I can confirm that Iron Bull is a qunari. He will also be male and probably still has horns.
Let me know if y'all need more hot tips.
Where would we be without you, Jeff????

Does he still have that sexy back? ![]()
Does he still have that sexy back?
Does he still have these sexy scars?
I'm not going to lie, I would be kind of happy if he wasn't a love interest. It's just that there are probably only going to be two guys. I don't find the Qunari attractive at all, they're sort of the opposite of what I think is attractive. That would mean I'd have to hope I liked the other guy. However, I acknowledge this is completely selfish reasoning and other people hold the opposite opinion, so I couldn't hold it against the game makers if he was.
I think it'll be interesting if he's a Tal-Vashoth. So far, we've gotten a decent amount of perspective from those in the Qun. We haven't gotten much at all from people that choose to leave it. I think his narrative would be very interesting in that case.

How dare you deny the Qun!

I did a thing
@PatrickWeekes So which food might represent Iron Bull?
@lpmc94 Sorry, might constitute a spoiler. I prefer not to answer for anyone I wrote, and will not spoil a char someone else wrote.

Darn. I'd laugh if it was the Skittles and Tequila
Going by his Survey description (If thats still accurate) I could see it. But I'd still laugh.
Going back to the kitten discussion, I think a nice way of playing with that would have him have a pet tiger or some such, but still treat it like the kitten/cub he raised it from.
Am I the only one who thinks he kind of looks like a satyr?

So wait, Jeff, all this time people haven't been talking about one of these?

OK, I admit the technology to put one of these in a Thedan tavern doesn't exist yet, but I was hoping.
Did anyone ever find out what food he is?

So no update since then? Okay.
Let's speculate. I'm betting he's Hanged Man ale.
am i the only one hoping they'll cast richard moll?
Humorously enough, I bought the weird attraction between Sten and Shale more than the flirting between him and Morrigan. I wouldn't ship any of them together, but I can see why Sten and Shale would get along so well.
100 gold pieces says that Qunari can interbreed with humans just fine and that you may be right. My guess anyways. They probably wouldn't choose to, since the whole act of conception has to be approved first. Those Qunari sure have rigid quality control.
i think they can, hence why their are hornless ones like Sten
I believe the official stance at the office on literal iron bulls right now is, "not in Inquisition, but certainly worth pursuing in future games."So wait, Jeff, all this time people haven't been talking about one of these?

I'm given to understand that the hornless ones are just anomolies.
The fact that they're considered "special" makes me think they're more random and less predictable than simply being the result of crossbreeding.
I did hear a (baseless) theory a while back that qunari/human crossbreeding works like human/elven crossbreeding; there are no halfbreeds; the offspring are always qunari. Like I said, baseless speculation, but I do like the theory.

In qunari mythology, hornless qunari are marked as special, with a destiny. Supposedly, the tal-vashoth remove their horns, as a slight to that way of thinking, and the saarabas have their horns cut as a visual sign of their danger.

I don't think we were supposed to 'buy' the flirting with him and morrigan. Morrigan was trying to make him uncomfortable, and he flipped it on her to troll her. Not so much flirting as....back and forth dickery?
But yeah Shale was totally down with the quanari and, how did she describe it, "his glistening muscles"

that is using religion, i was using a possible explanation genetically for the mutation. and given their religion i doubt they'd want to admit it is because some one did something when they are not supposed to

I don't think they really hide it. We've been told that when people have kids they aren't supposed to (which means any time a pregnancy happens without the explicit orders that those two people should reproduce) the kids get raised normally by the priests and the parents are sent to be re-educated for defying the qun. I doubt they'd try to hide it or say that things happened that didn't. They'd just admit some people defied the qun and then were rightly sent to be fixed.
I don't think the genetic mutation really needs an explination beyond "this is an occasional mutation in the species" like albinism in humans
It's not uncommon for a pre-modern medicine/genetics society to presume that certain mutations or deformities mean something, from something the parents to a mark of destiny in some way.
