In the Blood	comment	Characters appear to be able to inherit their parents' personalities, behaviour, and morality, in addition to their physical traits. Genealogy and ancestry are really popular tropes in fiction. It makes a great Secret Legacy, a source of fraternal conflict, adds drama with an unexpected family reunion, and can set up a host of different conflicts and relationships. Just like in real life, a person's ancestry can determine their genes and, to a lesser extent, their personality, and even their talents, but in fiction, this extends to skills, superpowers, and even moral alignment. Compare Strong Family Resemblance, where a character physically resembles their relative, and Family Eye Resemblance, a subtler way of hinting at the inheritance using eyes. Supertrope to Heroic Lineage and Villainous Lineage, where the inherited personality traits are, respectively, heroism and villainy. See also Shared Family Quirks and It Runs in the Family.

In the Blood / int_135e4265	comment	In The Barrakee Mystery, the first of the Bony'' novels, it's taken as read that a person with Aboriginal ancestry will never be entirely comfortable in white society and will always sooner or later hear the call of the bush — to the point that a character who was raised as white starts reverting to the traditional lifestyle and manifesting skills like animal tracking even before they learn about their ancestry. (Bony himself has found a balance: he has his niche in white society, but there are also times when disappears into the bush for a while to live in the ways of his ancestors.)

In the Blood / int_1463a028	comment	Law & Order: Special Victims Unit: A recurring fear for Olivia Benson is that deep inside her is a violent, sadistic criminal spawned by her rapist father. She went through a very complicated situation where it seemed her fears were coming true... and not through her, but through her half-brother Simon, who was accused of raping a handicapped woman who later killed herself. He was framed by the victim's sister, though. John Munch has also voiced concern at least once that he may end up committing suicide like his father. There was also an episode where a man who was violently molested by his father worries about becoming just like him and his felon brother — and does so. Munch's fear isn't unreasonable: his uncle Andrew (played by Jerry Lewis in an episode) had mental problems, and that sort of thing, which can result in suicide, can be heritable. Goren on Law & Order: Criminal Intent has the same concerns due to a family history of schizophrenia. One episode has the defendant's lawyer claim he was genetically predisposed to rape. His father was also a rapist, and in fact conceived him this way. The jury doesn't buy it, though.

In the Blood / int_1bdeba5a	comment	X-Men: The Lensherr/Eisenhart/Maximoff/Dane family (Magneto's family) seems to have a lot of issues with this. The man himself tends to go mad fairly regularly, Scarlet Witch was responsible for Avengers Disassembled and House of M, Polaris also seems to spend half her time as an evil lunatic, and Quicksilver (getting off more lightly than the others) went kind of crazy after getting his powers back following the decimation (and all the times before). In the cases of Magneto and Polaris, it's implied that their powers render them literally bipolar when used to excess. Wanda, meanwhile, has been getting therapy and suspects that she's depressive, and points out that she also researched her brother's mental health - and reckons he's a textbook sociopath. Defied by Sunspot after learning that his father performed a Faceâ€“Heel Turn and joined with the villainous Hellfire Club. Despite the belief of multiple characters that he would end up like his father, and the attempt from some villains to corrupt him since they think him an easy target, Sunspot remains staunchly on the side of good, and in fact uses his father's fortune to buy out the villainous organisation A.I.M. and gear it towards heroic purposes.

Justified since Simon Sito became evil after some radiation messed up the wiring in his brain, and the condition appears to extend to the genetic level.

In the Blood / int_1f0bc3d3	comment	In Hellboy, Hellboy himself is the son of a demon prince but is a good guy in spite of his pedigree. The various other demons he meets are all convinced that he should be allied with them, and will make a Faceâ€“Heel Turn eventually. Hellboy himself is initially dismissive of the idea, but has become increasingly worried that there may be some truth to this. It's also played rather more literally than most examples: in "The Island", a man drains HB's blood and uses it to reanimate himself, and the blood causes the man to transform into the demon Hellboy "should have been". He also steals his crown and his name, which Hellboy then uses as a weapon.

In the Blood / int_2192aeb3	comment	Fire Emblem: In The Blazing Blade we have minor villain Erik, son of the corrupt Marquess Darin. In the next game in the continuity, Erik has grown up to be the exact same tyrannical ruler his father was, and repeats his predecessors' mistakes step by step, even going so far as to kidnap a little girl (for different reasons, but still). This is bothersome as Erik seemed repentant after being defeated by Eliwood and Hector. Also in The Blazing Blade, we have Canas, who agrees to teach Nino how to read and write and is overall nothing but kind to her. In the next game, his son Hugh is brash and rude... unless he can help out one of the orphans in the army (minus Raigh, but even then, Hugh let him run off with his Nosferatu tome after figuring he could make better use of it), whereupon he drops the attitude and is similarly kind to them. Niime, his grandmother, even remarks that he's "just like his father" upon learning of the Nosferatu incident. Very subtle in Radiant Dawn, but present nonetheless: One of the most amoral members of the Greil Mercenaries turned out to be the son of the Big Bad from the previous game. Possibly averted in that despite being amoral, he is also fiercely loyal (ahem) to Ike, and for lack of a conscience of his own, he often follows Ike's.

