Yes, magical barriers would indeed explain fading magic. So pesky!
and woo, thread on mah birfday. :3
Moar!
Also; Damn you for beating me to this thread by a whopping 2 minutes.
And now we know who the ditz (or muscle, anyway) in the group is.
The red-head is obviously the magic expert and all-around smart gal. (Creepy magical girl?)
We still have no idea what their names are. Did we miss the introductions?
Makes me wonder what did the lizard girl try to do - brake through the box with her bare fists? From her scream and Dan's expression in the last panel I get a feeling that she broke a few fingers in the process..

She only has a few fingers to begin with, so hopefully she didn't mess them up too bad!
*Charles doesn't get it* But I punch brick walls at full force all the time and don't break anything... really it's just a matter of training to condition the tissues... and as well it depends on the angle and pull-back in the strike to properly direct the brunt of the force of impact slightly in front of the hand, thus avoiding the crushing effect altogether..
*Charline sighs* It's comedy, you idiot. :rolleyes
*Charles ohhhhhs* :B
Heh. Yeah, that's gotta hurt. ;-]
great minds thin alike, I knew the topi would be called by this title x3

First she breaks some fingers, now you want her to break her toes too?? This is
no way to treat a lady! D:<
...
I vote for using either Dan's or her head as a battering ram. >:3
At first, for some reason I thought she was trying to phase through the wall. It was a lot more humorous that way.
Heh.

Phase through it? Nah! She was obviously preparing to kick that stupid wall's ass and then kick the stupid asses of those who put her in that stupid box (and then probably chew some bubblegum) >:]! But the wall proved to be a better fighter, apparently...

I'd say this idea only almost has merit! I mean while sure it's true that few things are as hard as Dan's head, it's been proven that his abductors use things that are even harder, such as the club with which he was struck!
Of course, can always be done anyway. For science! >:)

That club was obviously made of superstrongium (a cheap variation of artificial adamantium). I doubt that the abductors had enough of that material to make a huge box of it, or they would not need that magical barrier.
But I agree - it has to be done anyway.
For science!! >:O
Now the question I have, is it only the walls that are shielded? Or did they make the usual villian mistake and not bother with the floors and ceiling.
The only problem with this is which girl to like most? Caring canine? Creepy bunny? Or Take-charge lizard? Hmm...
More wonderful eye work in this one. I wonder if the girls are creatures, due to Bunny's last comment.
Yeah... I'm for the Bunny

As I have said before, I am torn between the bunny girl and the lizard girl. The former has lovely eyes, and I like her calm and collected demeanour, while the latter demonstrates a strong and passionate character and is beautiful (especially her hair). As for the canine girl, she is boring and plain compared to the other two. Decisions, decisions...
Not to nag at details, but didn't the lizard girl have a necklace in the previous strip?
Now, this is interesting. They can 'negate spells and creature-like abilities.' So, what is a creature-like ability? Would a Phoenix's flaming hair go out? Would Matilda still be able to breath fire? What about things like increased strength? So many questions!

I looked at the comic...the lizard girl at her fist clenched in the second frame. So I think that increased strength would be included in the things nullified if she was trying to punch a big hole in the wall.
Of course that's just my opinion...
Edit> by the way, Amber really does draw some beautiful and sexy females. (that was a compliment, folks.)

Amber from Damaris computer: You know...I did notice that around
5:30AM when I was colouring I missed it...and I sort of figured someone was going to point it out and nitpick it...but I was too goddamn tired to really care at that point.
So I am going to BS a reason and say she took it off for personal reasons unknown to us all.
She wrapped it up in her fist to help her hit harder? :mowcookie

probably creature-like abilities are DMFA's equivalent to D&D's Spell-Like abilities. Stuff you can do that is magical in nature, but isn't spells gained through the standard method, you just have them innately.

Anyone notice Dan looks like he has a beard in the first panel? Probably the shadows or my computer monitor messing with me.
Hmm. Innn-der-est-ink. If the bunny's magic was just fading earlier, I wonder if it's completely gone now, or if she still has a chance to bust the wall.
Also, the lizard has cool hair. :P

The answer to all questions concerning plot holes!
Two things that I'm amazed:
1. Ow well Amber can define her characters in just two strips
2. How much the res of us can speculate those characters after just two strips.
It take two to tango!!

At anyrate this flash back is starting to look very nice, for more then one reason. I see three currently |D
What's that bunny girl's wearing on her left hand ring finger? It looks like a ring, but the finger's a different colour than the rest of her hand - is it some sort of fashionable one-finger glove?

I like the bunny. If it wasn't for the fact that amber said there's no more vamp's, and that it's daylight, I'd say she's a vampire. Oh well, Strange eyed bunner girl FTW!
By now I'm sure everyone has figured out Dan was abducted because he looked like a girl. so I can't exactly throw it out as wild speculation.
Bonk! XD Well like I could say..Watch your head!

oh of corse it all makes sence now
dark pegses is doing his whole reserect a god thing for the first time but he needs girls to put into leather bikinis and hang over his lava pool. so he gets his minions to go to the nearest inn to grab a bunch of girls (which explains http://www.missmab.com/Comics/Vol_878.php (http://www.missmab.com/Comics/Vol_878.php)) dan looks like a girl so they grab him along with the other three. so by coicidencce or on perpose one of them is a prinsses and one is a fey (a guessing bunny-girl is the fey (because she's mystical and enigmatic) and lizard girl is the prinsses (because she sounds just a little bit bratty (and has the best hairstyle )))

its because they both have there eyes open completly and both have green eyes and re looking at each other in a ober-cute way ;)
Heh, judging by the reactions of the lizard girl's friends, she must do that kind of thing all the time.

It's. . .paint! Or some sort of marking. It's also shows up on her other middle finger, and in #882. In fact, there's a swirl of the same color on her shoulder in #882.

She's going to look bloody awesome when we get a good close-up, isn't she?

I have to agree with you, sir, especially on that first point.
You know, it's times like this when my collection of macro images regarding the "YOU ARE DOING IT WRONG" meme would come in handy, but it'd just serve as further evidence that I've sold my soul to the Internet. Instead, I'll just wait for someone to make a meme out of the last panel.

I'm afraid the last panel of this strip won't work for that meme. I have tried to make it and II did not succeed. :< I've made a couple of "You're doing it wrong" memes with other DMFA strips, though. I would have posted them in the meme thread, but it appears to be abandoned.
I vote the bunny is a werebunny amazon who chose a magic-user career route, and we'll see her in her human and feral forms before the story arc is over.
She also appeals to me. I don't know why. Kinda like Nagato from "Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya" and (less so) Rei from Evangelion.
Do I have a thing for creepy spellcaster girls or something?

Seeing the previous strip, I think the cabbit (yes, unless amber confirms it, I refuse to accept the theory she's a bunny) just has different fur color in her middle finger, as it appears to be the same color of the markings on her back

Also, I wonder if Dan's coat still works. Its Magically enhanced to cancel spells, right? So does it cancel canceling spells?
And I don't like the Lizard girl (Have we ever seen her have legs? Somehow I could see her with a naga-type body). She's just...rarw.
Actually, Wildy didn't say it cancels spells, she said it protects from magic. That implies it works primarily against offensive spells, not all spells.
