DMFA has Loads and Loads of Characters, so it was only natural there'd be a character page here for it sooner or later.

Look out for spoilers, particularly if you go to the cast pages proper.


Main Characters[]

Daniel Ti'Fiona[]

Dan

Dan

Daniel Ti'Fiona is the brother of Alexsi and a retired adventurer. More or less the star of the comic.


Mab[]

Mab

Mab

A faerie whose favored/default form is a purple-furred cat, Mab lives in a pocket dimension in Dan's closet and is an integral part of the main cast.


  • Barefoot Cartoon Animal: Mab sticks out because the other anthros are either qaudrapedal, wears shoes, or wear some version of shoes.
  • Berserk Button: Do not pull on her antenna.
  • The Chessmaster:She's got some of kind of scheme running behind the scenes and, beyond keeping her mortal friends alive, we don't know what her goals entail.
  • Cloudcuckoolander: Though, compared to some fae, Mab comes off as pretty well-grounded.
  • The Ditz: She acts like this.
  • Does Not Like Shoes: Provided, most of the characters don't wear shoes but Mab especially won't.
  • Hot Mom: Her daughter Rose, though in a subversion Mab wasn't even expecting to be a mom when she got her
  • Obfuscating Stupidity Mab is actually A LOT smarter than what she lets on. See, the fae are omniscient and nearly omnipotent but, otherwise, puts limits on themselves when they're interacting with a universe or a specific one. In the "normal world" of this series, she's a cloudcuckoolander but when she leaves this "normal world", her omniscience comes back.[1]
  • Older Than They Look: Way older.
    • Really Seven Hundred Years Old: We don't know how old she is but we do know that that she's older than the rest of the cast and, related to that, she's probably older than Fa'lina (who is around 9,288 years old). Verging on Vague Age, her true age is unknown but we do know she's old enough to be someone's ancestor but, in one comic, she was shown (as a child) interacting with Dan when he was little. What really skews anything to do with this is that "fae time" is different in "normal world" time.

Supporting Characters[]

Jyrras[]

Jyrras with Deebs

Jyrras with Deebs

A half kangaroo rat/kangaroo, short, shy, cute Jyrras is also a scientific genius with a sizable fortune due to his inventions and the influence of his mother, a highly respected lawyer.


  • Adorkable
  • All Girls Want Bad Boys: Zigzagged, and not just because Jyrras is a gay/bisexual/bisexual in denial of his hetero side boy, either. The characters he's been canonically established as attracted to first of all are Dan; a goofy, goodhearted, retired adventurer, and Lorenda; a sweet-natured, easy-going nice girl. But Dan turns out to be a major Badass from his adventuring days and then gets even more powerful when he turns out to be an Incubus, while Lorenda is a half-demon who, while she normally avoids it, has no qualms about eating people alive. And then he falls for the seemingly "bad boy" Incubus Abel — a Deadpan Snarker Jerkass... who turns out to be a Jerk with a Heart of Gold with a Dark and Troubled Past that makes him The Woobie or at least a Jerkass Woobie.
  • Annoying Younger Sibling: Inverted. Jyrras was the youngest of seven, the only boy, and the only one to be a kangaroo rat like their dad instead of a kangaroo like their mom. The result is that they persistently treat him like a baby and goodheartedly pick on him for being "so adorable", and with their superior size and strength, he can't do anything to stop them pestering him.
  • Bi the Way:Subverted. Shortly after we first find out he's in love with Daniel, Abel then reveals he also has a crush on Lorenda. Then Lorenda reveals she doesn't find him attractive and even thought he was gay before his confession of feelings for her. He then declares that he must truly be gay, he was obviously just trying to pretend he's not by subconciously confusing his feelings of friendship for her with romantic attraction to her.
    • Though Abel may think that Jyrras actually is bi, he's just leapt to the conclusion he's purely gay after Lorenda rejected him.
  • Gender Equals Breed: He's a kangaroo rat like his dad, while his sisters are all kangaroos like their mom.
  • Incompatible Orientation: First with Dan and then with Abel.
  • Lethal Chef: As of strip 1314.
  • Mad Scientist: While it has yet to be directly related to the series, Jyrras is a very skilled inventor who has even accidentally created life. Twice, in fact.
  • Shrinking Violet: Jyrras is the shyest character in the series.
  • |Transparent Closet: As lampshaded by Lorenda in comic 829, Jyrras is a pretty big walking collection of stereotypical "gay markers" and his sisters were certain he was gay from about the time he first became friends with Dan.
  • Truly Single Parent: Created Deathbringer and M.A.C.E. and calls them "his daughters", who in turn call him "their father."
  • The Woobie: To some fans at least.