In the Blood / int_2212773a	comment	The Groosalugg from Angel also inverts it. He is a demon with human ancestors, and because of atavism he almost looks like a human being. And although most demons in his society are evil, he is really good. Later it turns out that many half-demons invert it. Half-demons are more likely to choose goodness than evil, and the evil half-demons have almost always been motivated by human motives, making it questionable whether their demonic origins made them evil. Not only half-demons, even pure demons are by no means always evil. Many demons in the series are more neutral than evil, and some are even good. Lorne is not only a good demon, but also more moral than most humans seen in the series.

Even when a ferret (one of the "vermin" species) named Veil is raised from infancy in the abbey, he ultimately turns out to be evil. "The goodies are good and the baddies are BAD, no grey areas." (Weirdly, cats are one of the few species that's an exception to this rule, being good or evil — in a series where mice are the standard heroes.) There are occasional exceptions, with good-aligned "vermin species" or evil-aligned "good species" but they are few and far between.

It's common knowledge that he's the grandson of the Silver Age Flash. What isn't common knowledge is that he's also descended from Barry's psychotic Evil Counterpart, Professor Zoom. He's known this fact since Impulse #25, but doesn't really think about it, let alone talk about it, unless someone explicitly brings it up, and more-or-less laughs off Zoom's accusation of "bloodline betrayal": However, other than Bart and Meloni, the Thawne line plays this entirely straight. "Chain Lightning" showed that, for centuries, the Thawnes would be villains to the West and Allen families of Flashes.

The Dukes' ancestors have also been allied with some other clans as far back as those clans have coexisted; this sometimes leads to Uncle Jesse recruiting the descendants of those clans as modern day allies by reminding them of that fact. Boss Hogg and Rosco's ancestors in the old west were also shown to be corrupt.

In the Blood / int_33888a01	comment	The Legend of Drizzt: Drizzt Do'Urden seems to get a break from the drow characteristic of being Always Chaotic Evil because his father is an exception, too. This also affected his upbringing, but there's a sense a "biological" excuse is seen as necessary. Interestingly, some other drow are implied to have had the potential to be good, but to have lost it due to the lives they've lived. Drizzt's sister turned evil due to their mother's influence, and Jarlaxle (who isn't even from Drizzt's family!) demonstrates what Drizzt observes as an odd sort of sanity for a drow, despite being a ruthless mercenary. Given Mooshi's comment that the children of evil species often demonstrate "not-so-subtle differences" from good races, a mutation is looking more and more probable, albeit a mutation that's struck more than one family line. In a later book, Catti-brie gives Drizzt a spiel about the inherent evil of goblinoids, who are apparently even more irredeemably evil than drow. When he points out that he's met a decent goblin before, she replies that he probably had something not-so-evil somewhere in his family tree.

Ash's father suffered from ADHD and psychosis, but eventually got effective treatment and lived a normal life before he died a hero. Ash did not directly inherit his father's madness, but he did inherit a genetic predisposition to it that would have gone undetected if it hadn't been for the trauma of being brutally assaulted by Team Rocket. This made him develop a far worse disorder than anything his father suffered.

In the Blood / int_3c2b2d3d	comment	Sabretooth's family seems to have this going, at least with the men. Victor's father is noted in all recaps of Creed's past to be an abusive asshole, chaining Creed to the basement and ripping out his teeth. Victor himself, of course, is just as bad if not worse, delighting in every evil thing he does (and he once ate a baby!). Victor's brother Saul is basically Victor but without as much muscle to back him up. Victor's son Graydon despised his parents for abandoning him and became an anti-mutant activist who also had ties to murderous youth gangs. The only exceptions we've seen to the "Creed = asshole" law is Victor's brother Luther who we barely saw (and who was just a bratty kid when he was killed), his mother who we don't see much of, and Clara, Sabretooth's sister who doesn't demonstrate any of the evil tendencies of her family.

