Lineage Comes from the Father	comment	Maybe it's because Most Writers Are Male, but when a character has a legacy of royalty, villainy or heroics, it tends to come from the father. The implicit assumption is that if a character is going to inherit something of relevance from their bloodline, it's going to be from their father's side, never their mother's. This is applied to both sons and daughters. This is often paired with Single Line of Descent, creating a long line of fathers and sons. Compare the similar trope Never a Self-Made Woman, where important female characters ultimately owe their positions or talents to men. It may be an In-Universe reason why Nature Adores a Virgin, and why My Girl Is Not a Slut, especially if the Daddy DNA Test does not exist and neither does much in the way of reliable birth control. The idea is that it's important to know whose kids are whose, and therefore, it's important that one's wife never have slept with anyone else, usually tied to an even bigger concept that Men Act, Women Are. If the matter in question is legal inheritance, you're looking at its sister trope Heir Club for Men. Lineage Comes From The Father is concerned with the less traditional "inheritance"—for example, villainy or heroics, rather than a title or money. The prevalence of this trope is such that most examples will be subversions. In the case of a Matriarchy or otherwise matrilineal society, this trope is automatically Gender-Inverted. A Super-Trope to Gender Equals Breed, though in that trope, the daughter takes after the mother instead. Frequently overlaps with I Am X, Son of Y, when "Y" refers to the father instead of the mother. Compare Ridiculously Long-lived Family Name.

Lineage Comes from the Father / int_1aacbbc9	comment	In Dragon Age, played with a few different ways: Dwarves play this straight 50% of the time, with the recognized lineage and caste of a child being determined by that of their same-sex parent. This means that you could have opposite sex full siblings of completely different castes. In the novels this is inverted by (eventual) King Maric, whose mother Queen Moira Theirin was an unparalleled badass both on the field and behind the scenes. Maric's biggest struggle is living up to her legacy. Maric's father by comparison gets very little focus and was mostly important because he was related to the Teyrn of Gwaren. Moira was also Queen Regnant in relation to her husband, the Prince Consort. Played straight by Maric's own offspring, though. The City Elf is said to take more after their willful mother than their father. Inverted and... uh... played straight in Dragon Age II? Considering Hawke's father sort of created his own legacy (and we don't even know his past too well before he ever met Leandra, but it's implied to be not very pleasant) by aiding the Wardens, that's the straight part. The inversion would stem from Leandra's side of the family, the Amell lineage, which is noble. In Dragon Age: Inquisition, this is the reason which Grand Duke Gaspard blames for the fact that his cousin Celene, the youngest of Emperor Judicael I's six grandchildren, was able to take the throne of Orlais. Judicael's three eldest grandchildren died in their youth, and Gaspard (the only surviving grandson) was raised with the expectation that he would one day be Emperor; however, his royal parent is his mother, Princess Melisande. Celene, on the other hand, is Judicael's granddaughter through her father, Prince Reynaud. There were other factors involved in Celene taking the throne, but this trope was likely a contributor. Inverted in the case of Andraste's theorized descendants. Andraste had two daughters, and the younger one had many daughters herself, who then married into various Tevinter families, which use patrilineal naming traditions. Unfortunately, the records of these and subsequent marriages were lost in the second Blight. The Chantry believes that Andraste's bloodline is only capable of producing daughters, so a man, or anyone claiming to be descended from Andraste through their father's side, is automatically disqualified.

Lineage Comes from the Father / int_1cc09117	comment	Bleach initially plays this straight with the main protagonist, Ichigo Kurosaki, whose spiritual awareness and successful transition into a Shinigami are attributed to the powers he inherited from his Shinigami father, Isshin, while his mother was a normal human whose sole importance is to perform Heroic Sacrifice to protect her son. Then we learn in the final arc that Masaki was actually a powerful Quincy. All this time, whenever Ichigo tapped his "Shinigami" power, it's actually Quincy power. Ichigo has never used his Shinigami power, because he always unwittingly suppressed it; the "Hollow Ichigo" is Zangetsu, while the long-haired "Zangetsu" is his Quincy heritage manifesting in the form of Yhwach.

Lineage Comes from the Father / int_1e3fea4e	comment	In Apparatus Infernum, society tends to believe this, which creates a plot-relevant blind spot that hinders the protagonists. They'd like to track down descendants of a certain noble House, but the official records only concern themselves with the patrilineal line â€” and because that line came to an end, the House is considered extinct. In fact, if you count descent from women of the House in question who married into other Houses, descendants are still quite present â€” just under other names.

