The DM included some warforged and in my inane roleplaying I befriended them. Now I act as though my halfling is one of them. Today I spent my time pouring through items and armors and and things that I might strive for... to learn the future of my character by learning what exists in the world of D&D... i'm very new, but very intrigued.   While searching I came across this familiar known as the "Warforged Faceplate."   I am a Halfling Rogue (Thief), how is it one might typically go about obtaining a familiar? Do I need prerequisite abilities? I mostly want it for character flavor, but I'm not sure if there is any way I can obtain it as all the posts I read had specific classes that benefit from familiars, but Rogue was not among them.

That said you've answered my question regardless of me asking it in the wrong place and I thank you... it seems I'll have to multiclass at my earliest convenience if Tontorrin is to gain a warforged face.

They refer to me as a "defective flesh model." I was hoping my desires to be more warforged-like would enable me to convince the DM to steer me in a way to turn that branded stone into a faceplate with the name Broken branded upon it's forehead.   Just a bit of insite into where my halfling is roleplaying-wise. Thank you for your second perspective into how I might obtain this faceplate.