In the Blood / int_43576f5	comment	Supernatural's Sam Winchester develops psychic powers slightly before the start of the show, which eventually turns out to come from their family's demonic nemesis having fed Sam his own demonic blood in the cradle. Fear about destiny and inevitability increase as more and more of the other children so marked go 'darkside,' or in one case kill their psychotic brother who had, and their father's final words to Dean are that if he can't save Sam, he may have to kill him. Sam resists the original 'destiny' associated with this status by not killing during the demon's little Deadly Game, but the other survivor opens the gate to Hell anyway. Later, after he developed his powers further by drinking more demon blood to exorcise demons so he could prevent the Apocalypse and became addicted, it turned out that he'd been being prepped for years to open a different door, the one to Lucifer's cage. This gets treated as In The Blood despite it just being a few drops of ingested liquid rather than actual heredity. Once it turned out their mother Mary sold Azazel the right to take 'something' from her house in ten years, and that in cases where he wasn't interrupted no one was killed or kidnapped, it seemed the demon did in fact have the rights of a parent over the kids he'd bought, and the blood thing was claiming that and preparing them to open the doors and enable the endgame. Presumably, he was only in charge of opening doors, given that Sam was the favorite but not necessary to his understanding of the endgame, and chance or destiny or Lilith arranged the rest. Destiny also grabbed the Winchesters by the veins in that they are apparently descended on both sides from a line of archangel vessels, and were born to house Lucifer and Michael for their final apocalyptic battle on earth. Lucifer says, "It had to be you, Sam. It always had to be you." Presumably, the Campbell line was Lucifer's vessels and the Winchester was Michael's, and the reason they had to bring the two together in John and Mary was that the final vessels needed to be brothers. Lucifer's lack of interest in Adam and Michael's in Mary might point this way, but it's not conclusive. The idea of destiny is thrown about a lot here, but given how hard Heaven and Hell both had to work to make it happen, Destiny may just mean 'the plan.' See also, The Call Knows Where You Live. There is an in-universe procedure for breeding actual half-demon children. The one who turns up in season five is apparently the Antichrist, a decent little kid named Jesse with enough power to hypothetically threaten the Heavenly Host. The Winchesters talk to him a bit, borrowing help from Spiderman, and the kid becomes an Anti Anti Christ by running away from home and vanishing so he couldn't be used in any war, despite the fact that he could have saved the world from many of its major threats since and might be a major resource against the Leviathan in the current storyline. In the Blood apparently defied here. In Season 10, Cain snaps and goes on a killing spree targeting his descendants, believing that they inherited his murderous taint and that the world would be better off without them. This is especially bad since Cain, being the son of Adam and Eve, is one of the first humans who ever existed. His descendants make up a good chunk of humanity.

In the Blood / int_4522fd1	comment	In the Whateley Universe, Whateley Academy has an official "club" known commonly as The Bad Seeds. Admission? One or both of your parents must be a supervillain. Some kids take to this like ducks to water, some resist, some don't know what to do, some are pretty clueless even for teenagers. Nacht has a supervillain mother who is constantly trying to get Nacht to use her powers to help mommy commit crimes; Nacht doesn't mind the crime part, but she really doesn't want to spend time with her mother. Jobe is a ruthless, amoral genius bio-devisor who even looks like his supervillain dad; his dad hates that junior doesn't have a flair for mechanical devises instead. Carmilla has Deep Ones in her mother's ancestry, and is the grandchild of Shub-Niggurath on her father's side; she's taking the Screw Destiny approach right now. And so on... It's worth noting that membership in the Bad Seeds does not in itself infer an intention to become a supervillain (some do, some don't, and the setting makes plain that either is no more likely than any other high school career ambition) they're just more-or-less stuck together for mutual protection because everyone else fears that evil is in their blood.

In the Blood / int_48b0dd11	comment	A Swiftly Tilting Planet: Played straight with Gwydyr's descendants and the Mortmain family. All of the descendants of Gwydyr are bad news: Gwydyr arrogates himself to the position of king of the People Across the Lake; later, his descendant, Gedder, uses scheming and murder to gain prominence of Vespugia. Even Gedder's seemingly harmless sister, Zillie will, if she marries Bran, become the ancestor of the Omnicidal Maniac Mad Dog Branzillo, who plans to destroy the world in a nuclear war. Later, in the revised timeline, in Troubling A Star, another descendant, Guedder, is the dictator of Vespugia, whose scheming ensnares Vicky. Similarly, anyone with the last name Mortmain is similarly tainted. During Colonial times, Pastor Mortmain and his son Duthbert attempt to railroad Zylle for witchcraft. Later, during Beezie's childhood, a descendant, Duthbert Mortmain (II?) is a competent businessman — who beats his wife and makes passes at his thirteen-year-old stepdaughter. His son inherits his criminality but none of his competence and dies in prison. The Maddoxes, Llawcaes, and O'Keefes are an interesting example. The Maddoxes and Llawcaes are generally good families, but one person's intermarriage, as with Gwen and Gedder or Bran and Zillie, can spoil the entire family tree from that point forward. The O'Keefes are generally a degenerate family, including Jack, who flings homeless puppies to death against the wall of the barn, and Paddy, who schemes with Duthbert the Younger to have Chuck committed. However, when Paddy and Beezie marry, although most of their children take after their father, becoming bullies and thugs, Calvin inherits the Maddox traits and becomes one of the heroes of A Wrinkle in Time and A Wind in the Door Later, all of Calvin's children inherit the good Maddox traits rather than the bad O'Keefe traits.

