Line 67:
* [[Catgirl]]: One of Marty's employees. A few others have shown up sporadically in the backgrounds here and there; there's also been at least one catdude.
** Goro gets turned into the hairy version during the Crax arc. [http://www.drunkduck.com/The_Dragon_Doctors/?p=530241 She's pissed.]
* [[Closer to Earth]]: [[Unfortunate Implications|It's hard not to notice]] that the two most down-to-Earth members of the team are the one who was originally female and one who's been hinted multiple times to [[TranssexualTranssexualism|have always been internally female]].
** This may have more to do with their roles than their genders, though; Mori's the leader and also a scientist, two things that require a level head, and Kili's shaman/therapist dual job also requires her to be considerate and calm.
* [[Clothing Damage]]:
Line 241:
* [[The Great Offscreen War]]: Two (possibly three) of the "[[World Sundering|Breakings]]" were cataclysmic wars. The First was a magical civil war in every country on Earth, the Second was a nuclear war.
* [[Translator Microbes]]: There's a world-wide magic spell called "The Language Barrier Breaker" in effect at all times, explain the doctors to Rina. The doctors themselves are explicitly stated as speaking a distant descendant of English, and all signs are in [[Translation Convention|English for reader conveinance]].
* [[TranssexualTranssexualism]]: One actually does show up in Mori's backstory chapter; Lem, born a woman who used magic to be a man. Unfortunately, Lem was self-medicating with cheap, toxic potions, putting his life in serious risk. (Tragically, this is [[Truth in Television]].) Other people with voluntary gender-switches have occasionally appeared, but they're not necessarily people with gender dysphoria so much as people looking for a little variety in their lives.
* [[Twenty Minutes Into the Future]]: The first half of "Last Victim" focuses on Rina discovering her latent magic powers in the 21st Century, shortly before the "First Breaking."
* [[The Unfrozen Caveman Lawyer]]: Rina, eventually. It helps that she already knew magic before emerging in a magical world, and that the culture she came from was compatible with Frontera--the characters point out that if she had been frozen during one of the Dark Ages she wouldn't have fared nearly as well.
