There's a reason that the royal family is the one in control of the kingdom. Their bloodline is the one with the powers. Their line is associated with magic, or telepathy, or some other sort of supernatural ability. Sometimes this is the product of Superpowerful Genetics, other times it's an object passed down, or a ritual that the royals invoke that grants them their powers. Other times it is just handwaved as the Divine Right of Kings with a deity granting them their abilities (especially if it takes the form of healing magic). Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })A character unexpectedly exhibiting these powers may result in a Really Royalty Reveal. Subtrope of Royal Blood and Supernatural Elite, supertrope of Medical Monarch. Compare to Authority Equals Asskicking and The Magocracy. See also Hive Queen, God-Emperor, Vampire Monarch, and Fisher King. See also President Superhero, who usually got into power through democratic means, and Position of Literal Power, where the power is granted by the office itself. |

In Aquaman (2018), only Atlantean highborn are capable of breathing in both air and water. Common Atlanteans can only breathe water and must wear water-filled Powered Armor on the surface. This applies to the highborn of Atlantis, Xebel, and the Fishermen (the princess is shown to breathing air just fine, even though she's a fish person). The Trench can breathe air just fine too, but they're monsters and may not count. We never learn if the Brine King can breathe air, since he doesn't come up to witness the duel. Notably, all Atlanteans used to be human, but after Atlantis sank, King Atlan used his trident to modify his people to breathe underwater and handle the cold water and crushing depth. Presumably, he also made the highborn able to breathe air as well. | |

Fire Emblem: Fire Emblem: Shadow Dragon and the Blade of Light and Fire Emblem: Mystery of the Emblem have the royal family of Altea, whose relationship to the hero Anri allows them to wield the holy sword, Falchion. Female members can also use the Aum Staff that allows to resurrect a fallen character (but only once). Fire Emblem: Genealogy of the Holy War and Fire Emblem: Thracia 776 have the various noble families of Crusader lineage. Their Holy Blood gives them significantly higher natural abilities than commoners possess (which take the form of special stat boosts), but more importantly, only those of the right Crusader blood can use their family's respective holy weapon or spell, all of which are devastatingly powerful. In Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance and Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn, the imperial family of Begnion came to power due to their ability to hear the voice of the Goddess. This ability is inherited from the line's non-human ancestor. When the previous Empress tried to reveal this, she was murdered to preserve the Senate's power and credibility. At the end of Radiant Dawn, the true Empress decides that her sister has been doing just fine without their ancestor's power, and accepts the crown of a different country. In Fire Emblem Awakening, only the royal line of Ylisse (who are descendants of the above-mentioned royal family of Altea) is capable of wielding Falchion, the sword that can defeat the Fell Dragon Grima; anyone else who tries to use the sword will find it to be as dull as a butter knife. Even among royalty, though, the sword is picky about who can use it. Out of the current three royal siblings (Emmeryn, Chrom, and Lissa), only Chrom can use the sword. Although both of his children prove capable of wielding it. Maybe it's the hair? The royal families of Nohr and Hoshido in Fire Emblem Fates are both descended from two ancient dragons, giving them the ability to manipulate the terrain of the battlefield using "Dragon Veins". Despite not being blood-related to the royals, Azura can also use Dragon Veins due to being a descendant of Valla's royal family, as can her cousin the Avatar, who's also the son of Valla's usurper king, the dragon Anankos. It is technically possible to give anyone this ability (in fact, a minor plot point in Gunter's backstory is that he refused it), but completing the stage that gives one the ability is a pain in the butt. In Fire Emblem: Three Houses, only those born with Crests (proof of being part of the Heroic Lineage of the Ten Elites or Four Saints of the past) can wield the Heroes' Relics and gain access to powerful mystical abilities, and these Crest bearers are or were part of the noble families descended of those ancient heroes. Of course, it is technically possible to use a Heroes' Relic even without a Crest assuming you're willing to accept being hurt by the Relic in the best case, and being turned into a giant monstrosity in the worst, and it's a plot point in that it's possible to have a Crest granted to you through various means, such as accepting the blood of a divine dragon, having a Crest Stone implanted into your body, or being experimented on to forcibly insert the Crest. |

