About[edit | edit source]
The Road to the Warforged[edit | edit source]
A small number of warforged created by the warforged Lord Snow first entered the realm in the latter half of the 7th century PR, these warforged were peculiarities, and artificers would often travel weeks to get the chance to meet one. By 709 PR, however, many of the original models had been dissected and reworked by artificers around the realm. Breakthroughs made by studying these early warforged precursors would help expedite a small mechanical revolution around the realm, including the perfection of Colin Pendergras' autom.
As the early warforged faced increasing degrees of mistreatment, commonly including complete disassembly, the widespread prejudice held against warforged became obvious, and Snow sought allies in the struggle for better treatment.
Fight for Recognition[edit | edit source]
The War[edit | edit source]
Results[edit | edit source]
With no significant strongholds remaining under control of the United Clans of Isonhound, and no government still in power that officially endorsed warforged subservience, the military conflict fell into history, and political and social efforts again took center stage, but now with People Are People and allied organizations having the ears of the lawmakers.
As a result of the war, races across the realm would slowly come to accept the warforged as their own sentient species, and not as constructed servants. Although large pockets of prejudice would continue to blight the realm for generations, by 745 PR, every city in the realm had instituted some policy dictating that warforged persons (and typically other sentient constructs as well) were entitled to the same treatment as members of organic species. Lasting social change had taken root.
