That would make sense why Raven would have had to leave her family, if she turns out to be a Maiden. And the Maidens arent born with the power, they receive it once the previous Maiden dies. The female in the Maidens last thought right before they die receives the power, and if its a male its given to a random female. The power doesnt really affect family's as it isnt really passed down from generation to generation. They go into this in Volume 3, and on the Maiden page...on this wiki.
