Bad combos: 

Fenrir + Kraken: The beast is loyal and cares for his mate, yet the kraken wishes to strangle and chain him down. The kraken constantly craves more and freedom, yet refuses to share her "dog". With the Fenrir sign and Kraken both being dominant symbols, the personalities clash and eventually the wolf will lash out, hurting the krakens delicate tentacles and tearing the relationship apart.

Scylla + The siren: Two signs that couldn’t be more deadly toward each other. Scylla lashes out at their Siren lover, whom is silently seeking attention elsewhere (perhaps even from Fenrir signs). The siren is prone to fleeing but won't back down if cornered by their Scylla partner. With the tremendous rage issues prone to Scyllan born signs, this combination often leads to death or severe injury.

The kraken + The serpent: When two tangled bodies meet the initial response is extreme passion, however the serpents venom is too potent for the more mellow kraken. The kraken only wanting to "share her love" with everyone, and the serpent having strong possessiveness. This type of relationship often ends with the kraken partner being physically abused by the more innocent/cunning serpent who tends to be manipulative and excellent at evading authority.

The hunter + Fenrir: The beast and the hunter are often at odds with one another. While Fenrir is a predominantly dominant sign, they tend to take a submissive role with dating the Hunter/huntress. The huntress gets enjoyment out of "taming the beast", however, a beasts appetite is not easily sated, and the Hunter may prove to be too bland leading the wolf to wander. This would be noticed by the Hunter and her arrows would be deadly to the wolf.

The hunter + Scylla: An interesting yet combative relationship, the multiheaded dragonic heads of scylla are tamed by the hunter, however the rage of scylla cannot be contained if she feels her hunter is betraying her, which she often suspects. There is a tendency for verbal fights, but with work, the relationship is possible. It is one of the least awful of the "bad" pairings.

The siren + the serpent: Whenever you have fire and water, you have trouble. In this relationship the cool, calculating Siren will play the serpents temper up, and the snake will sink its venomous fangs into the delicate siren who has a wealth of emotion under the mysterious/broody exterior. The possessive side of the serpent can also restrict the second most sexual of the signs, making the siren seek company at the hands (or tentacles) of another.

Good zodiac combinations:

With the bad comes the good, though exceedingly good couples are very rare, these signs tend to be naturally drawn toward one another.

The kraken and the siren: As water signs, the compatibility and personality traits of these two are near perfection. And unlike a fire or amanathine born sign, water signs truly "get" one another. Sirens and Krakens both are highly sexual and explorative, and will seek new experiences with each other, and even be open to inviting "friends" into the bedroom. Both agree on similar matters, and make excellent friends though the sexual attraction between them is so easily visible they tend to disgust several other members of the zodiac.

The hunter and the serpent: Fire and Amanathine go together like a symphony and conductor. The hunter reigns in the serpent and brings the serpent up to her level, raising them to the height of her. This is noticed by the serpent who is used to being stepped on and normally quite volatile. Because the hunter is so supportive of the toxic snake, the snake responds in kind, wrapping the hunter in layers of affection and attachment. And while the serpent isn't known for being overly emotional as a whole, as a fire elemental, there is a deep burning passion within its small scaled body. The hunter being a proud and strong sign sees the good in the serpent, shows the reptile it can be better, and aids it in doing so. And for this, the hunter too grows and benefits. As friends they are extremely compatible and supporting, and as lovers you wont find a stronger pair for either sign.

Fenrir and Scylla: as unlikely and unimaginable as you may think, the Amanathine wolf and fiery dragonoid make a strong team. Better as friends, but fiercely protective of one another as lovers, the wolf understands he does not need to "defend" his dragon. She is strong, with a will more impervious to the world than the dog, and if she sees her faithful canine becoming stressed or broken down by life, she retaliates, often annihilating anyone and anything that comes between her wolfs happiness and her own. The wolf finds this an attractive trait, and as Scyllans are usually beautiful in nature, he's attracted to both her strength and her looks. Wanting to stand beside and bask in her warm glow. Scyllans draw others to them, and the wolf keeps them away warily. This can cause problems in their relationship, but if they work on it together, they are virtually unstoppable.

Pairings in general: 

Kraken + hunter: the calm, noble hunter is choked and swallowed by the insatiable lust of the kraken. The poor hunter simply cannot keep up, and her heart will be broken when the coiled tentacles reach for more "interesting" prey.

Kraken + Kraken: when two sea monsters meet it's a freak-show, they probably will never leave the bedroom, but outside of sex they really don't work well together, often bored of one another when it comes to conversation or work.

Kraken + fenrir: combative and often dangerous combination. Bad.

Kraken + siren: as said above, one of the best pairings in the zodiac.

