Alright, I have the example of how I shaped the first round of new guild SIADS...the idea was give multiple options for the two 'real world' characters to choose from.
Welcome to the Magically-Magical Academy of Magic! M-MAM, for short!

(Adoptive) Family Name?
Albescu – family connections with the old Romanian vampire, werewolf, ghoul, and minor demon clans…medium starting learning bonus with blood, and darkness magic. Adoptive brother is a master of both, as well as your long time rival.
Banes – family connections with the old fae races…medium starting learning bonus with nature, ground and fae magic. Adoptive older sister is fae blooded, as well as a popular assistant teacher in the academy...hate’s the mains guts for not only stealing birth right, but for also burning down a sacred tree for the lols in their first year.
Carver – family connections with the oldest coven of witches…medium starting learning bonus in all aspects of magic, save for fire magic. Adoptive sisters are twins, first years at the academy, gifted with a rare natural talents in both fire and sun magic. Neutral to the main, but will be very slow to warm to anybody in general…

The academy houses students from many magical races, all students in the child to adult age, lesser talents to greater talents. The main is possibly the most powerful magic user to attend the academy, and potentially the most powerful magic user in the world's future, due to having the ability to unlimitedly learn and master all elements and classes of magic...race specific magic, one of a kind magic, all of it. Of course, they became a mega snob with a superiority complex, due to this. Bullying and mistreating other students, staking a magical claim on other people's objects...it doesn't help that they were adopted into a powerful magical nobility's family, due to this potential. No student, no teacher, not even the headmaster could really raise even just a (middle) finger against them.
Of course, their luck just about ran out. Waking up one fine, sunny morning...they found...their magic…sucks! They can't even fluff up their pillow with air magic, or clear the dirty floor with ground magic, or heat up half a cup of water with fire magic...what's going on?! Going to the headmaster to be checked for curses, and maybe look for general answers...
"Gramps, what's going on with my magic?! What curse is this, exactly?!"
The man merely chuckled, before magically hovering his wheelie chair to face the large window, "...heh heh heh...fuahahahahahahahahah~!"
"W-w-what? WHAT?!"
"This is no curse, a mere curse can be undone with strong enough counter magics! This...this is somebody's wish. From the bottom of someone's heart, they wished for this horrible person's magic to become almost nothing in power and control...!"
"Why you--! Grr...! I-isn't this basically a curse? Just fix this already!"
"Wish magic, as you must know, much of it is still unknown to humanity...and a great wish like this, it cannot be undone without the wisher's mind being changed about it. And...still...even if I could undo this...why would I?" The headmaster chuckled darkly at the desperation in the face of the once powerful and great student.
"I'm from a powerful family! My father will hear about this!"
"And what would he do...? I hear his actual flesh and blood have much magical talents, it'd be easier to train them to magical mastery than try and undo your predicament." The man smiled, tapping his chin thoughtfully, before continuing, "Hah...alas, I will give you some aid, advice, push you in the right direction...befriend all of the possible students.
Relearn what you once knew, but in a different or unorthodox style, as you still have magic running through your veins. Make pacts with the powerful magical beings and contracts with familiars, the ones you previously rejected. If you befriend everyone, you may have a chance of befriending and changing the mind of the wisher, if they aren't graduated or from outside of the academy. The djinn, fairy, and the others were quite offended by you rejecting their costless pacts...but with some grovelling, one may take pity and give you a conditional pact. At this point, though...you may have to buy a familiar, as the powerful ones who've been slighted will never offer their contract a second time, unless you really work towards their affections. I wish you luck, as you only have one year...remember? You taking this last year would be a favor to this '$#!t-hole of a dump' academy, a formality...? After this year, no one would be able to drag you back in here, kicking and screaming...right?"
It was then...that the protagonist fainted. Like a b!tc#.
Waking up in their room, is where this story starts...