In the Blood / int_57f80079	comment	There are several examples of this in The Mortal Instruments. Jace thinks he is evil because he is the son of Valentine, and because he believes that Valentine has been experimenting with demon blood on him and that it is corrupting him into evil. But Clary realizes early on in the plot that Jace is not half as bad as he thinks he is, even though he sometimes behaves like a jerk. As it later turns out that he is not the son of Valentine, and was not even made by him partially demonic, his attitude changes. He is still the son of fanatical demon hunters. Clary Fairchild is actually the daughter of Valentine. But she also inverts it, because she is not evil at all. But it's playing straight with her brother Jonathan Morgenstern. He is a cruel and sadistic person. The reason for this is not that he is the son of Valentine, but that he was partly a demon due to the experiments with demon blood, and thus was corrupted into evil. Valentine hoped to create a stronger kind of nephilim, but he was horrified by his demonic leanings. There has been a long history of racist reservations about warlocks who are born between demons and humans. Demons are always evil, but warlocks are not very different in their morale from humans. Fairies are also considered evil. They are the descendants of angels and demons, and they are said to be as beautiful as angels, but as evil as demons. However, the books also show many benign (or at least neutral) fairies, and even the most vicious fairies are not as evil as demons. Mark and Helen Blackthorn from The Dark Artifices are two half-fairies and they will be cast out of the community because the shadowhunters believe that the fairy-blood in them will lead them to evil and they will betray the nephilim. But actually it is nothing more than a racist reservation.

After he joined The Nation of Domination and later became The Rock, he became one of the most popular wrestlers of all time, so popular that he was able to retire from wrestling and has had a successful movie career. His ancestry has paled in comparison to his success. Though he is in the Real Life bloodline of the Anoa'i wrestling dynasty, which is a vastly sprawling family of Samoan-Americans known for their professional wrestling careers. This is actually a subversion, though, as many Anoa'i wrestlers rarely bring up their connections to the greater family (usually it's the commentators who discuss the heritages that they're descended from).

In the Blood / int_5cfb879b	comment	New Gods: Scott Free, Mr. Miracle the escape artist superhero, is the son that the Highfather (who raised Orion) traded to Darkseid in exchange. He was raised with the other children of Apokolips under Granny Goodness, but he and his Apokoliptan girlfriend, Big Barda, broke out. It's hard to say how much of a factor his New God blood was, but that he developed a coherent sense of morality under Granny's regime probably has to be attributed there. Orion is the son that Darkseid (who raised Scott Free) traded to Highfather in exchange. He's a good guy, but he inherited Darkseid's inherent rage and bloodlust, and requires a Mother Box to keep his temper in check. However, he was also raised well by the Highfather and aided by his friends to channel that rage become a hero in defense of his adopted home.

In the Blood / int_61484102	comment	The Maddoxes, Llawcaes, and O'Keefes are an interesting example. The Maddoxes and Llawcaes are generally good families, but one person's intermarriage, as with Gwen and Gedder or Bran and Zillie, can spoil the entire family tree from that point forward. The O'Keefes are generally a degenerate family, including Jack, who flings homeless puppies to death against the wall of the barn, and Paddy, who schemes with Duthbert the Younger to have Chuck committed. However, when Paddy and Beezie marry, although most of their children take after their father, becoming bullies and thugs, Calvin inherits the Maddox traits and becomes one of the heroes of A Wrinkle in Time and A Wind in the Door Later, all of Calvin's children inherit the good Maddox traits rather than the bad O'Keefe traits.

There was also an episode where a man who was violently molested by his father worries about becoming just like him and his felon brother — and does so. Munch's fear isn't unreasonable: his uncle Andrew (played by Jerry Lewis in an episode) had mental problems, and that sort of thing, which can result in suicide, can be heritable. Goren on Law & Order: Criminal Intent has the same concerns due to a family history of schizophrenia.

In the Blood / int_6ac55ec7	comment	The descendants of extra-planar creatures in Dungeons & Dragons tend towards the alignments of their forebears. Thus, half-celestials and half-fiends are almost guaranteed to be good and evil. Their descendants, aasimar/deva and tieflings, are also predisposed (though not guaranteed) to maintain their ancestors' alignment. Half-orcs, no matter how civilized their upbringing, favor the barbarian class (especially in 3rd Edition), apparently inheriting the Orc's wild nature. The offspring of a Generally Chaotic Good Nymph and a Always Lawful Evil Devil is a Neutral Evil, misshapen, goat legged midget called a Forlarren. They typically befriend the party with tales of their tragic past but the evil inherited from their Devil father(It's all but stated that they're a result of rape) causes them to murder a member of the party. Played with in the race of tieflings, who are the descendant of humans and devils. The race itself is actually an aversion in that despite being descended from devils, tieflings are no more predisposed toward good or evil than their human cousins. But many people believe they are and treat them accordingly. Ironically, this does lead some to embrace their heritage, which then reinforces their evil reputation. Nonetheless, there are heroic tieflings who try and convince people that the tieflings are not evil by nature and many more who simply try and keep their heads down. Half-drow are hated and avoided by other people because they are related to the drow. In addition, they have a great similarity with them on the outside. Most people can not distinguish a half-drow from a drow. However, half-drow more quickly recognize the lies in the doctrine of Lolth, and can better resist the evil than pure drow. Although there are still many wicked half-drow, most of them go to the surface to become an adventurer, and, to prove others, that they are not like the drow. Always Chaotic Evil is at least slightly subverted however because "Always" doesn't actually mean "Always". Even a demon, who has pure Evil as part of their very substance, has a non-zero chance of not actually being evil. We're talking maybe 1% who are Neutral, and 0.1% who are good, but it does explicitly happen (though they are still made of Evil, and can be affected as such by spells). This has led to endless debate among players over whether or not this makes beings who the books say are "always evil" okay to kill on sight, even with the slight chance that they don't live up to their stat-blocks. The Book of Exalted Deeds (a handbook for being Good) says that killing them is wrong, but also points out that if the DM pulls a bait-and-switch too often by having monsters the players have been merciful to betray them, its understandable that they will be upset and less trusting in the future. Birthright all rotates around bloodlines (duh) carrying little portions of lost godly powers. The Ravenloft supplement Legacy of the Blood uses this trope extensively.

