In a work with an Interspecies Romance, the happy couple is very likely to pass on different alleles to the resulting child. This is normally where the laws of genetics are thrown out the window in favor of Hollywood Genetics. And in Hollywood, the three things that can happen are as follows: Either/Or Offspring: The child will be either parent's species with no hybridization. The One Hero, Hold the Weaksauce route: The hybrid inherits both species' strengths and none of the weaknesses. All Genes Are Co-Dominant: The hybrid gets a half deal on all traits in a kinda-sorta-but-not-really incomplete dominance way. They have half of everything—from physical appearance to strengths and weaknesses. This is probably an attempt at a more realistic aversion of the route above; but if one of the races has a severe imbalance of power compared with the other, it can have a similar effect overall. This approach may fail in the realism department — it is somewhat improbable that none of the obvious physical traits will have a Mendelian inheritance pattern. This approach can also be an attempt at simplifying, as working out exactly which fantastic traits are dominant in your world, which traits are recessive, and which are codominant while still keeping the character's Competitive Balance in mind could distract you from figuring out more important plot points and leave viewers who don't understand genetics scratching their heads. This can also be seen as a throwback to the pre-Mendelian view of inheritance where there was no idea of individual genes inherited from each parent but rather the notion that inherited traits will all simply blend, producing an offspring that's the average of its parents. Patchwork Kids is a Sub-Trope. Contrast Random Species Offspring when the offspring is biologically not like the parents at all. Very prominent in fanworks. |

In RainbowDoubleDash's Lunaverse, a foal will very occasionally be born who is a perfect balance of two of the tribes, and thus possesses attributes of both. An example would be Alula, who is a pegacorn (half Pegasus, half unicorn, has both horn and wings. Frequently mistaken for an alicorn). | |

Angel: Doyle didn't even know about his father's demonic lineage until he turned twenty — presumably because of the spikes ejecting from his face. He prefers to pass as human, something pure-blood Bracken demons can't do. The Groosalugg is basically a pink-skinned variant of Lorne's species, with navy blue eyes. |

Even less realistic is Jon Kent, the son of the Pre-New 52 Superman who was introduced during the events of DC Rebirth. Jon seems to have his powers like flight and heat vision almost to the same level as his dad. The rub comes in that Jon's powers are unpredictable and sporadic. At first he'll be invulnerable but then a tumble from a tree will give him a concussion. It seems that as he grows his genes are fighting and shifting in order to find a more stabilized state. They do finally stabilize after the Black Dawn arc, giving him an overall power level that is comparable to, but still weaker (due to his age) than, Superman himself, but his overall potential is a case of Hybrid Power, with Batman claiming that Jon's full powers will surpass his father's and potentially grant him abilities that his father may never manifest. His unique genome does leave him deficient in other areas, particularly his control over his Solar Flares, which can potentially kill him. | |

In the Kiesha'ra Series by Amelia Atwater Rhodes, the shapeshifters were all once humans who were either granted second forms by elementals, or created with the help of other species. Eventually, the monarchs of the Avians and Serpiente work together to bridge their 2000 year old war and the heirs to the thrones intermarry. It was not believed that they would be able to have children at first, but there apparently was enough human in their genes to make it work, and the child is a wyvern who has a pure Hawk form, a pure Cobra form, and a form that has traits of both. This codominance of genes only works for these two breeds, since among the birds the Hawk gene is dominant, and among the snakes the Cobra gene is dominant. The combination of the power of the two species makes it so that it would be dangerous for any wyvern (or anyone with mixed ancestry) to have children themselves, but they are not actually sterile. |

Dragon Ball: At least for Son Gohan, the offspring of a human and a Saiyan was a hybrid who had human psychology (the lack of a drive for battle and general empathy for others primarily) but Saiyan physiology, including the prehensile monkey tail, spiky hair, and superhuman ki control. As the series introduced more hybrids, they became almost totally indistinguishable from humans due to the series creator forgetting tails existed for Saiyan characters due to his Writing by the Seat of Your Pants style. The same can be said for Future Trunks. He has the same powers and biology of a Saiyan, but all he focuses on is saving the day and world peace rather than looking for a good fight. |

In Harry Potter, this appears to be J. K. Rowling's approach with the half-giant Hagrid. Normal giants are 20-25 feet tall, with extremely large bodies, and are not as intelligent as wizards. Hagrid is "Twice as tall as a normal man, and five times as wide," and somewhat bumbling. On the other hand, the other half-giant in the series, Madame Olympe Maxime, is just as large as Hagrid but more intelligent and graceful, and good enough at magic to run a school. | |

