Thoughts about race and class

Yonfolk have a monopoly on horses, and are the only species that can choose the Knight class.

Fungoids are the only species that can choose the Illusionist class.

Dogs are the only species that can choose to be Rangers.

Humans are the only species that can choose to be Scientists.

Race as class for everyone?

Yonfolk Knights
Fungoid Illusionists
Dog Rangers
Human Specialists
Hobgoblin Fighters
Changeling Thieves
Nephilim Barbarians
Cambion Wizard
Elf Druid
Dwarf Clerics

Humans come from a space-faring society and crashed on this planet long ago. They used genetic modification on themselves and the Dogs. Modern humans have no knowledge of this and see different human races as separate species, even though they can interbreed with each other. On this world, with its magical radiations, genetic modifications have had unintended consequences.
Human races: Any human race can be a scientist, although their racial characteristics determine what branch of science they specialize in.
Human - Engineering - devices
Cambion - Chemistry - potions
Nephilim - Physics
Elf - Biology - druid magic
Dwarf - Geology - earth magic
Changeling -