But it's not evil, it's insanity, which often is genetic. Lex, on the other hand, has evil genes, although the nurture side isn't helping either. Clark himself believed this of "Luthor blood", until the episode "Luthor" where he discovers that his alternate self, raised by Lionel Luthor, was monstrous as an actual Luthor even without the blood relation. This realization allows him to accept that Tess Mercer, the biological daughter of Lionel Luther, can be trusted to be a subversion of the trope. However, she apparently did inherit Lionel's Manipulative Bastard ability along with his tendency for pulling a Heelâ€“Face Revolving Door.

The villainous Melon was the son of a female leopard who was mentally unstable and a male gazelle who was a selfish scumbag.

In the Blood / int_8df5521b	comment	Superman: Superboy (New 52): This series' version of Superboy shares Superman's instinctual affection for farms in rural Kansas. Accompanied by him completely ignoring someone in a burning building. Red wonders if this means that he has a "deeply pathological, megalomaniacal narcissist, the likes of which the world has never known" as a donor. However, it turns out that Lex is not one of his donors, and this Superboy is actually the clone of a future son of Clark and Lois, and Superboy was aware that the people in the fire were just part of a simulation. He was just giving them the same concern that most people give random NPCs. At his worst, he's got a bit Blue-and-Orange Morality from his unusual upbringing, and he ends up turning into every bit the All-Loving Hero that Superman is. Subverted in The Girl with the X-Ray Mind. When the F.B.I. learn Lena Thorul is Lex Luthor's sister, they refuse to hire her just in case that she becomes a criminal like her brother. When she learns Lena has joined a criminal gang, Supergirl wonders if being a criminal really runs in the Luthor family. Then, it turns out Lena only joined the Bank Busters to have an opportunity to take them out from inside. Subverted in The Last Days of Superman. Brainiac 5 declines to help his fellow Legionnaires fulfil Superman's pending tasks and shuts himself in his lab. His teammates — including his own girlfriend, who should know better — start wondering if he will not be a Superman-hating criminal as his ancestor after all. Finally, Supergirl confronts him, and Querl Dox reveals he has been working on a cure for Superman's illness. Supergirl's Three Super Girl-Friends: Kara freaks out when she meets Querl Dox and realizes he resembles Brainiac. Querl confesses he is his great-great-grandson, but the first Brainiac is hated by all his descendants, who have spent ten centuries atoning for his misdeeds.

In the Blood / int_8dfbdff2	comment	In the Law & Order episode "Born Bad", a teenager on trial for murder has his parents put this forward as a legal defense — due to a unique genetic condition, the teen is predisposed to a life of violence, and thus not wholly responsible for his actions. This backfires in the most spectacular way possible, as the teen himself decides to plead guilty after hearing his own defense talk about how he's destined to be a violent criminal.

The line goes back to "Mad Dog" Tannen, a murderous Wild West outlaw who kills Doc Brown in one timeline. In 1955, Biff Tannen is a bully who tries to rape Marty's mother. In various timelines, Biff matures either into an abusive boss, a crime lord, or a bitter old man. Biff's grandson is a bully and a thug. However, it's implied that — absent all the time-travel anomalies — he does experience a Heelâ€“Face Turn. Instead of making Biff heroic, it turns him into a pathetic weakling who is forever sucking up to the man he bullied in high school.