Inuyasha: Inuyasha is the son of a human princess and a Dog Demon Lord, and besides claws and strength he also inherited dog ears and white hair, but he is significantly weaker than his whole demon half-brother and does not possess the ability to transform into a giant dog. Then there are the times he turns completely human (during the new moon) which just makes things complicated... There are also times where he turns full demon. He doesn't turn into a dog, but his facial markings change, and he goes berserk. There are other half-demons in the series who inherit the demonic features/traits of their demon parent, but how bestial they look varies. Jinenji's demonic heritage is unspecified, but he is over ten feet tall and has a bestial face, while Shiori the half-bat-demon looks almost completely human (aside from her lavender hair, purple eyes, and dark skin for a Japanese child who spends most of her daylight hours indoors), and almost nothing like her demonic grandfather whose powers and duties she inherited, however she does more closely resemble her demonic father who also looks human apart from his hair and eye colors. This is complicated somewhat by the fact that some full demons have a human form and an animal form that they can magically switch between, and it's unclear if the vastly dissimilar phenotypes are influenced by inheritable differences. It's explained that how a hybrid appears is really luck of the draw. Jinenji's father was a bishonen if you've ever seen one, yet their kid is more ugly than a Hutt with his face caved in. Although, given that demons can shapeshift, it's unlikely that Jinenji's father actually looked like that since a half-demon's appearance and traits reflects the true form of their demon parent. Some come out to be beautiful and humanlike, others come out horrifying. |

In Vampire Academy, the vampiric Moroi are physically frail (which is compensated for by their elemental magic and healing factors), so they interbreed with humans in order to create dhampirs- which have the strength of full humans and a slight healing factor- to protect themselves from the Strigoi. Dhampirs cannot procreate with humans or among themselves, and do not have to drink blood like either vampiric races. | |

Xanth sidesteps the issue of genetics with its "love springs," which cause the drinker to fall in love with whoever they see next, and also allow for the birth of offspring even from pairings that should create none. In extreme cases, a shapeshifter is born, but usually the child is just half-and-half. (Among other things, this is where centaurs came from — explorers led their mares to drink ....) | |

Dungeons & Dragons does this with many races and monsters. 3rd and 3.5's Half-Orcs and Half-Elves were both fairly infamous for being weaker than either parent race in terms of stats and racial abilities. In 4E, they abandoned the idea of half-elves being "halfway to an elf," so to speak, and expanded on the idea that they were inherently versatile (which makes a lot less sense, but works a lot better). An example of Hybrid Vigor Similarly, Dark Sun has Half-Dwarves called Muls who are midway in height and ability between both parent races. In keeping with the Grimdark setting, it's established that mothers rarely survive a Mul pregnancy, and most Muls wind up as slaves. Some variation of this is so dominant in D&D interbreeding (although, admittedly, once it gets to weirder crossbreeds the explanation tends to boil down to Magic Did It) — even the more mechanically diverged half-elves are usually still described as physically in-between human and elf — that the aversions tends to be notable. One Forgotten Realms source, for example, indicated that dwarf traits were so dominating over human traits that a half-dwarf, half-human for practically all purposes is a dwarf that had been born to two non-related parentsnote the relative issue was a serious problem in some northern dwarf communities as due to a period of rampant cloning for warfare purposes and the unwillingness of the clones to just be slave warriors to die genetic variety was way down, depressing fertility. |

Scorpius in Farscape looks like something intermediate between a Scarran and a Sebacean, but his two halves are at war with each other, since Scarrans produce excess body heat naturally and Sebaceans are very intolerant of heat, entering a coma-like state when their internal body temperature (which they cannot regulate) gets too high. Scorpius compensates for this disability with an internal cooling apparatus. Scorpius also possesses an ability due to his hybrid nature that is unique to him and not present in either of his parents' species: he can see heat patterns and detect when a being is lying. Interestingly, Scorpius's appearance is similar to the more humanoid, upper-caste Scarrans, rather than the lower-caste Scarran who fathered him. D'argo's half-Sebacean son, Jothee is essentially the Farscape version of a Klingon-Human hybrid: physically stronger than a Sebacean but weaker than a full Luxan, possesses his father's stinging tongue but isn't as coordinated with it, and has a weaker sense of smell than a full Luxan that is still superior to a Sebacean's. He even has somewhat intermediate features, though this is partly due to his attempts to make himself look more Sebacean by mutilating his face and tentacles. When he returns in The Peacekeeper Wars, after having learned to accept his Luxan side, he looks more or less indistinguishable from any other Luxan. They might have done this to hide the fact that he was now being played by a different actor. |

Human height works in many ways similarly to the skin colour example above, but is complicated by the effect of sex. Still, a person with both tall and short people in their ancestry is likely to end up somewhere in the middle, but it's possible for a person to be taller than either parent, or shorter than either parent. It's even possible for two parents with dwarfism to have children without dwarfism, and vice versa. Mother Nature's a MAD scientist, Jerry! | |

I Don't Want This Kind of Hero: Played straight and subverted. Half-Human Hybrids take after both the animal and the human, but if two different hybrids produce a child, the child will only receive the animal characteristics of one parent.

