@tobi Probably not no. Characters who have magic ability descended from mythicals or Demons to be able to use it. Most descendants of mythicals don't have active magic they can use at their will, (save for perhaps breathing fire as a dragon) And mythical decendants have passive powers, A pegasus being able to fly, A unicorn's horn able to cure poison, Or a sphinx that happens to have an uncanny ability at solving problems. Which can also be chalked up to Something that is just inherant in one's brain. but they can't draw upon it as any form of personal power they can wield at will. It's just sort of there.
Demons or the more PC term "Elementals" Are a different bag entirely (and also restricted species atm) They can only weild the element they were born with and usually require lesser crystals of their element to be able to do any magic. For a fire elemental for example they would need to have a handful of special rubies on their person to use their magic and those rubies would have to be recharged by placing them in fire. Descendants of "Elementals." usually do not exibit magical ability if they have not been groomed by their parents to learn to draw from the crystals to use it. Without the magic in the crystals they can't use magic at all. And only fire elementals can draw upon fire rubies to wield that magic. An earth elemental might harm themselves badly if they tried to pull the power out of a ruby for example, where as a water elemental would destroy the ruby and lose the power inside it, just by trying to use it. There is an exception of non-magic users being able to use the Central Crystal of any given element, but it is usually only with the permission of the crystal itself. And these Central crystals are very well gaurded and [spoilers darling]. they aren't going to fall into the hands of the players here unless I'm guiding a plot that specifically hands someone one.