In the Blood / int_9d47a2a2	comment	A Song of Ice and Fire: The Targaryen royal family line is said to be "tainted" with madness; one character says that every time a new Targaryen was born, the country would hold its breath to see if the new Targaryen would be one of the good ones or one of the mad ones. This may be explained by the family becoming seriously inbred due to repeated Brotherâ€“Sister Incest and Kissing Cousins; the inbreeding results in a fair number of this line having physical problems (fewer than you'd think, though, all things considered) and/or serious mental and emotional instability, while the luckier ones inherit the family's strong points and best qualities, managing to miss the damaging recessives. Others of a less practical bent also point out that messing with dragons for centuries might have accounted for some of their... quirks. The Starks are also known for having "wolf blood", denoting wildness and rebellion. Ned Stark reflects that his brother Brandon and sister Lyanna had it and, of his children, notes that his younger daughter Arya has inherited those traits. Sansa is told she has "traitor's blood" by her family's enemies in King's Landing. Jon, who is already recognizable as Ned Stark's illegitimate son, is said by Janos Slynt to be "untrustworthy" due to his "wolf" blood as Jon's father "died a traitor". Whatever it is in the Bolton linage, you know it ain't good news when enough sadism of various descriptions has cropped up to get you a flayed man as a readily identifiable House sigil — as well as a broad collection of very nasty rumours piling up over centuries around your family name. Added to all that is a House seat called... The Dreadfort. You can't say you're not warned... The Lannisters who appear in the books share the traits of snark (in various degrees) and (as an effect of the former) of complete inability to shut their mouths, even at sword-point or crossbow-point. Fire & Blood shows that Tywin and Cersei's fondness for looting, pillaging, burning their enemies to the ground and salting anything that remains goes back several generations — Jayne Lannister (nee Westerling) wanted to kill every man, woman and child on the Iron Islands after one raid too many by the Red Kraken. She settled for burning and pillaging, along with abducting one of the Greyjoys, gelding him and turning him into her fool. Whether it's due to genetics or upbringing, most members of House Frey resemble their patriarch Walder Frey in looks and morality (not a good thing).

He ends up like a normal kid with some special powers he's only partially aware of. Even his hell hound ends up being like a normal dog, though with some worry on its part. They address this trope directly at one point, with Crowley pointing out that Lucifer was originally an angel, so the idea that Adam is destined to become evil due to demonic genetics is absurd.

Also, Charter bloodlines seem to share certain personality trains, most prominently in the heads of the bloodline (i.e. tendancy towards soliture in the Abhorsens, charisma in the Royal line, a certain airiness in the Clayr).

Certainly they're related to the Charter abilities that run in the Blood (Clairvoyance for the Clayr, the Death sense for the Abhorsen, innate talent with creating things for the Wallmakers, innate abilities to lead(?) for the Royals).

But in the end it turns out that they aren't related to the Bosquito at all; it was just evil propaganda. A rather nasty aesop. Also conveniently ignores the fact that humans are descended from creatures that feed on the "life force" of others, and still do. It's called "eating meat"... That's just chemistry.

While those seen in House of the Dragon hadn't gotten there just yet (though shades of this showed up in Aemond, ironically from a non-Targaryen contribution in the family, his mother Alicent Hightower that is), their descendant Aerys was certifiably insane and he passed at least part of this on to Viserys.

The Precursors of humanity living on Mars developed a new chromosome that wiped out disease and made them super human... or super evil (You can guess what wiped them out). Apparently, the chromosome reacted to the something in the "unmapped 10% of the human genome" that unlocked a person's latent "evil" and mutated them into a monster; the best these genetically evil people can hope for is a Heroic Sacrifice before they fully mutate. So Rousseau was wrong, technically people are genetically evil, and all it takes is a little help from The Virus to bring it out.

In the Blood / int_bcadd7cb	comment	Used extensively in Warhammer 40,000. The God-Emperor of Man created the twenty Primarchs, and when each wound up being raised on an alien planet by whoever happened to stumble across them, each become an immensely skilled warrior, and most of them ruled a planet or ten. The modern-day Space Marines are all genetically modified with gene-seed based on one of the Primarchs, and all exhibit behavior similar to that Primarch — the Blood Angels and their descendants, for example, all tend to be pious, noble, and prone to turning into bloodthirsty kamikaze maniacs intent on ripping the enemy limb from limb and drinking their blood. The Tyranid genestealers use this trope as their means of infiltrating other races. They implant their victims with Tyranid genetic material which subverts the genes of the victims. The victim's children are born as hybrids and become genestealer cultists by default. The Space Marines, however, are subjected to extreme hypnosis and mild brainwashing at the same time as they receive the gene-seed. This is mostly to make sure all their implants work, but the result is that they end up more like their Primarchs than when they started — and they were selected in the first place due to their similarity. Somewhat subverted as well. The God Emperor was possibly the most powerful psyker to ever live, supposedly because he was the result of an entire generation of ancient psykers sacrificing themselves to become one combined soul. Out of all of the Primarchs, Magnus the Red, Sanguinius, Konrad Curze, and Lorgar were the only psykers. And only Magnus developed and trained his psyker abilities. The Primarchs' appearances were also radically different from each other: Magnus in particular was a red-skinned cyclops (though later editions claim that Magnus lost the eye as part of his deal with Tzeentch rather being born a cyclops).

In the Blood / int_c62995ba	comment	Child of the Storm: Harry is noted to have inherited the potential for 'The Warrior's Madness' from his father's line (Thor was James Potter. It was a first run at the humility thing. Long story). Most of the inherited traits are more positive, though, such as a natural inclination towards Chronic Hero Syndrome, even if he does become a Knight in Sour Armour for a while. He also gets an inclination towards fire magic, thoughtless kindness, and secretiveness from his mother — to the point where he demonstrates an increasing number of Lily's mannerisms as he gets older. Carol is noted early on as a remarkably gifted strategist with a knack for a command and a proclivity for using shields in combat. All of this, plus her appearance, hints that she's descended from Steve Rogers and Peggy Carter. It's soon noted that Hermione gets a certain tone of cold-blooded detachment and a profoundly ruthless streak from her biological grandfather, Magneto.

