A bull harasses Terrin in Ultima IV
Only appearance:	Ultima IV

A bull is a male bovine which has not been castrated. More muscular and aggressive than females of its species, these animals may prove violent and territorial if approached incautiously. They appear only in Ultima IV.

Description

Baratarian fighting bulls were mentioned as having been instrumental to Mondain's endeavors to produce minotaurs in the early Age of Darkness, although the Stranger did not appear to encounter such creatures while traversing Sosaria at that time.

Later, after the christening of Britannia and the establishment of the virtues, bulls became a somewhat common sight in the towns and settlements of the era. During the quest toward Avatarhood, the wandering hero could find such animals in Skara Brae, Paws and Trinsic – in the latter town, the child Terrin could be found cowering from one such bull.

Notable Examples

• Ol' Red Eye: a violent bull in Paws who will attack those drawing near it.

Trivia

• The Inn of the Sleeping Bull, while having the name of the animal in its title, is not named after a real bull. Instead, its named after an enchanted statue of a bull that was created by a misanthropic mage.
