I always assumed they did not have the same traits as Hexenbiests since Sean, even if he is only half Zauberbiest, has never performed any spells (he went to Adalind or her mom for those sorts of things). There was that one time where Juliette was talking to him about her powers and he was frustrated at the confusion between Hexenbiests and Zauberbiests. But that I suppose could just be a gender thing, and since Zauberbiest does mean warlock perhaps they do have the same powers.

I hope Kelly is not merely human. Making him a special Grimm-Zauberbiest hybrid, perhaps the only one who can best Diana and/or Eve with powers, would raise the stakes and tension in the show. He would have a more vital role than merely as a means to keep Adalind and Nick together. They, and the others, would be more concerned with protecting him than if he were merely being the son of a Grimm. He needs a special destiny, just like Diana. They could start out wanting to keep him safe as he is Nick's son, since I imagine Black Claw will want to come after them both to eradicate the family bloodline, but then it could emerge that Kelly is special, probably starting off that he can see Wesen as a baby. The Zauberbiest powers would I think manifest later on, though they could early on enhance his Grimm powers (which would be the dominant ones I think).