In the Blood / int_cae652c	comment	Hunter Ã— Hunter: The Ant King Meruem was born full-grown, intelligent, utterly selfish, and with the mission to conquer the world. Most of his character development as he grew up just reinforced his Blue-and-Orange Morality Evil, but he eventually, after a few months and under the influence of a sweet little blind girl with a perpetually runny nose whom he couldn't beat at a strategy game, developed into an honorable adult being. Still very cruel and arrogant, but given he was possibly the most powerful thing on the planet it would be hard not to be. Given his mother's attitude and the fact that he presumably contains bits of the sentience of various humans she ate during his gestation, because that's a chimaera ant ability, it's hard to say what can be called In the Blood for him, but he seems to have risen above his nature.

In the Blood / int_ccf875f7	comment	Criminal Minds: The profilers always debate the possibility of a Serial Killer's offspring growing up to be like their parent whenever one of them is revealed to have kids. Justifiable discussion, since psychopathy is suspected to have mainly genetic predispositions, whereas Sociopathy mainly environmental. Not all people predisposed to become Psychopaths become such, and not every Psychopath becomes a Serial Killer. Spencer Reid worries a lot about becoming a paranoid schizophrenic — like his mother, as there is a higher chance of it occurring in him if a family member also has had it. In "Birthright", a man who never knew his father found his journal detailing his killings and decided to become his copycat. However, his half-brother by one of his father's victims who escaped appears to be a decent guy with no inherited tendencies towards murder or rape, though he may have inherited his father's alcoholism. Averted by the wife of a serial killer who was on death row for killing her infant son to prevent him from growing up with the Awful Truth about his father except she secretly gave him up for adoption as a baby to a loving family and was willing to face execution because the truth would exonerate her but also burden her son with the knowledge of his parentage. Even the BAU decides she did the right thing in the end even if they wouldn't have made the same choice. "In the Blood" was actually used as the title of an episode. In it, a man with a history of mental problems finds out he's the descendant of William Stoughton, chief justice in the Salem Witch Trials, and begins to imagine himself as The Witch Hunter; he kills his first two victims using Salem's actual methods, pressing and hanging, before deciding to Burn the Witch! for his final one.

Then Joe, the family friend who once owned the family restaurant with their late father, shows up. Bailey at first thinks Joe is going to talk about how disappointed Bailey's father would be if he were still alive, but Joe reveals he would say instead, "Not you, too." Bailey thinks this is just another ploy, until he sees how shocked Charlie, Julia and especially Claudia are at the news. What makes it worse is this (temporarily) convinces Bailey he's better off staying an alcoholic.

In the Blood / int_d5164c46	comment	Hades has a field day with this trope. Much of the game's central themes deal with family and how not even gods can escape the lot they're born into. The main character Zagreus is clearly the son of Hades, with a black eye with red iris, smoldering feet, hair as black as night and a royal, burning wreath, and of Persephone, with the same hairstyle, one normal eye with green iris and red blood from her mother's partially-mortal heritage. He also inherits personality traits of both; from Hades he has stubbornness, pride and unwillingness to change, and from Persephone he has his free-spirited nature and gentle demeanor. On top of all this, being a game based on Greek Myth, the gods and their relationship to each other is at the forefront of the story. As the gods of Olympus begin to support Zagreus' escape attempts, he goes from being ecstatic about getting to finally hear from his relatives to slowly realizing just how messed up his extended family is. In fact, he begins to begrudgingly respect his own father, Hades, who he otherwise have no positive feelings on, for being principled, honest and forthright - the same qualities that Persephone saw in him. This is a game where you play as the only god that bleeds human red blood, emerge from a bloody pool every time you time without fail, where the entirety of the plot concerns Zagreus' attempts to find his mother, reconcile with her, mend your own Cthonic family and finally mend the rift between yours and the extended family you have on Olympus, and where the theme is that you cannot escape your birthright, no matter how grim it may seem. The song that plays when Zagreus meets his goal? "In The Blood".

And it seems he and Merlyn are right to worry, since the more time he spends with Buck, and the more he learns from him, the more cruel, amoral, callous, and sadistic he becomes. This is likely helped along by his near-death experience, Buck's powers, and being possessed by Buck but the simple fact is after ten or so years of showing no signs of evil, once he learns of his (possible) heritage, Caleb's fall into darkness is somehow inevitable.

