Message: <blockquote data-quote="Estlor" data-source="post: 1483606" data-attributes="member: 7261">The setting I'm constructing right now has a period of war between the elves (the primary arcane magic users) and the humans (the primary divine magic users) after the human-controlled Unitarian Church declared alchemy (arcane magic) an act of heresy and mysticism (divine magic) the one true sorcerous power.  During the beginning of the Fifty Years War (the name of the civil war that brought an end to the elven empire on the mainland) the fighting is mainly arcane vs divine, and the elves construct the warforged to serve as shook troops in the conflict.  After they determine their mainland holdings are a lost cause, they retreat to their island stronghold, taking the Warforged production with them, abandoning most of their warforged soldiers in the process.  Of course, then the war continues, splintering off of the Unitarian Church's original ideal of placing itself (via the High Priest and his Shrine Knights) in power to a civil war amongst the twelve factions that make up the church.  So, yeah, I'm using the warforged (more or less) as written in Dragon in my next campaign.  However, since I'm using all non-core base classes (save for the rogue and divine bard UA varient), the warforged's favored class is now hexblade and not fighter.</blockquote>
