I've met similar instances, but they seem to be rare. Although that might not be correct, considering how relatively young most of Italia's Stand users are. Most of them haven't yet had the chance to have children.
[Fugo's mind first jumps to Trish and Diavolo, who is an example of a child of a Stand user--and someone whose Stand was awoken by means other than the arrow.]
I wonder how common it is for the children of Stand users to have the potential. Is it something that can be handed down to every child, or specific ones? Are there Stand users with children who don't have the potential? Is the potential something that can skip generations? How young can someone be for their Stand to awaken?
It's a shame there's so little data. There's just not enough to make meaningful statistic conclusions.
[Ah, the arrow.]
I'm afraid I don't know much about its origins, just some of its properties. But here is what I do know:
1) Being stabbed, cut, or scratched by the arrow has one of three effects. Effect A: If the subject has the potential, their Stand will be awakened. Effect B: If the subject does not have the potential, they will die. Effect C: If the subject already has a Stand, their Stand will "evolve".
2) If one survives being stabbed with the arrow the wound, no matter how fatal, will be healed once the arrow is removed. No scar will be left behind.
3) The part of the arrow that has these properties is the arrowhead itself. The shaft is completely safe to handle.
4) They are very, very, very old. Few of them remain in the world.