From the Cool Kids Table game Small Magic. In addition to giving him a destiny to save the kingdom, Janus' royal heritage also gives him access to "big magic" (as opposed to most people's "small magic"). In Josh's Super Mario RPG system he homebrewed for Here We Gooooo!, one of the classes is Princess. Like Peach, they have the natural ability to float. |

Black Panther is the ceremonial title given to the chief of the Panther Tribe in Wakanda. That nifty cowl is actually his symbol of office. Technically, though, the only truly superhuman abilities the Black Panther has come from a heart-shaped herb, but even the ability to survive imbibing it is a hereditary ability limited to the royal line. | |

In Tales of Vesperia Estelle's special power as a Child of the Full Moon is revealed to be one that comes from the royal family (and in fact is why she's one of the candidates to be the next Emperor), with the interesting twist that she also falls under Last Of Her Kind as the power has faded out over the generations. It is ultimately revealed the power came first; the Children of the Full Moon who did not die to stop the Adephagos founded the Empire to watch over and monitor blastia use to prevent such events from happening again. | |

In Attack on Titan, royal blood is needed to activate the Coordinate and use it to its full potential. Eren Yeager eventually realizes the only reason he was able to use the Coordinate's power at all was because the Titan he was in contact with at the time carried royal blood. The Beast Titan's user, Zeke Yeager, also possesses royal blood — this allows him to control Titans made using his spinal fluid, trigger their transformation by screaming, and grants said Titans the ability to function at night. | |

In The Dresden Files, it would seem being a descendant of royalty is one of the criteria for being a Knight of the Cross. Not much of a restriction due to the way heredity spread; for instance, almost everybody in Europe is descended from Charlemagne. | |

Labyrinths of Echo explored the implications. The protagonist immigrated to a very rich kingdom. Later his boss explains the reason why here only scholars know what "drought" means: crown princes of several successive dynasties were trained and initiated into a special magical tradition giving the ability to strike deals with the land itself. So they fight off endless attempts to influence them, to the point that "was a crown prince and trained accordingly" is given as a reason why a king-Arbiter managed to control his powers. In many generations of batshit insane mages almost no one tried to overthrow the monarchy or attack a specific king. Rebel mages screamed for blood of the head of a magical order allied with the crown and long after civil war's end avengers popped up once per tenday or so. Not against the King. In the land choke-full of diviners he travels incognito with two guards and a token cover-up: lots of people could track him if they wanted, but no one does. | |

Everyone in Xanth has a magical talent, but there's a legal requirement that the king must be a Magician (someone whose talent is particularly powerful). Over the course of the series, one family has kept the throne for several generations because they're descended from a character who was given the gift that all his descendants would have Magician-class talents. | |

The whole point of Exalted. The Dragon-Blooded rule the Realm because their hereditary elemental superpowers are considered a sign of being chosen by the Elemental Dragons (which may even be true). However, there are other types of Exalted, all of whom are much more powerful than the Dragon-Blooded and were personally handpicked by gods who outrank the Dragons. Who has a true mandate to rule the world? And who is best suited to defend it from the Things that want to destroy it? | |

The Meridian Royal Family in W.I.T.C.H. has great magical power passed down from mother to daughter, said magical power being on the level of a Physical God with Fisher King effects on the kingdom itself. This is probably why only Queens like Elyon are allowed to rule, while the only male member of the family (her brother Phobos) is shown to have a much lower power level that he makes up for by being a Manipulative Bastard. | |