Lineage Comes from the Father / int_210767ac	comment	Numerous forms in Crusader Kings, depending on specific inheritance laws. For the purposes of continuing the game by bloodline, it's pure male-line. In vanilla, women cannot inherit but under Semisalic inheritance laws, the son of a king's first daughter will inherit over son of a younger son. The sequel takes some measures to avert this, introducing succession laws that allow females to inherit titles under specific circumstances as well as matrilineal marriages, in which the children are considered part of the mother's dynasty rather than the father's.

Lineage Comes from the Father / int_2192aeb3	comment	The Fire Emblem series features three (thus far) games with parent-child mechanics, all of them fairly similar despite the radically different approaches to all of them. It plays with this trope in various ways: For Genealogy, mothers have two children each, all with fixed classes, and their skill sets, weapons and Holy Blood can change depending on who their father is. Because of the fixed classes and limited amount of first gen units with holy blood, the second generation can either be a small army of horrendously broken Game Breakers or incredibly weak. The exceptions to this rule are Seliph (son of first-gen Lord Sigurd and Dierdre), siblings Altenna and Leif (the children of Cuan and Ethlyn), Julia (daughter of half-siblings Arvis and Dierdre), and Ares (son of Optional Boss Eldigan and his NPC wife Grahnye), as they are the product of fixed pairings, although Julia's abilities are drawn from her mother. The Sniper Faval is a prominent example, as he inherits his major Ulir blood, and the holy bow Yewfelle, from his mother Briggid. Awakening has said kids tied to mothers again. Both parents lend one reclassing option each and one skill each, with the father lending their hair color to the kids this time. The exceptions are Lucina (daughter of Chrom) and a female Morgan (daughter of a male Avatar). Due to the inflated stat caps, customizable growths, and the potential to pass down gender-exclusive skills to the children, the second generation in this game is arguably an even bigger Game-Breaker than Genealogy. Fire Emblem Fates plays this straight: while the mechanics for children are the same as Awakening for the most part, the children are all tied to their fathers this time, with the exceptions being a male Kana (son of a female Avatar) and Shigure (son of Azura). While unique class combinations can be passed down (namely the Avatar's Nohr Prince/Princess class and its promotions), this game's second generation is more on par with the first due to a lack of gender-exclusive skills and the children actually having their own growths that are only subtly influenced by whatever mother is chosen for each kid.

Unlike Kushina Uzumaki, she isn't the type of mother you would be proud of.

Lineage Comes from the Father / int_3e8c09b9	comment	Attack on Titan plays this straight, and Gender-Inverts it on several occasions. Mikasa's heritage zigzags this all over the place, with it ultimately proven that both her parents passed something significant on to her. Her superhuman abilities come from her father's heritage, while the "East Sea Clan" that her mother was descended from turn out to be major players on the world stage. Gender-Inverted with Levi, who turns out to be the Son of a Whore and inherited the superhuman abilities of the Ackerman clan from his late mother. That said, we don't yet know if his father is anyone of importance. Royal blood, and the unique heritage it entails, is passed down with no regards for gender. One case, Historia Reiss plays this trope straight, while the case of Zeke Yeager is a Gender-Inversion. The founding of the royal line itself is a zig-zagged version. while the first known ruler of Eldia was a male, the first King Fritz, it was through his concubine, Ymir Fritz, that the power of the Titans entered the royal line and she passed the power unto her three daughters. Reiner Braun is another case that Gender-Inverts this trope. A mixed-race child, his mother's Eldian blood is what allows him to use the power of the Titans. This seems to be the case with any Eldian: so long as they have Eldian blood to some extent they're able to become Titans, whether it be mindless Titans or shifters. It's also implied that this applies to other powers in the series, such as the aforementioned Ackermans. It's the blood itself that matters, not which side of the family it comes from.

All of the royal family of White Court vampires were born from human mothers and got the vampirism from Lord Raith. Inverted for the main character himself, whose mother has so far been more important to the story than his father. This is because magic is almost always passed along matrilineal lines (it has to do with exposure to magic prior to birth â€” a child whose father has a talent for magic might have the genes for it, but they'll probably be dormant). Though since Harry's mother died in childbirth, his father Malcolm's kind and naÃ¯ve nature was a major influence on Harry's personality.

