some superpowers and/or magic could be genetic, yes? and if you're a shapeshifter, well changing forms must take a lot of shifting around your genetic makeup, since that determines how we look and our species and all that and so basically if you can focus everything just perfectly enough, you could give yourself another power because of it being genetic

love this question and the assumptions it operates on because the hypotheticals of it imply so much, each implication enriching the hypothetical even more when properly deconstructed. Short answer: sort of, yes. Long answer:

i have a ruv who he's a brick shithouse built one and he's an ice hawk, he got the wings and the ice related magic, his name is Duske

hims wife has spring/summer related powers and she can't handle the cold too well so he keeps her warm and her name is Rosaline she is still a little devil

and recently, on the 7th of february, they had twins! Edith and Zephyre, and i had this cool idea where they have markings like their parents but its like... mixed together!! like you get what i'm seeing here right

birds grow pretty fast, Edith has already figured out how to fly and get onto the ceiling, though Zephyre gets fussy whenever his sister isn't nearby and she knows this so she tries to stay in his line of sight

Zephyre can also get on the ceiling, little bro can walk on walls

Duske is a great pillow for all of his fambly and he promises to be the best father he possibly can (his parents left him behind on a mountain during a snowstorm to fend for himself) (he is going to teach them how to hunt rats and other small creatures like a good hawk)
