Exactly. When a sorcerer has a son, he is usually also a sorcerer...if
there's a female child, the child is powerless usually. Parallel to
that, a witch's daughter will be a witch, a son with no powers. There
was an exception or two, if I remember correctly from Industrial Magic,
where there were daughters of sorcerers who were witches...Eve, a black
witch (also half demon), had a daughter with a sorcerer (last name Nast,
can't remember first name) who is developing into a strong witch.
And this concludes today's chapter of Armstrong's supernatural genetics
101.
