I had some reservations about Iron Bull right up until I saw his face in detail, actually; it's the only part of his design I really like. I agree that the DA2 qunari design was vastly superior (so much so that I modded it into Origins), and Iron Bull's look just makes me wonder how he even gets through doors (I'm not exaggerating, he's seven feet tall and like three feet wide not counting the horns, how the fuck does he fit through a standard doorway).

I suspect they made him so different from regular qunari because they didn't want Sten 2.0 - another stern and reticent soldier somehow separated from his people and tagging along with a ragtag group to save the world. Instead this guy is a spy on a backwoods assignment so that he can recover from some past trauma, still loyal to the Qun, but enmeshed enough in Thedan culture to be unique.

Frankly, though, they should have given us a female Qunari Ben-Hassrath with the same background. That would have been very different and very cool.

It's really unfortunate Tallis was born from Felicia Day (not that I mind her), since she couldn't play an actual Qunari.

Even if Felicia Day hadn't been involved, DA2 was so rushed that the devs didn't have time to create any female dwarf models for it, let alone build a never-before-seen female qunari model from the ground up, so we were never going to see a female racial-qunari before now. Another reason why I'm baffled as to why they didn't make Iron Bull female, since they had the time and resources.

Actually, my thinking was that since it was DLC, they might have devoted the time and effort.
