Couple quick questions:
1) How are you handling hit points?
2) Warforged armor feats translate over to the equivelent armor as DR values? So mithral body translates to the values for a breastplate?
3) The pathetic flaw might be a little strong with your ability score generation, but I was considering taking it. If you think it might not be a good fit your game I'll hold back on that.
Edit: Nevermind, the +8 maximum ability score bonus to take the feat is probably very hard to pull off intentionally with this high of an array to set up.
4) Would it be possible to pay for the fortification to a warforged body? I'm actually NOT thinking of doing that, but I'm curious about what the answer on that is.

I think everything works out great for the concept I have in mind. I am thinking about taking a few levels of fighter along the way for the bonus feats and boost in hps. While he will never be a perfect tank, I think he will be able to hold his own.
As the characters are going to need to know each other, how do you feel about starting a backstory for the two of them Creamsteak?
I see Chaney as having started his career as a professional back alley brawler, but perhaps your Warforged might have shown him a better path to walk? Any suggestions?

Well, I'm not really completely developed yet. I have another class in an hour and a half, then I have to finish a computer program and pack my things to head home for a week.
One idea that comes to mind is that, as my character can function as a healer, we could have come together for an adventure after you were injured and I helped treat the wounds. That would at least provide an initial contact point, and we could develop it from there.

Or perhaps worked together in a prior task, and Chaney was impressed that you helped him without telling me "Its gonna cost ya...".
It could have been that act of kindness that convinced Chaney to keep away from the pit fights he was drafted from and stick to helping you where he could.
A Warforged Paladin who travels with a bare knuckle boxer...I am thinking this could be very interesting indeed...

Hit points will be 3/4 after 1st level so,
d12=9
d10=7
d8=6
d6=4
d4=3
As per the UA guidelines, Mithrial Body would provide +3 AC and DR 2. Adamantine Body would give +4 AC and DR 4.
Correct, no pathetic flaw.
Are you refering to the fortification special ability? If so, you can enchant yourself normally. If you are referring to the reinforced armor ability from the house rules, then yes, you can purchase it for your character, but only during character creation.
I was thinking about a NG human wizard, specializing in conjuration. The concept is still kind of rough in my mind, but here's what I've got so far:
His father was a (insert manual-labor kind of profession here, probably lumberjack). He was born with/contracted some form of disease/condition which causes his skin to crack and bleed easily. This made him tend to avoid outdoors, and so he spent much of his childhood hiding in wood piles, trying to avoid his father (who was disappointed in having such a weak son). He took up woodcarving as kind of a hobby to keep him busy while he did this.
Eventually his father gave up on him and sent him to the city, where he enrolled in mage school and learned magic. His condition had given him compassion for others' suffering, so he learned medicine as well, and became somewhat religious.
Appearance-wise, he's about average height, very pale from usually being indoors, brown hair, green eyes, but quite thin, and dressed very oddly: He wraps strips of blue cloth over most of his body, since normal clothes rub and chafe, which is bad with his skin (and that goes double for mage's robes).
Um, yeah, that's about as much as I've got so far. Does it look OK? I'll flesh it out tomorrow when I have some time.
I don't have the Eberron book, but I've been interested in the setting anyway so I may pick it up soon.
