Without knowing the details of the magic in your setting that you consider key to the flavour, it's difficult to know how to handle that, but it may be as simple as making each spell its own ability (similar to HQ Common Magic), or providing abilities that cover a range of similar spells (like HQ affinities or perhaps grimoires).

Just create keywords for the race in question - with or without numbers, depending on preference. For example, this might be a D&D elf:
Appreciate Beauty 13, Graceful 17, Slender Build 13, Resist Sleep Magic 5W, Resist Enchantment 17, Night Vision 17, Heightened Senses 17
To that, add a Cultural Keyword describing anything specific to that race's culture - copying literally from D&D, that would include the weapon proficiencies and automatic languages.
