Some background:
We're having a session in two weeks and for that session we're being joined by a friend visiting from out of the country. Hes going to be playing a Warfoged Barbarian who's soul was captured by a Red Wizard of Thay and forced into the Warforged body.
I've created some unique items to give to the regular PC's as part of this session and wanted to figure out a way to have the Warforge have possession of them to be able to give to them. My thought was that the Warforge was placed in stasis in a cave of treasure to guard the cave by the wizard. The wizard has long since been killed and now the Warforge has been freed from his stasis due to the Sundering.
My problem is it seems contrived to just have the three items in the cave and nothing else, but these guys are level 2, so I don't want to make them OP with a big treasure room. Does anyone have any ideas or advice for getting these items into their hands in such a way that it doesn't seem contrived or fake.
Nothing above is written in stone, at this point I can change anything to help fit the Warforge in, or change that character altogether if need be.
These items are specific for each of them, longbow for the Ranger, gauntlets for the cleric, armor of some kind for the paladin. I would post up images of the items, but I need a few posts before I'm allowed to post links.

I used two different posts from reddit to make the sheets:

I also used the two free programs suggested, Gimp and Notepad++. I have never used a photoshop program before, took some fiddling around but I managed. If you need any help feel free to message me.
