Personally I’m not hugely enthralled by the robot=lawful association for warforged, while I know I don’t really know any of the lore I prefer to think of them more as just, golems with souls,Hmmm. What if the Warforged somehow represents the Lawful Neutral species, relating to Mechanus and its Modron?
There seems a need for LN counterpart to the Tiefling (and Aasimar).
In Eberron and in World Axis, the Warforged have a specific history, respectively. But in 5e core, the Warforged might have a planar origin.
(Is Autognome the only other playable Construct species?)
Tangentially were you aware there was a thread discussing potential lawful and chaotic planestouched species not too long ago (genuinely asking, I don’t remember who was and wasn’t in the conversation)
Edit: i think a more neutral take on hobgoblins might be an interesting choice for that position though, they’re already slightly fey which has touches of magically binding unwritten rules and hospitalities which seems to fit right into a law-touched species
