You need at least 10 pts worth for Basic/College or at least 30 pts
to be able to get a Unique. I recommend less than 40 pts otherwise
you will be quite weak in other areas.

Magic - Mages

Also - Three colleges are likely to mean a weak character, as you will need at least 3 Basic spells (one from each college), which leaves less points for characteristic increases and skills. Elves have a natural potential for magic, so may develop the magic skill later in life. Other races must have it inborn. Magic tends towards hereditary stereotypes - Human mages tend to have green eyes, red hair and pale skin. Felines tend to be albino (white tigers etc...) Lizardmen tend to have smaller scales and red eyes. Halflings tend to have hairy feet. Dwarfs tend to have silver white hair and black eyes.
