Inheriting should carry a few things over IMO
Possibly role in village though I could see why not but for a game aspect its anoying
Village Membership, for example I inheritaded for a character that made a village, now im not a member of even the village... because that makes sense
and Kil List should carry over. having to re-ad every single person you talked to let alone don even remember their hearth secret is a lil obnoxious