Lineage Comes from the Father / int_441ec102	comment	In The Shannara Chronicles this trope is played very strong. The young half-elf Will is the son of a male elf and a human female. When he experienced his adventures, he hears again and again that his father was a powerful wizard and a great hero who has achieved much good. Constantly he is prompted as to be a hero, as his father was one. From his mother you do not hear much after the first episode. You do not even learn her name. Later in the story, there is also another half-elf, a young girl who also had an elf as father and a human as mother.

Meanwhile, in Alba, inheritance passes from uncle to nephew, although this is later revealed to be motivated by the male rulers not trusting that their wives' sons are actually theirs, and preserving the lineage through their sisters. Meanwhile Imriel's significant lineage comes from both sides of his family.

Lineage Comes from the Father / int_4c746380	comment	Inuyasha: Inuyasha's supernatural powers and youkai inheritance comes from his father. Even his compassion for humans is stated to be from, thus making him like, his father (later reinforced by his full-youkai brother's growing compassion also being stated as coming from, and making him like, their father). In fact, there are three half-breeds who had a human mother, gain all their abilities from their father's side and had a father whose compassion towards humans essentially overshadows any contribution any of the mothers could have made even on this front. Though subverted with Izumo/Gyo-Oh, a half-demon whose father was human and his mother was a bull demon. He inherited his philosopher-like intellect (and the name Izumo for his human form) from his father's side, and his monstrous evil tendencies from his mother. Yashahime: Princess Half-Demon: Played straight with Towa and Setsuna, who got their special powers from their demonic father Sesshomaru. In particular, Towa uses Soryuha, the sword attack Sesshomaru was known for when he had TÅ�kijin (it should be noted, however, that Towa, despite her biological relationship, considers Sota Higurashi to be her real father for raising her). Zigzagged with Moroha. She is a sword fighter like her father. And she uses the same demon powers as he does, like the Sankon Tesso and the Hijin Kesso. But at the same time she also fights with a bow and arrow and with spiritual powers, like her mother.

Lineage Comes from the Father / int_5084d29e	comment	Young Avengers' member, Hulkling is a complicated case. He's the biological son of the deceased Kree superhero Captain Marvel and the (also deceased) Skrull Princess Anelle. Both sides of the Kree-Skrull war claim that the parent of their race is more important in determining Hulkling's role in life. Kl'rt the Super Skrull goes to desperate lengths to convince Hulkling to make a play at reuniting the Skrull Empire. A Kree officer also tries to conscript Hulkling into the Kree army by saying that because his father was Kree, he is Kree. Hulkling eventually rejects both roles since he understandably doesn't want to have any part in the insane genocidal conflict and already has a life on Earth. Power-wise, his parents are equally important: the combination of Super-Strength from his father and Shapeshifting from his mother is what helps him look like a Hulk Legacy Hero even though he's not really a Gamma mutate.

Rex has three children with three different women (and they're all biologically the children of all four of them); Rex is the legendary Master Driver and Paragon of the world, and two of his wives are the legendary Aegises, the Master Blades who control all others. But most of the plot revolves around what the children have inherited from the third wife, who is "merely" a powerful Blade who ended up queen because of a legal loophole that meant she was the only one who already had a noble title. The entire family uses the queen's surname, Rex and the other wives are prince and princesses rather than king and queens, and the kids explicitly inherited their authority from her. They did receive plenty of advantages from their other parents, it's just that all their legal advantages flow from the queen.

While unique class combinations can be passed down (namely the Avatar's Nohr Prince/Princess class and its promotions), this game's second generation is more on par with the first due to a lack of gender-exclusive skills and the children actually having their own growths that are only subtly influenced by whatever mother is chosen for each kid.

This is played up in Tekken 8, where Jin's struggle to reconcile his Mishima and Kazama bloodlines is a major plot point in the story.