In Warbreaker, more of an identifier than a useful power, the Idrian royal line can change the color of their hair based on their emotions. It is useful way to demonstrate their strong will and self-control, though, because it can be controlled with extreme effort. This is specifically called out in the annotations as not being genetic - only the children of the person who ends up inheriting the throne will retain the so-called "Royal Locks", and none of their siblings will pass it on. |

Marvel Cinematic Universe: While all Asgardians are strong and tough, members of the royal family possess supernatural powers that are inherited, making king Odin, his son Thor, and daughter Hela literal gods among their people (the Allfather, the God of Thunder and the Goddess of Death, respectively). His wife Frigga and adopted son Loki who are not connected to Odin by blood have no more innate powers than ordinary citizens. They must rely on their guile and knowledge of magic instead. | |

The Legend of Zelda: The daughters of Hyrule's Royal Family named Zelda inherit the powers of the Seventh Sage / Maiden, the Triforce of Wisdom, the power of the Goddess Nayru, and the spirit of the Goddess Hylia. You'd think all the power would prevent them from inevitably being the Damsel in Distress at one point in every story...Though to be fair, the one who places her in distress most often is the wielder of the Triforce of Power and is the embodiment of an eternal curse laid by Demon King Demise, Hylia's Arch-Enemy. The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild says that these powers are passed down by the women of the Royal Family, and when the queen died while Zelda was just a child and couldn't guide her daughter in awakening those powers, it proves devastating for the kingdom's defenses. | |

Ninja High School: Salusians of Royal birth are the only Salusians we see that have Super Strength. It is downplayed later when we find out that any Salusian with enough money can buy a royal rank, but super-strength is still so rare amongst them that it's statistically more likely to find them in royalty. | |

In Dune the Bene Gesserit manipulated marriages between members of certain houses for about ten thousand years in an attempt to breed a Kwisatz Haderach who could access both sides of his lineage's Genetic Memory and see the future perfectly. The end result was Paul Atreides, who used his powers to become the messiah of the Fremen of Arrakis and Emperor of the known universe. His son, the God-Emperor Leto II, inherited the same powers and spent the next four millennia selectively breeding his sister's bloodline (including repeated inbreeding with clones of Duncan Idaho) for the ability to not be viewed by prescience. | |

The Superman vs Doomsday comic: Doomsday, an invincible regenerating monstrosity that adapts to anything attacking it to the point of No-Sell, experiences his first defeat when the royal family of a planet commit mass suicide to merge into a being of Pure Energy (which Doomsday had not yet encountered, and so was powerless against it). Unfortunately, they cast his body into deep space instead of burning it., meaning they were on the receiving end of a Curb-Stomp Battle when it returned. Said royal family had developed limited Psychic Powers through centuries of inbreeding, but it was only through their sacrifice that these powers could be unleashed. | |

In The Lord of the Rings the kings of Gondor are said to have healing abilities. The truth is, possibly, a bit more mundane— as Aragorn uses forgotten herbal techniques (though they have strangely supernatural effects). His abilities to control the Dead Men of Dunharrow (a host of spectral undead) and interact with them as if they were solid, abilities granted by the oath they swore to his family, are less ambiguous. |

In Final Fantasy XV, the royalty of Lucis can use magic due to the power of the Crystal. This magic includes storing weapons and other objects and summoning them at will, warping short distances or to a thrown object, and drawing elemental energy from the environment to craft spells. They can also share these abilities with others. The female members of Tenebrae's royal family have other powers - namely being able to communicate with the gods and heal the Starscourge. Ardyn is an exception — while he can still use the same magical techniques and magic as the rest of the Lucian royal bloodline, his abilities are fueled by the concentrated Starscourge in his body instead of the Crystal. | |

In Star vs. the Forces of Evil, the women of the royal Butterfly family have access to magic, as well as the ability to turn into butterfly-like creatures upon becoming teenagers. It eventually turns out genes don't have anything to do with it, they just have a powerful Magic Wand as an Ancestral Weapon (that can actually be used by anyone) and are the only ones taught to use magic. The transformation and Facial Markings is caused by exposure to magic (Marco even used the wand once, temporarily gaining the same marks himself). In fact, the last several hundred years of queens are not related to the ones before them. | |

