Is better for me that my character is the same as my zodiac sign, Libra because I don't think I could give my character a different sign that I'm not. |

Okay, so normally I would be with everyone else and say that my fursona's zodiac sign would fall in line with my own, but it doesn't. I purposefully fudged my character's birthdate and year so that I wouldn't have to worry too much about how old he really is, since on the bio page of the site he's listed as 26 but I've always written him as 27 (and I also keep aging faster than my fursona in real life).
Basically, his birthday is "sometime in the spring" in either 1868 or 1869. I'll go ahead and say he's an Aries, like myself, but as far as the Chinese Zodiac goes, it's more complicated. Doing the math, 1868 is the year of the Dragon, and 1869 the year of the Snake. (IRL, I was born in 1980, the year of the Monkey).
If everyone would like, I can try and set up a chart for people to figure out what year on the Chinese zodiac corresponds with your character's birth year (remember, take your charcter's age and subtract from 1895 for the birth year). _________________ Johnny's Fanfics (including Sureshot!

That would be a good idea to have a zodiac chart, so we can see what sign goes under our character, but you would have to find the year of 1800s. I've only seen the chart goes to 1900s. |

Thanks.
My character was born in 1874, so her Chinese zodiac is Dog.
And my Chinese zodiac is Snake.

I found these years with simple math, since the zodiac signs follow a 12 year cycle. Click the link below each sign's name for a description of the sign. Also remember that the Chinese Lunar calendar doesn't correspond with the Gregorian Calendar, so the Chinese New Year usually falls in late January to mid February, depending on the year. I've yet to find any information on the exact dates of the Chinese New Year before 1900, so if your character's birthdate falls anywhere in that January-February gap, use your best guess.
[EDIT: I'm having trouble getting the links to work, so you may have to copy-paste the urls into your address bars. Sorry]

Doing a little detective work, I may have found the Chinese Zodiac Signs for many of the main and supporting characters of the story.
Betty and William were both born in the Year of the Monkey
Violet and the Champagne Sisters were born in the Year of the Rooster
Daphne, Sibilla, and Red were born in the Year of the Snake
Simon was born in the Year of the Dog
Loucille was born in the Year of the Ox
George was born in the year of the Sheep
I had trouble figuring out Hans and Mary:
Mary, being an Aquarius (Jan 20-Feb 18 ), was born right in that gap between the end of the Year of the Dog and the beginning of the Year of the Pig.
Hans, on the other hand, being 27 years old, should have been born in 1868, meaning he was born in the Year of the Dragon. Unfortunately, in the bio on the site, it lists his birthyear as 1841, which would make him 54 years old and born in the Year of the Ox.
Also, obviously, I couldn't chart Edelweiss or Scarlet Blut's signs, since neither of them has an age or birthyear listed. _________________ Johnny's Fanfics (including Sureshot! A Bon Bon Tale)

Very interesting stuff, and very detailed information on that site.
If I'm going by "Dragon" as Johnny's birthyear instead of "Snake", the best two matchings seem to be "Monkey" (Betty?) and "Rat" (not sure who fits that one yet). If I'm going by "Snake" instead, Johnny's best matches would be "Rooster" (Violet, Dahlia, Ophelia) and "Ox" (Loucille??).
I did a bit of investigation, and according to some information I got from Vanessa a long time ago (on the first page in the "Sureshot" thread, actually), Daisy Nugget is supposed to be 25 years old in 1895, which should make her a "Horse". Apparently, "Snakes" don't get along very well with "Horses", but "Dragons" have some moderate ties with them. Seems Johnny and Daisy will either always be arguing, or they'll at least respect each other and work out their differences... _________________ Johnny's Fanfics (including Sureshot! A Bon Bon Tale)

Now that i think about it, i think i will go with the dog, but it would mean that i would have to set Evan's age lower to 21 and would clash with Johnny, but i think the clashes would take form of the two doing gun based one up man ship(aka trying to better each other with gun tricks.) |

Personally, I'm a libran rabbit. Tadelesh is a libran dog. That compatibility thing was interesting for me and Tadelesh:
Dog and RABBIT
Highly compatible and rewarding relationship. Deep trust and affinity for one another. Will find prosperity and happiness together.
Sounds quite fitting, I think. _________________ Wow, sarcasm! That's original. |
