The Warforged Legions

When the first one of their kin, BonkaiBlue , was made , his creator fled , taking his creation with himself , the rest of his team went on to seek the patronage of kings and lords, seeking to establish a forge . The name of their creations took after their duty , for they were made to fight wars, as they needed not food , nor water, rest or reason . They were geared the moment they emerged from their spawning pools, molten bodies , in witch plates were hammered , everything that was given to them was made out of an alloy that would not melt in their first years of cooling of. The cores of the more promising were reinforced with the ones of the failures , those whose bodies were disfigured, had multiple limbs, or missing ones. The scientist who created them had no interest in giving them thinking or emotions, but under pressure from those who supported their endeavors, they caved, birthing the First Legion, and the next 21 after it, but do not mistake , their legions were led by strength and vigor , not the way the flesh-folk do it . 
The First was naught but a prototype , and it served its purpose well , it earned enough for their masters, and it was led by a beast of an warforged, twice the size of a man , wielding a great sword and being first to the slaughter . Their exploits were great , winning many battles , but there were legions greater than the first. The forging has long stopped, but it is a testament to this world's nature, war and death follow where there is prosperity and peace.
The Seventh Legion was know for their more nimble , smaller nature , as their forging was done with the intention of infiltrating and dealing with vermin , and all other creatures that swarmed and lurked where the deep and dark was . They were wiped by an earthquake that destroyed an underground city witch was recently conquered.
The Thirteenth Legion was born during great struggle between kingdoms , for their armies had beasts mighty and large , and no other legion was better equipped than them , they were forged larger and with thicker skin , their cores were reinforced so that their bodies could be salvaged after battle , this legion had the highest mortality rate , two thirds of the new recruits were expected to die in their first engagement . They were wiped not long ago by an unknown force. Most died , but it is said a few escaped .
The Twentyeth Legion was the greatest there was , as they were both the reason the forge stopped , and the reason the world stopped the torment of creation for the warforged . All of their kind who walk the earth remember them , as their sacrifice was the greatest . They threw themselves against the fortified city that spawned the WarForged , and slew the twenty-first legion that was protecting their creators , freeing from the ilk of greed all those who still lived . 
It is commonly believed that WarForged have free-thinking , but most of them are stuck to logical thinking , or just pure maniacal thoughts , waiting to massacre defenseless peoples , they rarely experience any emotion , and their bodies lack the sense of touch , the ability to feel heat of cold and the idea of morality. If they lack purpose they become vulnerable to going mad and killing everything that breaths and gets too close to them . They should die after 20-30 years of functionality , but most live on for unknown reasons, the cores should cool off completely by that time , so most people assume that WarForged drink or bathe in lava to continue living on, though no one has ever reported seeing one do that .
After the age of the legions , WarForged were seen as a threat , and were massacred everywhere they were seen for their unwanted nature , and to this day only a few are known to walk the earth .
