Lady Dawnie
Every Dawn of the Dead event is narrated through Lady Dawnie — the lore character named after Admin Dawn, portrayed as the undead queen who controls the horde.
She provides buildup flavour before the event, directional commentary per wave ("Wave 2 from the North — Dawnie doubles down. Still alive? Interesting."), and a dismissive sign-off when it ends.
