How the match works

Your birth date. Add the time and city if you know them: the result gets more precise, but the date alone is enough.
Your natal chart. NEBO works out where the Sun, the Moon and the planets were when you were born, plus your Ascendant if the time is known.
Your profile. The chart gives your balance of elements (fire, earth, air, water), your modalities (cardinal, fixed, mutable) and your Sun, Moon and Ascendant signs.
Your match. Every character has a profile too. You see your similarity with each of them in % and who is closest to you. It takes a minute and it’s free.

Characters in the quiz (26)

Samwise GamgeeThe real hero of the story: no power, but never gives up. Carries the one who can't walk any more.Sam is the Bagginses’ gardener, whom Gandalf catches eavesdropping under the window and sends off with Frodo.
MeriadocCheerful and quick-witted: turns a hopeless situation into a plan, then does what nobody expected of him.Meriadoc Brandybuck, just Merry to his friends, is the most level-headed of the young hobbits: he’s the one who organizes the “conspiracy” so Frodo won’t go alone, and he studies the maps in advance.
Peregrin TookPokes his nose where it doesn't belong, wrecks plans — and that's exactly how he saves everything at the crucial moment.Peregrin Took is the youngest of the Fellowship, always hungry and curious about everything.
Bilbo BagginsWent off on an adventure, came back changed and couldn't just carry on. Knows the price of what he held in his hands.Bilbo is a respectable hobbit whom Gandalf and thirteen dwarves drag out of his cozy hole on a quest to the Lonely Mountain.
GandalfDoesn't rule but kindles: sees the whole picture and makes everyone take their own step.Gandalf is one of the Istari, a Maia sent to Middle-earth to inspire the free peoples to resist Sauron, not to fight in their place.
AragornLong refused to be who he was, and when he accepted it, everyone followed him. His strength is that he didn't want power.Aragorn, son of Arathorn, is Isildur’s heir, known in Bree only as the grim Ranger Strider.
LegolasPrecision, lightness and distance: strikes from afar and wastes no movement.Legolas is the son of Thranduil, king of the Elves of Mirkwood, who brings news of Gollum’s escape to Rivendell and becomes the Fellowship’s elf.
GimliLoud, stubborn and loyal to the end. Under the gruffness is the warmest heart in the Fellowship.Gimli, son of Glóin, is a dwarf from the Lonely Mountain who joins the Fellowship on behalf of his people.
BoromirWanted to save his people and gave in — then gave his life to set it right. The most human of them all.
FaramirResisted the temptation his brother couldn't, and spent his life proving to his father what never needed proving.Faramir is Denethor’s younger son, captain of the Rangers of Ithilien, whom his father constantly compares to his beloved Boromir and never ranks alongside him.
ThéodenWoke late but made it in time: rode into a battle he shouldn't have won and reclaimed his name.Théoden is the King of Rohan, who for years fades away under the whispers of his counselor Gríma while Saruman undermines his kingdom.
ÉomerStraight strength and loyalty: while everyone hesitates he's already in the saddle.Éomer is the Third Marshal of the Riddermark and Théoden’s sister-son, who openly despises Gríma, and Gríma gets him arrested for it.
ÉowynRefuses the limits placed on her and does what “no living man” can do.Éowyn is Théoden’s sister-daughter, who for years tends the fading king and fends off Gríma’s advances, feeling locked in a cage.

ArwenChose a mortal life for one decision. Quiet, but the firmest of all.Arwen Undómiel, the Evenstar of her people, is Elrond’s daughter and Galadriel’s granddaughter, whose beauty is compared to that of Lúthien.
ElrondThe memory of how it all went last time: cautious, because he's seen how it ends.Elrond Half-elven is the Lord of Rivendell, son of Eärendil, who long ago chose the fate of the Elves, while his brother Elros became the first King of Númenor.
GoldberryBright, light and outside the whole war: beside her, others forget their fear.Goldberry, the River-daughter, is the wife of Tom Bombadil, living with him in a house on the edge of the Old Forest.
Lobelia Sackville-BagginsSpiteful, clinging and unexpectedly brave: she's the one who went at a ruffian with her umbrella.Lobelia Sackville-Baggins is Bilbo’s quarrelsome relative, who hunts for Bag End for decades and even pinches his silver spoons.
SarumanA mind that decided it could outplay everyone, and lost precisely because of that.Saruman the White is head of the White Council and the most learned of the Istari, who studies the arts of the Enemy for years until he himself falls under its power.
DenethorCarried everything himself until he broke: looked into the palantír and saw only defeat.Denethor is the last Ruling Steward of Gondor, proud and perceptive, who has held the line against Mordor for decades.
GollumTwo halves bargaining with each other. The most tragic character: both his own victim and his own executioner.Gollum was once Sméagol of a river-folk akin to hobbits, who murdered his friend Déagol for the Ring he’d found.
TreebeardIn no hurry at all until someone touches his forest. Then he decides everything in a single day.Treebeard is the oldest of the Ents, Shepherd of the Trees of Fangorn and one of the most ancient living beings in Middle-earth.
Thorin OakenshieldPride, gold and lineage: nearly lost himself before he remembered what he'd set out for.Thorin Oakenshield is the heir of the Kings under the Mountain, who got his name when he used an oak branch instead of a shield in battle.
Bard the BowmanA quiet man with a black arrow: does what's needed when everyone else runs.Bard is an archer of Lake-town, a descendant of the lords of Dale, a grim man his neighbors take for a grumbler and a pessimist.
GrímaWords that poison more slowly than a knife. Dangerous precisely because he stands close.Gríma, son of Gálmód, is King Théoden’s counselor and Saruman’s secret agent.
