I know exactly what you are looking for...
Master of Magic.
It's an extremely old game (DOS era, so you'll need DOSbox to get it to run), but it's made by the same people who made Civilization, Colonization, and Master of Orion II. In fact, it's a much more detailed version of Colonization with Magic: The Gathering thrown into the fray. There are several races you can pick, from Humans, to Elves, to Dark Elves, to Klackons (yes, the insect race from MoOII), to Trolls and more, as well as mixing and matching the five basic magic types (black, white, red, green, blue... ala Magic: The Gathering).

Find a copy (which is next to impossible using legit methods), and we'll never see you again. I know I played it to death for several years.

EDIT: Doh! drone got to it first
