a warforged instead of their usual requirements in hosts. Melissandra could not do this, but nonetheless could contact vestiges of all kinds. Clearly, Melissandra had been less ethical than Unity approved of, possibly solely for the purpose of making
stronger pacts.
He confronted her, and she became furious. He was not supposed to question her. The woman and the strong-willed warforged had become hostile towards each other, and he no longer needed her tutelage. Their commanders simply split them up into different units. Unity stopped using the name "Apprentice", and was renamed "Unity" by his new companions.
With the treaty of Thronehold signed, Unity no longer had any place to go. Several of his companions in his new unit lived near each other, and were heading home. He was invited to accompany them and did so, and later these friends left that home to become what they are today...[/sblock]
Unity's rival among the Jade Dragoons in none other than Melissandra. Apparently she also took to a life of adventuring after the Last War ended, and turned up in the rival party. She may have taught him his skills, but he is determined to show her that his was of using them is better.
When Melissandra joined the Jade Dragoons, they immediately started seeking out Dhaakani ruins. Unity did some research on the fly and discovered what she was looking for, and his group managed to beat them to the punch. He claimed the ancient vestige phylactery, a useful magic item for soul binders, for his own.
Unity suffers great embarrassment over one particular incident. He had made a poor pact with Naberius and the vestige was overtaken with a desire to make a speech to the passengers waiting for an airship, which he did not resist because he was not worried about the time and shook off his companions' requests for haste. The Jade Dragoons took advantage of his stop and bribed the pilot to take off without them; arriving in Zilargo three hours before the party easily enabled them to handle the hostage situation without interference.
Unity's vestige phylactery was stolen from him, and Melissandra possesses it at last. His magical shield, captured from a servant of the Lord of Blades almost a year ago, was also taken.
(If a vestige phylactery is too expensive for this, swap it for implements of binding.)
