I don't think we can say that she will be magical because she's a product of true love. While that was indicated to be the reason Emma was the Savior in Season One, we've since seen that the Savior is more of a lucky title. The various products of true love we've seen have had no indication of magic (Lucy is the most notable one, since she's the oldest) while other characters who aren't products of true love do have powerful magic (Alice, being the most similar to the Savior, is the most notable).

That said, it wouldn't surprise me if Hope were eventually the hero of a new story. Importance tends to be genetic (think the Skywalker stories of Star Wars). She probably has the potential for magic due to her bloodline and will likely be trained in it.

The way darkness works in Once is pretty unclear, so I'm not sure what to say about whether she will be pure light, pure dark, or a mix thereof. Isn't Regina our local mix thereof?