A cat-based Succubus on a quest to find and kill Dan for killing her friend, Destania, she gave it up after falling in love with Merlitz. Extremely proud of being a Succubus, the relationship broke up during the SAIA arc and she went on to become a teacher at the Academy.


  • Horny Devils: She's a Succubus.
  • Put on a Bus: The character was borrowed from a Furcadia player who was a friend of the author's, as was Merlitz. When the players broke up and left Furcadia, the author broke the characters up and gently removed them from the comic. Aary still appears in SAIA from time to time, though.
  • Tsundere:For Abel. Yes, really.

Aliyka[]

The main three male rats and Photophie (the green-haired one), a female.

A group of about four rats who live in the basement at Lost Lake. They became Dan's roomies when he was sent to live down there, but he and they get on well enough.


  • Basement Dweller: Well, yes, they do live in a basement. No, they don't tend to leave the basement, matter-of-fact, their friendship with Dan brings them the benefits of learning about the outside world without having to leave said basement.
  • Chuck Cunningham Syndrome: Though they were bit characters, they did suddenly, for awhile, disappear from the comic and their castpage was removed from the site without any explanation. In a later comic, they came back (for a joke) and, apparently, they do some construction for Alexsi. [3]
  • Heavy Sleeper: As noted on their cast page, the dark furred rat is never seen awake.
  • Noodle Incident: Their past. We do know that they've lived their entire lives in the Lost Lake Inn's basement.
  • No Name Given: The three males. The girl rat is named "Photophie"

Dark Pegasus[]

Dark Pegasus

Dark Pegasus

Kria Soulstealer's brother (real name "Aliph Soulstealer"), creator of the whole school of necromancy, but disillusioned with that sort of magic, to the point he now specialises in creating "Death Guards", which are golems fueled by the harvested souls of the undead.


  • Back From the Dead: Multiple times!
  • Came Back Wrong: Kria notes that he seems to get more and more... off... each time he is brought back to life.
  • Contractual Genre Blindness: Prefers the "classic" ways of villaining. This hasn't exactly helped him when facing Dan.
  • Dangerously Genre Savvy: However, his dislike for the undead has lead him to cast a killing spell in mid-sentence. His mid-sentence.
  • Evil Overlord
  • Faux Affably Evil: He will kill people mid-sentence and smile at you politely while he rips your heart from your chest (which he almost succeeded to do to Dan)
  • Old Shame: He hates being reminded that he originated the Undead.

Devin[]

Devin (in his current state)

Devin (in his current state)

An undead cat who Kria Soulstealer used to keep as a slave, when the Undead spontaneously "awoke" forty years ago, she took him in as a kind of adopted son. Secretly, his original self was an associate of Abel's, murdered shortly before he discovered who his father was.


  • Dark and Troubled Past: To go a bit into some details, , His dad left him after he was born, which sent his mother over the Despair Event Horizon, where she looked out of the window and waited for his dad to return before passing away (adding insult to injury, it's implied his mother killed any siblings he would have had and she blamed him for his dad leaving on her deathbed), so he was sent to live with his aunt and uncle, who didn't raise him in the most loving way.
  • Came Back Wrong: Devin Soulstealer might even have a different "Soul" than the one Abel knew.
  • Jerk with a Heart of Gold: As seen in Abel's Story.

Kria Soulstealer, notorious Demon-Mare, mass murderer, rampant cannibal, spreader of chaos. Also Lorenda's mother and not without her good side.


Matilda[]

Matilda

Matilda

A tauric three-eyed cobra-like Mythos that Dan meets while accompanying Mab to buy a new home, she is quite attracted to Dan, and reassures him that it's a natural feeling, as her kind are immune to Charm Person effects.


Merlitz[]

Merlitz using his fire powers

Merlitz using his fire powers

An ex-adventurer who was let go from his group upon claiming to have met a dimension-travelling human, a skilled pyromancer. Had a short-lived romance with Aaryana, but broke things off with her and then left to become an adventurer again after the SAIA arc.


