So Victor's daughter would be about the same age (maybe a touch younger or a touch older) than Abbey? *shudder* that increases Victor's creep level tenfold or more.

Indeed it does.

Would his child or her mother even know who the biological donor was?

They might or might not know at first, but someone would know — and once it came out that Victor was a psychopath and a traitor, it would be hard to keep that information away from them. Anybody who knew would find it almost impossible not to broadcast the fact in their surface thoughts whenever they looked at her.

Besides, it makes for a better story if she has to figure out how to cope with it. :)

We've also seen where certain mental traits will disqualify someone from the breeding pool… Victor for example. (Although I'm trying to remember, while at work, if Victor was just excluded from breeding cells but has genetic material on file for potential use later).

Victor wasn't disqualified from breeding, just child-rearing. His semen has been collected and used to create a lot of new baby teeks, but the same killer instinct that made him such an effective operative also made him a lousy candidate for fatherhood. The Elders are keeping a close eye on those kids, watching for signs that Victor's instability might have been inherited. Worst case, those kids will be singled out early for psychic therapy. And, of course, some of them are likely to make very good soldiers when they grow up.

Come to think of it, I've been thinking about doing a story about Victor's oldest biological child, who could be in her late teens or early twenties by now (2000 CR). How will she be treated once it becomes known that her father was a monster? How will she see herself in light of this information?

Perhaps once the Collective has enough data they may take the secondary traits into account, but it seems like they are in an arms race of sorts (it just that each of their weapons take years to develop) and are trying to increase their population at an incredible rate.

For example, in the real world it is theorized that the genetic predisposition for alcoholism is a secondary trait for the genetic predisposition for extreme creativity.

Is it possible for certain psionic gifts to have as a secondary trait a predisposition towards a particular mental illness that can't be fixed without direct and highly precise genetic manipulation(like if you are a powerful enough telepath there is a very, very high chance that you will become schizophrenic or if you were a powerful empath it is a very good bet that you will develop chemical based depression)?

I think that it makes sense that this wouldn't be dealt with by the collective because of two reasons. First, there aren't enough individuals who would qualify to be able to uncover this as a trend and second, the people that would express these traits would be valuable enough for the secondary traits to be tolerated.
