A while ago I was pondering personality types for the major characters, identifying their Myers-Briggs types, Tarot Card correspondences, and astrological signs. I was on the fence about Honor (ISTJ but either Libra or Scorpio), but I've come to the conclusion he's a Scorpio. This graphics highlights some of the correspondences and traits, both positive and negative, associated with Scorpio, and which I feel strongly match Honor's personality.




Scorpians are the most intense, profound, powerful characters in the zodiac. Even when they appear self-controlled and calm there is a seething intensity of emotional energy under the placid exterior…In their everyday behavior they give the appearance of being withdrawn from the center of activity, yet those who know them will recognize the watchfulness that is part of their character. source

That site does mention that "Scorpians are passionate lovers, the most sensually energetic of all the signs" which implies sexual prowess but doesn't necessarily match with Honor's distate for shallow relationships. However it also says that "For them union with the beloved is a sacrament" and this is perfect; for Honor, sex is sacred, not to be taken lightly.
