You got it wrong, but thats okay. See, each of the characters are a decendent of one of the 'heroes' brought through time. So, the inherence is an item (or in rare cases, magic) that any of them had. 

Question, which of the zelda games have you played?

I've played most of them or at least watched them played, so I'm familiar with all the weapons and items and such.