In the Hell's Gate series, we have a few on both sides of the inter-universal war. On the Arcanan side, the Mythalans have a Fantastic Caste System, with the magic-using Shakira on top, the supported by the military nobility of the Multhari, and oppressing the mundane Garthan peasantry. On the Sharonan side, the Calirath dynasty has ruled Ternathia, and at one time or another, most of the world, thanks to their family Talent- the ability to predict human suffering and tragedy, and thus act to prevent or minimize loss of life (on their side, when it happens in battle. Chunika s'hari, Halian.Sho Warak.) that gets stronger the closer the Calirath is to the centre of the danger. | |

Originally Wonder Woman's powers were not unique to her and all Amazons had the same power source and set, Di and Polly were just more skilled. Post-Crisis supposedly sticks with this, though only Diana and Hippolyta have the strength, magic level and items needed to put together Wondy's whole powerset. The Legend of Wonder Woman (2016) makes this explicit, as very very few Amazons are immortal in this 'verse and of the five that are four are the members of the royal family and Hippolyta has access to incredibly powerful magical items she then gifts to her daughter and heir. | |

Members of the Rakan dynasty, rulers of the ancient Golden Anaxia in Reflections of Eterna, wielded magical powers connected to the very fabric of the world of Kertiana, but the knowledge of how to use them has been lost as the dynasty almost died out. Likewise, the four ducal houses of Golden Anaxia also wielded some sort of Elemental Powers but forgotten all or almost all about them. | |

In A Song of Ice and Fire members of house Targaryen supposedly have the blood of dragons in their veins, though the only current one who is very situationally fireproof and can command the loyalty (well, kind of) of dragons is... Daenerys. She certainly is the only known person who has, frankly, lucked into being able to hatch them after almost two centuries of nothing. And, her hatchlings like being around her, at least. Melisandre claims that royal blood has power. Since this power can only truly be unlocked through blood sacrifice, this doesn't work out so well for the royals in question. Her definition of "royalty" is also very broad, including illegitimate children of royalty, children of royalty who were born before their parent took power, and relations of the King Beyond the Wall, who is self-proclaimed and whose title is not hereditary. House Stark was royalty once back when they were the Kings of the North. Though they aren't officially kings anymore, their bloodline still has power thanks to their lineage as descendants of the First Men. Wargs, Greenseers and Greendreamers have all appeared in the Stark's family tree. |

In the Old Kingdom series, the Royal Blood is one of the Five Great Charters, linking the royal family to the very make-up of magic in their land, as well as their kingdom's fate. This conferrs several advantages: members of the royal family seem to be stronger magicians than ordinary folk, and can bestow a mark on their direct vassals (such as soldiers who enforce royal law) that grants limited protection from harmful spells. Mogget also reveals that Kerrigor corrupted this royalty superpower to make himself an extraordinary threat. As a prince he gave a mark to his evil Free Magic and undead servants, creating a loophole in the Charters. | |

Their Holy Blood gives them significantly higher natural abilities than commoners possess (which take the form of special stat boosts), but more importantly, only those of the right Crusader blood can use their family's respective holy weapon or spell, all of which are devastatingly powerful. | |

Both the House of Haldane (rulers of Gwynedd) and the House of Furstan (rulers of Torenth) in the Deryni works are deeply associated with magic. The Haldanes ruled Gwynedd long before their powers were discovered; the discovery of the abilities facilitated the restoration of the dynasty to the monarchy after an interregnum of some eighty years. Subsequent Haldanes used their powers to help retain their throne in the face of their rivals' repeated efforts to retake the country. The Furstans largely train to use their powers like other Deryni, but the monarch's investiture is a magical ritual involving the tomb of the dynasty's founder, which is depicted throbbing with arcane power. Kelson Haldane and some of his courtiers visit the tomb with the young King Liam and his uncle before the ceremony, and even Liam is noted as avoiding touching the tomb. |

