ROM: Magic As Skill Or Life State
The options are: 1. Magic as a skill that everyone including vampires and mermaids can learn 2. Magic as an exclusive ability of a new life state separate from humans, vampires, etc.

Ideally, honestly, more than one skill. Alchemy, Tranfiguration, Potions, etc. With a couple skills being standard work-your-way-up skills, and at least one working like fame with a skill tree.