Lineage Comes from the Father / int_72262aee	comment	Avatar: The Last Airbender: In general, Avatar and its successor The Legend of Korra do a lot to subvert this trope, with characters taking a lot of traits from both parents. An Inversion would be Chief Lin Beifong, who takes very strongly after her mother (and we don't even know who her father was). The Beifong family in general. Book Three reveals that Toph's younger daughter, Lin's half-sister Suyin, would go on to found an entire city, on the foundation of metalbending. To top it off, it's outright stated that it is THE most prosperous city in the Earth Kingdom, serving as beacon of progression to most of the world. All of Su's children are successful in their own rights, including her daughter Opal, a nonbender who gained airbending as a result of Harmonic Convergence. And just like Lin, Su doesn't know her father either, all but stating that the two are Heroic Bastards. In the original series, Zuko is a titch obsessed with living up to his role as 'Prince of the Fire Nation', and his place in the grand lineage of Firelords. In the episode "The Avatar and the Firelord", he's confused that the story he's told about the titular pair of friends-become-rivals doesn't reveal the promised secrets about his great-grandfather, until Iroh reveals that the great-grandfather in question was not Firelord Sozin, but Avatar Roku, on his mother's side. By the time of The Legend of Korra, Zuko's own daughter, Firelord Izumi (who's probably an only child), has inherited the throne from him. Her son, the crown prince Iroh II , shows up a handful of times throughout LOK so he will inevitably subvert this trope. Izumi was confirmed to have a daughter as well via supplemental material but she's never once seen or mentioned in the series itself. It's not explicitly clear but Izumi's daughter is probably just younger than her son and wasn't passed over for being next in line for being a girl. Aang and Katara's children play with this. Bumi is a nonbender (only becoming an airbender later on), but Kya is a waterbender like her mother and Tenzin is an airbender like his father. Tenzin also has a personally much closer to his mother, being overly serious and quick to anger.

However, many asari are also judged based on their father's species, with the lowest tier being those who were fathered by other asari. The game goes back and forth in general: Ashley Williams joined the military in part because of her grandfather's legacy though she also mentions a great-grandmother who was in the military; Commander Shepard, if the Spacer background is chosen, speaks with his/her mother, who is also a military officer; Miranda Lawson has no mother, being a genetically modified clone of her father with a few bits thrown in; and many krogan proudly claim descent from Shiagur, a female krogan warlord.

Lineage Comes from the Father / int_7d8c61a2	comment	Played with due to having more generations in between, and gender-inverted in Star Wars: The Old Republic: Satele Shan is the descendant of Bastila and Revan, but she mainly takes on the traits of her great-great-etc.-mother Bastila. She also bears Bastila's last name. Then again, we never learn Revan's (if he even had one). Besides, Bastila raised their son Vaner (note the anagram name) alone, as Revan had to leave for the Unknown Regions and never came back. Satele's secret son Theron also bears her last name, but that's partly due to his father Colonel Jace Malcom not knowing of his existence until later.

At the end of the game it's revealed Pagan has actually named Ajay his heir since Ishwari was the closest thing he had to a queen, and Min's own daughter with Ishwari, Lakshmana, was murdered as a baby by Mohan.

"If the stories are true, half of Europa..." — the catch is that he's a descendant with traceable genealogy whom other royals will recognize as such.

Then there's Agatha herself, the last living descendant (so far as we know, anyway) of a powerful family of Sparks. Her family's castle wants her to set about producing some heirs, so we know that the line can proceed matrilineally.

Her biological father not only was the Nephil slave she could be sacrificed to kill, but he was also the leader of a Nephilim army and wants her to be his successor.

Lineage Comes from the Father / int_9d47a2a2	comment	A Song of Ice and Fire: Westerosi inheritance law plays Heir Club for Men dead straight, though other societies (notably Dorne) have variations on the rule — see that trope for details. Lineage Comes From The Father is frequently played straight by characters as well, with famous ancestors and prophesied descendants almost always being men. However, this society-wide focus on the male line of descent obscures some interesting subtext hidden in the infamous family trees. Many major houses have historically married the daughters of defeated enemies, and when these defeated enemies have names like "the Warg King", we start to see hints for where families like the Starks and Targaryens get their magical abilities from — if a couple of fairytales are true, the Starks may even have the blood of the Others in their veins. Just like magic itself, which is poorly understood because the maesters don't like to keep records of it, magical bloodlines may be overlooked because nobody's been keeping track of the daughters. There is one notable aversion, however. The only reason Robert Baratheon is king at the start of the series, and his brothers Stannis and Renly are candidates for the Iron Throne, is because their paternal grandmother was a Targaryen princess (Rhaelle). The maesters justified Robert's Rebellion on this basis alone, since Aerys II wasn't technically deposed but "replaced" by another Targaryen descendant. The fact that Robert's "legitimate children", Joffrey, Myrcella and Tommen, were actually conceived by his wife Cersei out of wedlock means that they should automatically lose their birthright, because they are not part-Targaryen - so she and her family maintain that this is slander, of course. This is also the reason why Robb Stark chooses to Take a Third Option and declare himself King in the North as an independent territory, since as a vassal of the crown he wouldn't be allowed to contest the Iron Throne and would have to support either Joffrey (who had Robb's father unjustly executed), Stannis (the elder of Robert's two younger brothers; the next legitimate heir but with the smallest army) or Renly (Robert's youngest brother; with a much larger force than Stannis's but no right to the throne other than just plain wanting it). In general this is subverted with the regime in King's Landing under Joffrey, since although his surname is Baratheon it is his mother's House, the Lannisters, who are firmly in control, with his grandfather Lord Tywin as The Man Behind the Man. They don't make much secret of it either, strewing Lannister colors and banners all over the place with secondary importance given to the heraldry of Joffrey's (ostensible) father's House. Of course, as his biological father is Queen Cersei's twin brother Ser Jaime, Joffrey is pure Lannister, but even Joffrey isn't supposed to know that. Subverted tragically with Quentyn Martell. After being spurned by Daenerys Targaryen, he comes to a realization that since he is descended from a Targaryen princess (also named Daenerys), he might have inherited their control over dragons. So he enters the dragonpit to steal Rhaegal and Viserion. Bad mistake.

