My theory on the semi-hereditary thing is that families might have a theme of some sort to their abilities, like the Rose family might have the rose petal effect when they use their semblanes, and perhaps the Xiao Long family have physically augmenting abilities. The personality would tie to the specifics but they would still be related to the abilities of their parents.