  • Only Sane Man (early on)
  • Playing with Fire: He's a fire mage.
  • Put on a Bus: The character was borrowed from a Furcadia player who was a friend of the author's, as was Aaryana. When the players broke up and left Furcadia, the author broke the characters up and gently removed them from the comic. The last we see of him is that he, apparently, was Killed Offscreen

Regina[]

Regina

A Demon of the Soulstealer family, though apparently neither directly related to Kria or Dark Pegasus. Self-centered and vapid even by Demon standards. Dan and Wildy have a history with her; they've vowed to kill her.


Real Worlders[]

Amber[]

The Author Avatar of, well, Amber. Usually has to be persuaded to continue to write the comic.


Fluffy[]

Fluffy

A replacement of a former real-life character (A TMNT doll). Was originally a character in an earlier comic that Amber did as a school project. Mainly acts as a foil with Amber, motivating them through various means.



Those Without an Official Cast Page[]

Aniz[]

Abel's father, who tricked Abel's mother into bearing his child by murdering her husband and assuming his form.


  • Complete Monster: To the same degree as the average 'cubi, at least, but he has the distinction of getting all of his recent acts actually shown on-panel. Apparently, that makes a lot of difference.
  • Moral Event Horizon: Let's see… puts Abel's mother through years of emotional trauma, kills Abel's best friend when she tries to stop him, and finally kidnaps Abel and forces him into SAIA under pain of death, driving him to a severe Heroic BSOD. And that's just the stuff he's done onscreen.
  • Red Eyes, Take Warning
  • Villainous Breakdown: He seems smug, calmly sadistic and generally in-control at first... which abruptly collapses when Hennya seriously injures him and things stop going as planned.

Azlan[]

A faerie whose favorite form is that of a fox, he wears a patch to give himself more angelic wings and hide his antennae because he thinks they make him look girly.


'Cubi Clan Leaders[]

Fa'Lina

Fa'Lina

Fa'Lina[]

Headmistress of SAIA, she started the academy during the Dragon-Cubi War to protect young cubi and help them to develop and learn.

Cindy (Right) holding Abel

Cindy (Right) holding Abel.

Cindy[]

A friend of Abel's before the latter moved to Zinvth


  • Break the Cutie: Implied, as Abel mentioned her letters "overtime got more sad". As we and Abel can tell, she never got better.
  • Cool Big Sis: It's implied that she had this sort of relationship with Abel, complete with a playful "Heya Runt!" when he was kid.
  • Driven to Suicide: Some time after the Rewanz family moved away to Zivnth, she ended her life by jumping off a cliff (apparently).
  • Eyes Do Not Belong There: She has a third eye on her left palm. According to Aniz (disguised as Cid Rewanz), this came from her father, Maverick, playing around with magic.
  • It's Always Sunny at Funerals: After her funeral, Abel reflected on how sunny it was, thinking, "Guess I should be glad it didn't rain."
  • Only Friend: To Abel, during his time before moving to Zinvth, as she was only one who didn't pick on or discriminate against him.
  • Only Known By Her Nickname: In the few times she was mentioned, she 's been called "Cynthia" twice.
  • Plot-Triggering Death: A small extent since some of the trouble for Abel started after he returned to their hometown for her funeral.
  • Watching the Sunset: Her last letter to Abel mentioned how much time she spent watching the ocean on a cliffside. In that scene, she is seen watching the sunset

May Rewanz[]

May holding a baby Abel

May holding a baby Abel.

Abel's mother, who we see in his backstory


  • Good Parents: From what we see about her, she was a very loving and devoted mother to her son, even playing with him when no one else would. Moving to Zinvth was her idea, especially since the school principal, Sally, refused to enroll Abel into the school.
  • Nice Girl: She could have extended her life with the money she had but she used it to help others.
  • Really Gets Around: It's implied she was this in youth, where she called herself "foolish and selfish". When Abel was born, there came rumors that she slept around with a Creature, while her husband was adventuring. The truth of the latter is more complicated, as Aniz disguised himself as her dead husband, Cid.
  • Strong Family Resemblance: She's where Abel gets his spotted appearance from.

  1. Comic #1346
  2. Quoar's Page. While we don't know exactly if Abel is a part of this clan, we do know that this clan tends to have eyes that're different colors.
  3. #2149: It is still in the room.
  4. However, this is subverted in that, what actually happened was that her brother, Heshi, killed himself and she stabbed his carcass out of anger
