Likewise, if the fireball had its point of explosion set outside of the antimagic zone, any part of the radius of flames that would be in the dead magic zone simply don't appear.Yes to both. Antimagic field's fourth paragraph talks about this.This is covered in Player's Guide to Faerun, page 172, second paragraph under the "Psionics and the Weave" header:A few specific things to remember about dead magic zones: A spellcaster or creature with spell-like or supernatural abilities (Shadow Weave user notwithstanding) immediately knows when it enters (and probably exits) a dead magic zone. They can take a move action to note the exact boundary of it.When outside one, a Weave user (as defined above) can use detect magic to "delineate the extent" of a dead magic zone.Divinations can't detect subjects within such a zone.You can't teleport into or out of a dead magic zone.A wish or miracle permanently repairs all dead magic zones within a 30 ft. radius of the caster (or that much of a larger zone).Unlike an antimagic field, a dead magic zone doesn't stop the spells, spell-like abilities, and supernatural abilities of a being with the Shadow Weave Magic feat (nor would it stop the psionic powers, psi-like abilities, and supernatural abilities of a psionic creature with the <a href="http://wizards.com/default.asp?x=dnd/pse/20021025a" target="_blank">Conjunctive Mind</a> feat), because dead magic zones are Weave-specific. There could be Shadow Weave dead (or wild) magic zones, which wouldn't affect Weave users, but so far no such things exist.</blockquote>
