Critically acclaimed RPG Mass Effect 2 is one of the best of its kind. Developer BioWare is well-known for its hit RPGs, however, a non-linear story and an extraordinary amount of detail makes Mass Effect 2 stand out. The character development is awe-inspiring. In Mass Effect 2, decisions matter.
Based on the personality traits and actions of the following characters, we can deduce which horoscope sign belongs to each. Are you enshrouded in mystery like the Illusive Man or as distrusting and violent as Zaeed, the bounty hunter? Which Mass Effect 2 character are you based on your zodiac sign?
12 Aries (Mar 21 - Apr 20): Commander Shepard
As the protagonist of Mass Effect 2, the character you play changes based on your decisions. However, he or she is always a spacefarer from planet Earth. “You kill people because you think they’re beneath you, that they’re in your way. I kill people when they leave me no choice.”
Aries is the first and foremost zodiac sign, which is fitting for Commander Shepard. Shepard’s leadership and courage are reminiscent of an Aries. If you were born between March 21st and April 20th, you are Commander Shepard!
11 Taurus (Apr 21 – May 21): Jeff “Joker” Moreau
“I’m not good. I’m not even great. I’m the best damn helmsman in the Alliance fleet.” Flight Lieutenant Jeff “Joker” Moreau is the lead pilot of the SSV Normandy. As someone consistent, he could be considered as reliable as a Taurus. With that said, Joker is stubborn since he doesn’t always follow orders. When the Normandy was being attacked by an unknown enemy, Joker wanted to go down with the ship until he was hauled to an escape pod.
10 Gemini (May 22 – Jun 21): Dr. Karin Chakwas
The Gemini horoscope sign reflects individuals who have a quick ability to learn. Dr. Karin Chakwas is the doctor of the SSV Normandy and is someone who enlisted in the Alliance immediately after medical school. She’s gentle but not as good of a decision-maker as Commander Shepard. This is evidenced by the fact she is more loyal to Commander Shepard than Cerberus.
“I sincerely hope you’re kidding, Corporal. The sort of ‘real action’ you seem to be lusting after usually ends with me patching up crew members in the infirmary.” If you were born between May 22nd and June 21st, you are Dr. Karin Chakwas!
9 Cancer (Jun 22 – Jul 22): Illusive Man
The Illusive Man is, by nature, a mysterious individual. He has the best and worst traits of a human being. “Salvation comes with a cost. Judge us not by our methods, but by what we seek to accomplish.”
The Illusive Man fits the Cancer zodiac sign because he is challenging to get to know. Also, he is sympathetic to his fellow man, believing that humanity should ascend other races. As someone who deeply cares for his kin, he gives us the impression he’s not thrilled about meeting strangers.
8 Leo (Jul 23 – Aug 23): Mordin Solus
“Not always been a doctor. Spent time in Salarian Special Tasks Group; can handle myself. Advantages of being Salarian. Turians, Krogan, Vorcha all obvious threats. [inhale] Never see me coming.”
This Salarian geneticist can achieve anything he sets his mind to. He is best described as consequentialistic, meaning that he believes in morals. Leos can be inflexible, just like how Mordin Solus listens to logic rather than emotions. This affable character is as warm-hearted as a Leo.
7 Virgo (Aug 24 – Sept 22): Thane Krios
“Kolyat, I’ve taken many bad things out of the world. You’re the only good thing I ever added to it.” Thane Krios is a male Drell assassin, who might be the most skilled in the Milky Way galaxy.
For Thane Krios, it is all work and no play. He might even be shy, given his lone wolf nature. If you were born between August 24th and September 22nd, you are assassin Thane Krios!
6 Libra (Sept 23 – Oct 23): Tali’Zorah nar Rayya
“The Pilgrimage proves we are willing to give of ourselves for the greater good. What does it say about me if I turn my back on this?” For someone who is a mechanical genius, she is wise beyond her years. Libra individuals have a sharp intellect and are fascinated by stimulating conversations. As someone who is tasked with important missions, Tali’Zorah nar Rayya is a Libra!
5 Scorpio (Oct 24 – Nov 22): Zaeed Massani
“Doesn’t matter who you are - you got a gun in your face, chances are good you’ll do what the other man says. Only two types don’t buckle at that point: trained killers and psychopaths. Lots of people can’t tell the difference.”
As someone with a violent nature, whether he sees it as a weakness or not, Zaeed Massani is a bounty hunter. Scorpios can be distrusting and violent. Their positives include resourcefulness, braveness, and being a true friend. You are Zaeed Massani, the quintessential Scorpio!
4 Sagittarius (Nov 23 – Dec 21): Garrus Vakarian
“Fighting a rogue Spectre with countless lives at stake and no regulations to get in the way? I’d say that beats C-Sec.” Garrus is a profoundly unique individual who received military training at the young age of fifteen.
Garrus is well-suited for the Sagittarius zodiac sign because of his extensive traveling background with the Alliance. He will say what’s on his mind no matter how controversial it might be. Defeating Saren in Mass Effect is his number one priority. If you were born between November 23rd and December 21st, you are Garrus Vakarian!
3 Capricorn (Dec 22 – Jan 20): Miranda Lawson
“I’m an excellent judge of character. I think you’ll find my assessments to be right on the money.” Although developing a relationship with a Capricorn is difficult, they stay close to the friends they make. Miranda Lawson could be a love interest of Commander Shepard if you chose a male.
Miranda is considered a Capricorn because she is responsible, disciplined, and exercises excellent self-control. If you were born between December 22nd and January 20th, you are Miranda Lawson!
2 Aquarius (Jan 21 – Feb 18): Liara T’Soni
“That is why I find you so fascinating. You were marked by the beacon on Eden Prime; you were touched by working Prothean technology!” As someone who spent years working on Prothean technology, she is fascinated with Commander Shepard. She might even become an interspecies love interest if you play your cards right. Liara T’Soni is a deep thinker like an Aquarius. You are Liara T’Soni!
1 Pisces (Feb 19 - Mar 20): Morinth
“But I want you to know something: my lovers spent their last moments experiencing a pleasure you can’t imagine.” Making her first appearance in Mass Effect 2, Morinth has escaped prison using her wits. She is smart like a Pisces, even if she can be a know-it-all. Pisces do not like the past coming back to haunt them, which makes Morinth the quintessential Pisces sign. You are Morinth, an Asari!