A bit ambiguous in Krull. Colwyn's ability to control the Glaive (let alone reach into lava to retrieve it) are probably from his status as The Chosen One, though the parallels to the Sword In The Stone are obvious. Similarly, the minor pyrokinetic powers Lessa demonstrates during the wedding and the major pyrokinetic powers that Colwyn demonstrates once the wedding is completed may be a function of the wedding ceremony itself, a power of the royal bloodlines, or some combination of the two (i.e., a result of members of the royal bloodlines becoming a mated pair). | |

The City Of Brass: The Nahid, an extinct bloodline that once ruled the djinn, have a powerful Healing Factor, Healing Hands, and the ability to understand all languages, and their blood is a deadly poison to the ifrit. When the ostensibly human Nahri heals her wounds in a djinn's presence, it's a combination I Am Who? and Cover-Blowing Superpower moment. The King of the Djinn is marked with the Seal of Suleiman, which lets them negate any djinn magic — right up to De-Powering the entire species. One rebel group delays moving against King Ghassan because they have no idea how the Seal is passed on. |

In Fire Emblem: Three Houses, only those born with Crests (proof of being part of the Heroic Lineage of the Ten Elites or Four Saints of the past) can wield the Heroes' Relics and gain access to powerful mystical abilities, and these Crest bearers are or were part of the noble families descended of those ancient heroes. Of course, it is technically possible to use a Heroes' Relic even without a Crest assuming you're willing to accept being hurt by the Relic in the best case, and being turned into a giant monstrosity in the worst, and it's a plot point in that it's possible to have a Crest granted to you through various means, such as accepting the blood of a divine dragon, having a Crest Stone implanted into your body, or being experimented on to forcibly insert the Crest. | |

In Gail Dayton's One Rose Trilogy, rulership of the nation of Adara isn't hereditary; the ruler is selected by the nobles and the officials of the state church. It's technically possible for someone without magical powers to be selected, but there's a definite bias toward those who have them, especially powers that are useful for ruling, such as being able to sense lies. | |

In Fire Emblem Awakening, only the royal line of Ylisse (who are descendants of the above-mentioned royal family of Altea) is capable of wielding Falchion, the sword that can defeat the Fell Dragon Grima; anyone else who tries to use the sword will find it to be as dull as a butter knife. Even among royalty, though, the sword is picky about who can use it. Out of the current three royal siblings (Emmeryn, Chrom, and Lissa), only Chrom can use the sword. Although both of his children prove capable of wielding it. Maybe it's the hair? | |

Dragon Ball Z: Invoked, but ultimately averted. During the Frieza Saga, Vegeta believes his Blue Blood makes him the prophecized Super Saiyan. He's proven wrong when he's unable to ascend to defeat Frieza, and it's Goku, a lower-class warrior, who becomes the first Super Saiyan in a thousand years. | |

Subverted in Long Live the Queen. It initially appears that all Lumen belong to noble bloodlines, but this is only because Lumen who aren't politically important are the subject of discrimination and hate crimes...so there are consequently less of them. The potential for magic is passed along the royal bloodline, but it doesn't belong to them alone. | |

Aldnoah.Zero: Aldnoah, the Phlebotinum that makes the Vers Empire's colonies, Kataphrakts, and Landing Castles run is directly tied to and controlled by the royal family's blood. The whole Martian Feudal Future caste system is based on Aldnoah activation privileges being genetic. | |

Sailor Moon: Being a Magical Girl is in the royal blood with everyone being princesses and passed down from mother to daughter. In regards to the members of the Royal Moon Family, they are the only ones who can fully use the Silver Crystal. | |
