Xaden Riorson: zodiac sign and birth chart
Xaden has no canon birthday. The books never give one. Read from his personality, he's a Scorpio: the wingleader of Fourth Wing who keeps his reasons to himself, shields the traitors' children at Basgiath and stays dangerous in a way nobody can quite explain. Scorpio Rising and Mercury close the vault, Libra Venus and Mars add the poise.

NEBO's take
No birthday in canon. His personality says Scorpio.
We ran Xaden through the same model that matches people to characters in the app, and looked at which chart gets him most often. It reads him as water first: a secretive protector with a vault for a face, and Libra Venus and Mars for the poise.

Scorpio guards what it loves in silence. He shields the other traitors' children forced into a Basgiath that is hostile to them.
- Moon
CanonNot in canonNEBO's takeAries
Aries Moon acts before it explains. In Violet's first week at Basgiath he assigns Liam to guard her.
- Rising
CanonNo birth timeNEBO's takeScorpio
No birth time in canon. First impression, Scorpio style: still, dark and unreadable, the wingleader everybody moves away from.
- Mercury
CanonNot in canonNEBO's takeScorpio
Scorpio Mercury keeps secrets. Even with the people he loves, he holds things back, and the books show what that costs.
- Venus
CanonNot in canonNEBO's takeLibra
Libra Venus chases balance. His dragon Sgaeyl is Tairn's mate, so his fate and Violet's are tied together before they ever have a real conversation.
- Mars
CanonNot in canonNEBO's takeLibra
Libra Mars fights with control. He gathers shadows into a weapon that stops an enemy before the first blow lands.
What canon does give: the son of the rebellion's leader, a wingleader with a relic on his skin and a reputation that walks into every room before he does. Scorpio is the answer: power in reserve, loyalty without speeches.
