If you’ve had moments in 2022 that made you feel like a character is just a little bit too much like you, then maybe you should blame the stars for it. Their worlds might not have the same skies as ours, but you’ll be surprised that some of them share your star sign.

Maybe you haven’t played around enough to think that any of the characters you’ve handled are relatable to you. There are 12 signs in the zodiac — and so many aspects to your star chart, so you might find a kindred soul or two among these 2022 protagonists.
12Aries: Viola (Bayonetta)
Viola’s spunky and headstrong personality as well as her fierce heart that makes her fit the bill of an Aries. Aries sun people are bold and decisive, and it’s these two characteristics that made Viola survive her ordeal in the events ofBayonetta 3.
She’s also impatient, and it’s gotten her into trouble more than once. Though a negative trait of Aries, it’s not like we can blame her for losing her temper when she’s lost those that are dear to her. Not to mention, you’re able to’t think of anything more fire-sign-related than the flaming katana she wields.
11Taurus: Amicia De Rune (A Plague Tale: Requiem)
The sign of Taurus is often associated with a comfortable and luxurious lifestyle, which are two things that will make you shake your head when you think of Amicia fromA Plague Tale: Requiem. She’s a warrior through and through, not out of choice, but by design and necessity.

Despite being the sign associated with an easygoing life and material wealth, Taurus natives are known to be stable, reliable, and even stubborn to a fault. As Hugo’s protector and older sister, she’s been his source of comfort, as well as his rigid supporter.
10Gemini: Atreus (God Of War: Ragnarok)
Is it because he’s also Loki, the trickster god? Gemini is known to be the trickster of the zodiac, and it’s true that Atreus is remarkably sneaky throughoutGod of War: Ragnarok. But it’s his quick wit, as well as his ability to communicate with whoever he meets, that make him a Gemini through and through.
Gemini’s not just chatty. They’re mercurial people with the gift of gab. Atreus unfortunately can get erratic like many Geminis, and this left poor old Kratos worried sick — but there’s no trouble that Geminis can’t talk or think their way out of.
9Cancer: Akito Izuki (Ghostwire: Tokyo)
Cancers are known to be particularly nurturing and caring toward those that they care about. That perfectly describes Akito, who went on a supernatural adventure to save his sick sister inGhostwire: Tokyo.

For a sign that is known to be emotional, Akito wasn’t able to express his strong feelings of grief and regret and allowed his negative feelings to fester inside of him. As the zodiac’s crab, it’s a fitting description since they tend to exhibit a tough exterior while hiding a soft underside.
8Leo: Ash Crimson (King Of Fighters 15)
Ash Crimson fromKing Of Fighters 15is probably Leo, and it’s hard to believe that he isn’t. Even Shen regrets that he’s forgotten a man as flamboyant as Ash, and that’s a common reaction most people have when they’re reminded of a Leo in their lives.
Let’s just say that Ash is back for good, and he finally has an Instagram account that he curates. As a fighter, he can get cheeky and witty against his enemies and tends to be sassy and sharp with his combat moves to the point that it hurts.
7Virgo: Batgirl (Gotham Knights)
Virgos are helpful and responsible, and these two characteristics are what pushed Barbara Gordon into hero work. She’s determined to improve — as most Virgos are — and without her sheer willpower, she wouldn’t have been able to overcome the hardships that barred her from being a great hero.Related:Gotham Knights: Batgirl Skill Tree Guide
Being analytical is a trademark for Virgos since they’re co-rulers of Mercury which is the planet of anything and everything intellectual. Our resident Batgirl happens to be highly skilled in coding and digging for information.
6Libra: Max Caulfield (Life Is Strange Remastered)
When you think of Libras, the mental image you have of them is that they’re extroverted social butterflies who have ineffable charm. Max fromLife is Strangeis canonically Libra, and it shows how she values artistry and creativity. Her love for obscure films and photography highlights this.
She can be conscious about how she treats others and is careful with her relationships with other people. When insecure, Libras tend to be sensitive and be overwhelmed easily by their emotions. This led Max to isolate herself and seek comfort in art, particularly music.
5Scorpio: Noah (Xenoblade Chronicles 3)
Loss and release are two themes in a Scorpio’s life, and Noah fromXenoblade Chronicles 3is no exception. Scorpios are often thrown into conflicts that they don’t choose, and their struggles often push them toward reinvention and healing.

4Sagittarius: Aloy (Horizon Forbidden West)
Aloy carries the sign of Sagittarius at heart with her adventurous streak and her quest for the truth. Sagittarians are often curious people who will go to great lengths and risks just to find answers. Aloy’s constant need to know more about herself and the world around her has been a standout trait inHorizon Forbidden West.
The sign of Sagittarius is known to have feet that don’t settle, and its natives are often traveling from one place to another to broaden their perspectives. They’re often optimistic like Aloy, even when she had to face the grim truth of her origins.
3Capricorn: Andreas Maler (Pentiment)
Andreas is an artist, and you might be making mental associations of him with the signs of either Libra or Pisces because of this. But the sign of Capricorn suits him well because he became an artist out of hard work and mastery. Besides, you wouldn’t have been able to solve the murder mysteries inPentimentwithout his practical deductions.

As an Earth Sign, Andreas drew inspiration for his works from the working class of Tassing. Being accomplished matters for most Capricorns, and he’s able to reach this feat by being a Master in the latter half of the story — but this isn’t without failure and sacrifice in other aspects of his life.
