That being said, so far most of the Miraculouses seem to get paired with people who are on some level the complement of the characteristic represented by the animal the Miraculous is based on. Marinette is clumsy and chaotic to contrast the ladybug's good-luck symbolism. Adrien is careful and orderly to contrast the cat's bad-luck symbolism. Alya is hard-working and straightforward to contrast the fox's mischief symbolism. Gabriel is aloof and possessive to contrast the butterfly's generosity symbolism. I'm not going to be surprised if Master Fu destroyed the temple of the Guardians by making a rash choice in contrast to the turtle's steadiness symbolism.

If the Zodiac Miraculous holders end up being chosen like the Yinyang and Elemental Miraculouses (please note that while I am making these terms up, the Miraculouses page does have trivia points noting the fact that the two and the five are shown in a yinyang and wu xing layout), then I would expect the Monkey Miraculous holder to be someone with a low sense of humor and little likelihood of wanting to prank someone. I actually think either Ivan or Sabrina would be an excellent assignment. Ivan seems to generally not understand humor as quickly as most of the others, and Sabrina's lack of self-confidence around Chloe and her Vanisher persona make me feel like she's not much of a pranker.