In the Blood / int_de6659ec	comment	Once Upon a Time Cora came to believe that love was a weakness that had to be removed, so she used her dark magic to take out her own heart, preventing her from making such attachments. She went on to force Regina to conform to a path that gave her power, leading to Regina asking Rumpelstiltskin for power, eventually turning her into the Evil Queen. This can also apply to Zelena too, as Cora abandoned her and favor Regina, fostering the envy that turned her into the Wicked Witch. Rumpelstiltskin was a cowardly man whose parents both abandoned him just as his own father was abandoned, and as he did to his own son who ended up embracing the temptation of power via the curse of the Dark One and becoming one of the most powerful practitioners of dark magic in all the realms. His mother became the Black Fairy, a being so adept in dark magic that she claims to have "invented it" and nearly destroyed all of the realms of story by herself. His father Malcom who became Peter Pan was a sociopathic man-child who abandoned his own son so that he could gain immortality and power through Neverland's magic that and he unfairly blamed him for what his wife turned into. If anything, it would have been a miracle if he didn't turn evil.note Technically, he was meant to become a great hero, but his destiny was severed by his mother using the shears of destiny, thus leading him down his dark path since infancy His son Baelfire almost went down the same path in "Ill Boding Patterns", but Rumpelstiltskin drugged him with a memory potion to prevent him from remembering the allure of Rumpel's dark magic.

The person becomes, as it were, the epitome of the history of his own family." Watson calls this "rather fanciful", to which Holmes admits that he doesn't "insist" on it. Holmes made similar allusions to Moriarty himself. ("A criminal strain ran through his blood...") In another case, Holmes deduced that a nice-seeming man was a closet villain because his young son was cruel to animals. While this isn't an implausible deduction, Holmes attributed the boy's misbehavior to this trope rather than to the trauma of abuse at his father's hands.

Incestuous breeding programs in the past to breed stronger Shanir have led to some very damaged bloodlines, exacerbated by dwindling numbers (and probably causing them, too, due to impacts on fertility). Heroine Jame and her twin brother Torisen are of the "royal" house of Knorth, inheriting both powerful abilities and the possibility of insanity; Torisen constantly worries that he carries the Knorth madness and worries he'll become his father. One of those abilities is also In the Blood; blood-binding. Anyone who consumes their blood will be bound to them mind, body and soul until death and beyond. Creepy stuff.

In the Blood / int_f475f785	comment	Legion (2017): David Haller inherited a lot of traits from his biological father Charles Xavier: they're both incredibly powerful telepaths, they share a Sweet Tooth (which includes a mutual fondness for cherry pie, and in "Chapter 26", David serves his father knowledge in the form of a cake slice knowing that Charles would be tempted to eat it), they both enjoy stargazing, and they're both brown-haired Pretty Boys who are of the exact same height (their actors, Dan Stevens and Harry Lloyd, are 183 cm / 6'0"). Like David, Charles also fell in love with a troubled woman while they were institutionalized at a psychiatric facility. David lampshades this in "Chapter 22." In "Chapter 26", Gabrielle Xavier discloses to Sydney Barrett that insanity runs in her family, and Syd concludes that Gabrielle's son David got his madness from his mother.

In the Blood / int_f61ea51b	comment	Interview with the Vampire (2022): Lestat de Lioncourt acknowledges that he's cursed with his father's temper, who had beaten him when he was a boy. Later as an adult, Lestat physically abuses his boyfriend Louis de Pointe du Lac and his vampire daughter Claudia. Claudia takes after Lestat, her maker; they're both vicious killers, prone to histrionics, fond of jewelry, have fallen madly in love with a mortal, hold little regard for human etiquette (e.g. they're both rude at funerals), are stalkers, and on at least one occasion, are peeping toms. They both adore Louis and want him for themselves, plus they disapprove of him being a Vegetarian Vampire. Louis himself says that they are more like each other than they want to admit, and that they both like to identify and exploit each other's weaknesses.

In the Blood / int_f6e5bd7f	comment	In Repo! The Genetic Opera, this is used in a more literal sense — Marni died from a rare blood disease, which her daughter, Shilo, inherited. 'Genetic Emancipation' is also based on this trope, Shilo sings it after realising that she hasn't inherited her mother's disease after all, but that her father was keeping her sick. Also played with in a figurative sense when Rotti is trying to get Shilo to kill her father. She claims she's not a murderer to which Rotti responds, "But you share your dad's genetics. What if he passed this to you?" Making reference to his murderous occupation.

In the Blood / int_f6eed39	comment	The Sopranos shows that Tony seems to have inherited his parents' worst traits due to a combination of genetics and a volatile upbringing. From his father he inherited his temper and propensity for violence while from his mother he inherited her depression as well as her narcissism. When his own son AJ is revealed to suffer from panic attacks he laments that his own "putrid blood" cursed his family to his psychiatrist.

In the Blood / int_f9b9dfe4	comment	Very subtle in Radiant Dawn, but present nonetheless: One of the most amoral members of the Greil Mercenaries turned out to be the son of the Big Bad from the previous game. Possibly averted in that despite being amoral, he is also fiercely loyal (ahem) to Ike, and for lack of a conscience of his own, he often follows Ike's.

In the Blood / int_fdf7a632	comment	The Shadows of Mexico setting for Vampire: The Requiem portray the Daeva native to that region, called Xoxocti, as priests of the gods. Thanks to centuries of foreign influence, their present day childer don't care about the old ways anymore. Instead, they use their vampiric powers to become sexy Latin pop stars, forcing their ancestors to view them as the children of kings who've been screwing whores. This Cultural Posturing is actually a large part of the setting's plot.
