More along the lines of AD&D style magic resistance. A degree of resistance to all magic, beneficial or harmful alike. Healing spells fail on Nena just as often as attack magic does (if not more often), and she can't be teleported or use transfer ports that directly affect her (she's restricted to existing gates and portals).

Her resistance isn't even close to absolute, but she can easily withstand the beams from a grunt clerk's staff, passive search magic and weak barriers/defensive magics. Finding her isn't as simple as finding a "blank" spot in the magic background radiation as someone using an AMF to mask their presence; she doesn't push back magic, just resists its effects. Sufficient power or skill behind the spell will pierce her resistance.
