The Iron Bull is a fictional character in BioWare's Dragon Age franchise. The character appears in the 2014 video game Dragon Age: Inquisition, where he serves as a companion party member. He is a Qunari (literally meaning "People of the Qun" in the Qunari language), an umbrella term used in Thedas, the setting of the Dragon Age series, to describe a metallic-skinned race of large humanoids who live in the northern part of Thedas as well as their society, which governs the settlements where these beings reside and venerates a civil religion known as "The Qun". He is a spy commissioned by the "Ben'Hassrath", the secret police of the Qunari government, to operate in southern Thedas. As part of his cover, he leads a mercenary company known as the Bull's Chargers. Freddie Prinze, Jr. voices the character.

The Iron Bull's critical reception has been positive, with Prinze praised for his voice acting. He was named Giant Bomb's Best New Character of the Year in their 2014 Game of the Year Awards. Various merchandise has been made around the Iron Bull, including T-shirts, character dolls, and collectible statues.

"The Iron Bull" is not his real name, but a nickname he chose for himself; this is because the Qunari do not have a concept of personal identity, using their job titles instead of names. If the protagonist meets Gatt, a former elven slave and a convert to the Qun (known as a "Viddathari") whom Bull nicknamed and recruited in the past, he reveals that the Iron Bull is in fact known as Hissrad (meaning "one who creates illusion" or "liar") among his own people. The Iron Bull used to hunt spies, rebels, and deserters on behalf of his superiors prior to being transferred to Orlais to gather intelligence and collate reports on behalf of the Ben-Hassrath. While he still maintains his duties to the Qunari government, he has become accustomed to life outside of the teachings of the Qun, such as indulging in hedonistic pursuits or maintaining interpersonal relationships.

After the protagonist of Inquisition gained renown as the so-called Herald of Andraste, the Iron Bull eventually joins the organisation they lead, the Inquisition, to act as a double agent on instructions from the Qunari leadership. He openly admits this to the Herald during their initial meeting, having anticipated that the Inquisition would eventually discover his duplicity; this effectively makes him the Qunari's representative within the Inquisition if he is accepted into the organisation. The player may gain insight into Qunari culture, physiology, society, and politics by conversing with the Iron Bull, though he reveals little about himself in any specific individual sense.

Iron Bull has not been a contender in any CBUB matches.
