"Not unless they keep mixing with different species for a few generations. Or with certain specific races, such as the equines— that is, horsefolk and donkeys. Their offspring, be they mules or hinnys, are not able to reproduce. Lionfolk and tigerfolk can have ligers and tigons, which while not infertile have difficulties in child-bearing. But I wouldn't be too worried, such things are rare even amongst beastfolk. You'd have to go out of your way to have a situation like that."
"So it's not like there's a guy out there with all beastfolk genes in him."
"Very likely not. And it is interesting that you say that, for I believe there was once an experiment in another continent where different beastfolk were encouraged to intermix. The theory was that eventually you'd have an ideal creature if you had enough hybrids. Of course, as many in the scientific community know, that's not what happened. Rather, we all witnessed something called a 'hybrid breakdown'. Which is just another way of saying none were able to have any children anymore because they were all hybrids, leading to the collapse of the colony. I believe it is now called the Blackdesert Ruins." He further described it as a place as an inhospitable land where corruption was rampant. "I could go on about this topic, but I imagine you still have other inquiries, don't you?"
"Yeah," You tried to process everything he just said, "Would the same idea apply to kitsune? About hybrids, I mean."
"I couldn't say. Kitsune tend to not mix outside their species, as such we don't have much knowledge about that. But if the leading theories are anything to go by, you should have an easier time taking care of your kits than an average beastfolk offspring. Kitsune are considered to be more of a demi-human subgroup than a pure beastfolk, at least if certain scientific theories hold any water." He said. Contrary to these ideas, you recall Ayane, Hisashi, Eisho, and a couple of his wives mention that kitsune considered themselves more related to beastfolk than humans.
"Right. Well, what are the chances of my children getting Lunacy Savantae?"
"If one parent is a Savant, then my personal estimate would be that there is a 25% chance it's passed down. Having both parents be Savants would easily bump that number higher, depending on the amount of relatives that are also Savants. Of course, we don't truly know too much about Lunacy Savantae, even in today's modern day and age."
"And what if Herta-"
"Yes, if your wife —Herta— is truly related to the Goddess of Artifice, or divinity in general, in some way, then all of your children with her will be Savants." He said, slightly annoyed, but still completely sincere.
"What about my children that aren't Savants? Would they be affected?"
"They'd have increased creativity, a better affinity with tools and machines, have higher intelligence, as well as the increased energy. They will be definite bundles of stamina, far more than what I described earlier.
