what it comes down to is this:
(X - magic gene; x - non-magic gene; Y - duh)
XX + XY = XX, XY, XX, XY
Xx + XY = XX, Xx, XY, xY
XX + xY = Xx, Xx, XY, XY
xx + XY = Xx, Xx, xY, xY
xx + xY = xx, xx, xY, xY
n(XX) = 3/20 = .15
n(Xx) = 5/20 = .25
n(xx) = 2/20 = .10
n(XY) = 5/20 = .25
n(xY) = 5/20 = .25
now you get to figure out if you want your magic to be dominant or recessive or some kind of co-dominant thing (the chances of male magic users don't change... it's the odds for the girls that change)
