Nepotism among the Heortlings

Hi all,
I had a player character who was interested in being cast as the daughter of the current clan chief. I was curious what sort of status would be accorded such a person. The impression I've gotten is that they tend to frown on succession via bloodline. Would the status of a daughter depend on her occupation, or would weight be given to her family tie? I know chieftainship is an elected position, and there is nothing to say the current chief cannot be forced out. Thanks for any thoughts,
Zack.
