Warforged are basically an excuse to play a robot in a fantasy campaign without having to deal with level adjustment. They are similar to golems but differ in the fact that they are actually sentient creatures, created by magically coagulating metal and wood in a vat, and count as a special type of creature known as a "living construct", meaning they still have a constitution score and various other properties not possessed by other constructs, at the expense of sharing a lot of vulnerabilities with living creatures that plain old constructs don't.
This player race came about with the advent of the Eberron campaign setting for D&D and since then gained considerable popularity amongst the gaming community (which Dragonborn will never live to see). Surprisingly enough, Warforged are generally quite popular on /tg/. Warforged were originally used as mass produced soldiers in the big "not World War 1" of the Eberron setting.