Despite inheriting his mother's surname, his paternal Mishima lineage is far more emphasized on; he inherited Kazuya's Devil Gene, while seemingly not inheriting Jun's spiritual qualities. His initial movelist in his debut game is also 90% Mishima Karate, although he does have a handful of Kazama moves. This is played up in Tekken 8, where Jin's struggle to reconcile his Mishima and Kazama bloodlines is a major plot point in the story. It is revealed that Jin actually does have the Kazama's purification powers, although they are buried deep within his mind, thanks to the Devil Gene. Subverted with the Devil Gene. While Jin got it from his father, in both times it was introduced to the Mishima family, they were through women: Kazumi Hachijo (Kazuya's mother), and Reina's unnamed mother. Lars Alexandersson's background as Heihachi's son takes precedence over his maternal Swedish parentage to the point that we do not even know his mother's name, even though his blond hair and blue eyes presumably came from her. Averted with Kunimitsu II as she gets most of her techniques and traits from her mother whereas what she gained from her father is barely touched upon despite him also being a fellow ninja.

Most of them are backups, in case something happens to the first three or so "sets" of sons and daughters. Even Lelouch is nowhere near in position to inherit the throne (17th in line at the beginning).

At least one of Lelouch's allies goes out of their way to emphasize that they are only helping him because of who his mother was. Even the reason that he and Nunnally are actually his father's favorite children comes from her, as their mother is the only woman Charles has ever loved.

In the Torah, a lot of lineages are (in painful detail and length) detailed—but usually only on the male line. Sometimes the mothers along the way are also mentioned, but they're never recursed onto like the men. Interestingly, despite naming lineages by the men, one's "Jewishness" was passed through the mother. Hence a Shiksa Goddess is considered to be a more serious temptation than a non-Jewish man: if a woman marries outside the faith, her children are still Jewish by birth, but if a man does it, the children are not.

Lineage Comes from the Father / int_b30ae4db	comment	Game of Thrones: Since Jon's mother is missing and her identity is totally unknown by most people (including him), a great deal more emphasis is put on Jon's Stark lineage because despite being the illegitimate son of Ned Stark, he's the kid who echoes Ned the most and looks the most like him, he spent his life in the North entrenched by its ways and customs, and is the least influenced by Catelyn's southern ways since he's her unfavourite. This is even a plot point by the end of Season 6 when the Northern lords are willing to overlook his illegitimacy and name him as the King in the North because Jon is the last surviving son of Ned Stark (as far most people know), the living embodiment of a Northern warrior, and the one who can lead them in the true war to come. However, it's revealed that he is the biological nephew of Ned Stark, since we learn he is the son of Ned's sister Lyanna Stark and Rhaegar Targaryen, and Jon's Stark lineage comes from his mother. To make things even more complicated, the Season Seven finale revealed that not only were Rhaegar and Lyanna in love, they were married, with Rhaegar even going as far as to annul his original marriage to Elia Martell to make it happen. Not only does that mean that Jon was never a bastard, his father's lineage makes him the rightful heir to the Iron Throne. That revelation has a massive effect on the events of Season Eight.

Lineage Comes from the Father / int_bfd7c6e0	comment	The drow of Drowtales are a complete inversion as Drow society is both matriarchal and matrilineal, and while some fathers do still live with the children, including Zala'ess' mate Sabbror, it seems that most noble kids have no contact with their fathers, and it's more common for fathers to live with the family in lower-class families. Noble titles especially are exclusively passed through the mother, as are inheritance. There is one known exception: the Tions Sarghress line is carried from Rosof (a male) through his son Ein, to his granddaughter Nei'kalsa. That's two generations where the male line is actually important, but this is a special case and it's likely that the Tions line will now be carried on by Nei'kalsa and her daughters. It's likewise implied that the Illhar'dro clan still officially only cares about the mother's line, but that they'll teach children who their fathers are for political purposes, since that's how the Illhar'dro do business.

