I also think that the Royals are neither Wesen nor Grimm, nor they have the Grimm sight.

As for them being another form of parahumans, I think they must have some form of power because:

1- They have genes powerful enough to mingle with Hexenbiest genes, creating what I assume to be a very rare hybrid in Sean Renard.

2- Kenneth was insanely overpowered, despite not having a drop of Wesen or Grimm in him, he managed to kill a Grimm, overpower a Skalenzahne and a half-Zauberbiest, who was also half-Royal, with relative ease.

In my opinion the "quirk" of the Royals is simply to be "extraordinary".

Some are strong, i.e. Kenneth

Some are cunning i.e. Sean & Eric

Some are skilled negotiators and able administratives, good at mantaining the power leveled, i.e. Viktor (The Royals are never shown having issues that would drive them to hunt down the Portland contingent ever again after Viktor takes over, Meisner appearently abandons the Laufer, and Tavitian is never heard of again, and, assuming that the Verrat Ahnenerbe works for all the Royal Families; I, for one, think it safe to assume that after Viktor became King, he focused on profiting from the other venues the Royals possess (warfare, commerce, etc.), as seen in the website for GQR industries in one of the earlier seasons.)

In definitive; Royals are not Wesen, but that does not mean that Renard isn't some form of Vorherrscher co-dominance: cf. [http://(https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dominance_(genetics)#Co-dominance) In humans, A and B blood-type parents can have an AB child. ]

On the other hand, a Kehrseite-Genträger is probably a human with recessive Wesen genes. Since Wesen tend to marry each other and very rarely Kehrseiten, it must be more uncommon for humans to have any Wesen ancestors that one would normally imagine. Cf. wizards in Harry Potter, who are said to all have some muggle blood in them by this point in history. Contrary to this, Wesen have been careful, historically, to not mingle with Kehrseiten, probably impelled by paraofficial organizations such as the Wesenrein.

Take for instance a relationship such as Hank/Zuri, if they had a child, and said child was like Hank, that is to say, a Kehrseite, and then had a child with a Wesen, say one of the Monroe-Rosalee triplets, there'd be a nearly 100% chance for the kid to be born Wesen. I say "nearly", because, of course, there must be exception to these things, such as Renard, there always is.