Kraken + serpent: volatile and sexual but possession makes for difficulty. Bad

Kraken + scylla: when tentacles meet the multi-headed dragon it's a struggle for dominance. with so many similarities, they should be the best of friends. When it comes to the bedroom however, both have a tendency to stray as both wish to spread their seed and are inclined to do so. If they can agree on boundaries, it can work, but trust is hard for both of these signs.

Hunter + kraken: the calm, noble hunter is choked and swallowed by the insatiable lust of the kraken. The poor hunter simply cannot keep up, and her heart will be broken when the coiled tentacles reach for more "interesting" prey.

Hunter + hunter: when you put two books side by side what happens? You have two books. The hunters relate to each other as friends in a comfortable and platonic manner, but make for horrible companions or romantic interests. They're simply too dull.

Hunter + scylla: A horrifically bad pairing. Scylla is nervous and scared the hunter will cheat (though she is not prone to this) and even with reassurance, there is a constant air of disbelief and discomfort. Even as friends, they are wary--acquaintances at best, despite scylla's best efforts to make otherwise.

Hunter + fenrir: two at odds, the hunter wishes to tame the beast, but the beast has a great hunger for more and the calm hunter may prove to be simply not up to snuff.

Hunter + siren: rare is it that a hunter can tame a siren, but when it happens, it's usually the siren submitting and letting that calm water flow. An average match, both are rather fluid and can mold to the other. They are very accepting of the others flaws.

Hunter + serpent: one of the outright best matches in the zodiac, and a powerful couple. You'll see them in the fighting ring back to back, winning contests and trophies, taking home all the coin in a casino. These two never lose.

-----

Scylla + scylla: the many maws of the dragon are tough to combat, and for each other the distinction is irrelevant. They each see the other as opportunity, friend, foe, temptation or more. This match can go either way.

Scylla + kraken: when tentacles meet the multi-headed dragon it's a struggle for dominance. with so many similarities, they should be the best of friends. When it comes to the bedroom however, both have a tendency to stray as both wish to spread their seed and are inclined to do so.

Even as friends, they are wary--acquaintances at best, despite scylla's best efforts to make otherwise.

Scylla + fenrir: an unlikely yet powerful team. The best friends who make it easy to fall into being lovers. They have a deep attraction toward one another and one might say they're mystified by the other.

Scylla + siren: scylla is unyielding in her quest for dominance, and siren is all onboard to give it. Though the relationship is tumultuous at best, these two will make for an average pairing, though they make poor friends.

Scylla + serpent: The snake and the beast of many maws is an interesting arrangement. Often the scyllan will take a more defensive and protective role involving their snake, despite the venom the snake packs, it is more submissive, and therefore easily stepped on. Scylla is a sign made of hellfire and fury, and has no trouble being the protector in this couple. You will often immediately recognize a scylla and serpent, as the scylla will be the "older sibling" or "parent" role between the two of them, always keeping a keen eye on their friend or partner. 

----

Fenrir + fenrir: when two wolves combine they have the strength to challenge any who come across them. Large lusts and large appetites, one will dominate the other but they will settle into a circle of co-dominance that is fitting of two massive beasts.

Fenrir + kraken: combative and often dangerous combination. Bad.

Fenrir + hunter: two at odds, the hunter wishes to tame the beast, but the beast has a great hunger for more and the calm hunter may prove to be simply not up to snuff.

Fenrir + scylla: an unlikely yet powerful team. The best friends who make it easy to fall into being lovers. They have a deep attraction toward one another and one might say they're mystified by the other.

Fenrir + siren: the siren sings a sweet song of innocence and delicate beauty and the wolf follows the sweet song, becoming hopelessly enraptured with the siren. If not careful, this relationship can be emotionally abusive to the wolf, who will guard his "sweet" siren with everything he has, giving all of his soul. If the siren doesn’t meet this level of commitment, severe problems can arise.

Fenrir + serpent: respectful. The wolf carries the snake and the snake attacks those who seek to harm the trusting and gullible wolf. An excellent friendship and a good relationship choice. They form a solid, lifelong bond. Even if the romance fades, the friendship bond will las a lifetime.

-----

Siren + siren: two delicate beings don't mesh well. Both water and more submissive signs, they are the type to whine about their partner not being what they want, despite being that themselves.

Siren + kraken: as said above, one of the best pairings in the zodiac.

Siren + hunter: rare is it that a hunter can tame a siren, but when it happens, it's usually the siren submitting and letting that calm water flow. An average match, both are rather fluid and can mold to the other. They are very accepting of the others flaws.

If the siren doesn’t meet this level of commitment, severe problems can arise.

Siren + serpent: between defensiveness in the serpent and sneakiness of the siren, this pairing is bad. Its very unlikely they can ever reach an agreement, and therefore will always be at odds.