After losing yet another baby boy and following his beloved wife's Death by Childbirth, he decides to go against the Heir Club for Men and makes their only surviving child Rhaenyra his heir to the throne. The Velaryons find themselves in a difficult situation with the "death" (disappearance, not that they know it) of Laenor and the death of Vaemond, now having no male heir with Velaryon blood (since the three children Rhaenyra had with "Laenor" are actually Strong bastards). Rhaenyra finds an alternative and proposes to marry Jacaerys and Lucerys to Rhaena and Baela, which Rhaenys accepts, thus also going against the trope.

Until Eclipse, it's not even thought to be possible for women to become shapeshifters, but then Leah Clearwater comes along. She and her brother, Seth, got the shapeshifting gene from their mother, while the rest of the shapeshifter pack got theirs from their fathers. Female vampires are barren, while their male counterparts are not. This means that all human-vampire hybrids shown in the series got their supernatural traits from their fathers.

He's the biological son of the deceased Kree superhero Captain Marvel and the (also deceased) Skrull Princess Anelle. Both sides of the Kree-Skrull war claim that the parent of their race is more important in determining Hulkling's role in life. Kl'rt the Super Skrull goes to desperate lengths to convince Hulkling to make a play at reuniting the Skrull Empire. A Kree officer also tries to conscript Hulkling into the Kree army by saying that because his father was Kree, he is Kree. Hulkling eventually rejects both roles since he understandably doesn't want to have any part in the insane genocidal conflict and already has a life on Earth. Power-wise, his parents are equally important: the combination of Super-Strength from his father and Shapeshifting from his mother is what helps him look like a Hulk Legacy Hero even though he's not really a Gamma mutate.

Lineage Comes from the Father / int_fb0c0a3b	comment	Voltes V: Both played straight and inverted with Prince Heinel - while his father is Prince Gohl, the Emperor's younger brother, what is really needed to be a noble in Boazanian society are horns, which he was born without. Gohl's own father tried to commit fillicide after he was born hornless, claiming that a hornless child would shame the family, but was convinced by his wife to keep the child and raise him with prosthetic horns. After becoming the Boazanian Minister of Science, Gohl fell in love with a Horned Boazanian woman named Lozaria, who knew his secret and kept it. The child that came out of this marriage was Prince Heinel, but by the time he was born Gohl was arrested after his horns were exposed as fake, and Lozaria died in childbirth. Heinel was raised by his grandparents, who refused to speak of his father and his crime. Kenichi, Daijirou and Hiyoshi are Half-Human Hybrids, born to the Boazanian Prince Gohl and the Japanese scientist Mitsuyo Go. Unfortunately, Mitsuyo dies as well.

Lineage Comes from the Father / int_fcfec4b6	comment	Played with in Noir. While Mireille Bouquet's life was undoubtedly affected by her father Laurent and his ties to The Mafia, her mother Odette arguably winds up having the biggest impact on the story because of the promise she extracted from her own killer, who was none other than Mireille's future partner Kirika, to take care of Mireille.

Lineage Comes from the Father / int_fd0b756	comment	Played with in The Hobbit as well. Thorin Oakenshield, who is a direct descendant of Durin the Deathless and the rightful King Under the Mountain, never marries and has no children of his own lineage. However, he does have a younger sister, DÃs. She has two sons, FÃli and KÃli. As Thorin's nephews and closest living relatives, FÃli and KÃli are deemed his official heirs (though as they died on the same day as their uncle, the crown actually ended up passing to their distant cousin Dain). Considering the gender imbalance of dwarves (only one-third of them are female) and how few of them are known to marry or reproduce, it's not surprising that many would have to look to female or distant relatives for blood-related heirs.

Lineage Comes from the Father / int_fe8ef766	comment	Captain America: Gender-Inverted for Steve Rogers, the original Captain America, who gets nearly all of his notable personality traits from his mother, Sarah, including his compassion, morality, Determinator status, and even his ability to give inspirational speeches. His father, Joseph on the other hand, was an abusive person that Steve actively tries not to be like, though (also like his mother) he still loves yet pities him, rather than hating him.