The Elder Scrolls: This is how the Breton race came to be. Their (human) ancestors were Breeding Slaves to the Direnni Altmer of High Rock. Over the course of many generations, some of the Elven traits started to come through with greater dominance. This has led the Bretons to be the most magically inclined race of Men in Tamriel at the cost of some of the Humans Are Warriors traits of the other races of Men. Although the series generally averts this; the various races of Men and Mer can interbreed but the offspring will mostly take after the mother. So if an Imperial man and a Altmer woman conceive a child, the child will be identifiably Altmer with a few faint traits from the Imperial father sprinkled in. |

This is also the classic method of half-human stats in Shadowrun. Averted in the 3rd Edition of the game, where they stated that with magic being new to the Sixth World, the meta-races were still in a state of flux, such that the product of two different meta-races mating would result in offspring that was one or the other, not a mix of both. On the same token, it was still possible (though rare) for two parents of the same meta-race to produce offspring of a different meta-race. | |

Tedd from El Goonish Shive: Tedd. Father is Caucasian and has natural blue hair. Nanase, Tedd's cousin on his mother's side, is a redhead of Asian descent and it's often extrapolated that Tedd's mother is too. Result: Tedd has purple hair and his eyes are slightly slanted (less than Nanase's). Nanase's recent magic-burnout turned her hair black, so it could be that having magics screws around with your hair-color. With Grace it was pulled the other way around. She's a human-squirrel hybrid, right? Do you think Shive doesn't know how a squirrel's teeth look like or she got Cute Little Fangs just for fanservice? When the exposition caught with her, Grace turned out to have two other parents of different extraterrestrial species. And the exact make-up greatly surprised even another chimera who knew what can be expected. |

Kryptonian/Human hybrids Follow this trope perfectly in any alt universe or future story that shows Superman with children. Superman's children with Lois have his powers and weaknesses at half strength. Their children (when they breed with humans) are 1/4th strength and so on. In one Elseworlds, Superman's ancestor landed during the American Revolution, crushing it and creating his own British empire. The story is set in the present where Kal-El's genetics are so watered down, that he has no powers at all and his father was only marginally superhuman. | |

This happens in a nonmagical way in the World Neverland series. Children have a random combination of their parents' traits, so blonde and redhead characters with dark skin are common. | |

The Bolt Chronicles: Subverted in "The Kippies." The initial section of the story suggests Bolt and Mittens have produced Patchwork Kids that feature both canine and feline traits in equal balance. It's revealed later that this is all a daydream conjured up by Mittens, who is unhappy that she'll never have offspring with Bolt or otherwise. | |

Warrior Cats: There are multiple male tortoiseshell and calico cats, which are incredibly rare due to the pattern requiring them to have an extra X chromosome. Spiderleg is a black cat with a brown belly, which should be impossible because the two colors are carried on the same gene and black is completely dominant over brown. Barring some rare genetic flukes, note like the black alleles being rendered non-functional on his belly or being a chimera with a brown kitten he absorbed in utero Spiderleg should be solid black. |

Red Moon Rising (Moore): Played straight with half-human vamps, who are fairly similar to both sides of their family tree and share the weaknesses of both species. Subverted with any half-human wulves, where the wulf genes are dominant and the person is considered either a full-wulf or not a wulf at all depending on whether their parents can afford gene-therapy to suppress the wolf side of their biology (and avert the Change). Danny is a different subversion, because he is a half-wulf, half-vamp, and his gene therapy was incomplete. So his wulf genes were weakened but not suppressed and his vamp traits are constantly battling it out. At the beginning of the book he's not as stocky as a wulf but not as tall as a vamp. He has wulf hair colour, but vamp eyes and intelligence. As he comes closer to the Change, he grows excessive body hair like a wulf, but the Change itself leaves him mostly cognizant when he should be feral, and doesn't alter his appearance as a normal wulf. |

In Star Trek: The Next Generation, Deanna Troi has a (telepathic) Betazoid mother and a (non-telepathic) human father, and is herself empathic: she can sense emotions psychically but not read individual thoughts (usually). | |
