I completely forgot to post this here – now, suppression won't only apply to Orcs; almost all races will have the ability to learn only a certain set of schools, while suppressing the rest.
1. Elves will suppress Darkness; Light is their forte. Furthermore, considering their connection to the elements (as is the case with High Elves), they need the schools of Chaos and Summoning.
2. High Elves will suppress Light; they can learn everything else.
3. Orcs – access to all suppressions and no magic schools.
4. Mages – access to all magic schools and no suppression.
5. Humans learn Light, suppress Darkness; Chaos and Summoning are not their forte, but they will still have two magic schools in the guild, so they can learn Summoning in the guild, and thus learn Summoning, while suppressing Chaos.
6. Dwarves – learn Chaos, suppress Darkness; they also learn Light and Summoning.
7. Demons – specialists in Chaos and Darkness; they definitely suppress Light, and probably Summoning as well – creation is clearly not their thing.
8. Undead – develop Darkness and Summoning; they suppress Chaos and Light.

Here's another idea – could we make access to Specialization through one racial and two common skills, instead of one racial and three common skills? – it's almost never achieved, so what's the point of having it? – and playing up to level 30 and higher... well, maybe in single-player (two to four months of gameplay in multiplayer is just right), and there's no need to talk about imbalance – we're not speeding up the path to Specialization for just one person, but for everyone at once.
... И древний лес, роскошен и печален,
Блистает там воздушностью прогалин.
Но между кедров, полных тишиной,
Расщелина по склону ниспадала.
О, никогда под бледною луной
Так пышен не был тот уют лесной...
