Dawn is a character who has been present since the beginning of Johnisdead. First appearing as a player during the YSHDT Arc, Dawn's status as a canon character was confirmed during the Our Horizon Arc, where it was revealed he was The Dawn - a high ranking member of a cult known as The Sun Children. Following this reveal, players helped Dawn escape a machine that had trapped his soul within the "Emerald Prison" Janus Room, after which he began a long journey to Florida to retrieve an old holy book that he had apparently left in Tyler's home. Once he arrived, Dawn was attacked by BUP, but he managed to fend him off and retrieve his book. Following this, Dawn was seemingly represented by a Rook Chess piece.

Story

Dawn was born in Jacksonville, Florida sometime in the 1990's. He cannot remember much about his time in Florida, claiming that he was "taken away" at the age of three. Later in life he joined the Within Hubris Forums, becoming a long-standing member. In 2011, Dawn became friends with Tyler, often sharing art projects, talking philosophy, and played games. At some point, Dawn was inducted into The Sun Children - a cult that worships Helios. Though not much is known about him, Dawn's father was also a high ranking member of the cult, holding the esteemed title of The Dawn. At some point, Dawn's father was killed due to "Hubris". At this point, the rank of "The Dawn" was passed down to Dawn himself.

In 2015, Dawn joined the Internet Detectives in 2015 during the YSHDT Arc. Dawn was seemingly a normal player in the ARG up until March 7th, 2015, when Helper referred to him as a "Demon". Helper claimed this was because Dawn "seeks to create what the players did not", likely referring to how he often joked about wishing to kill the players' Link, Doug. On March 21st, the current GM of the ARG, The Man, asked to speak to Dawn in private. A few days later on March 25th, The Man confirmed that Dawn had "traded away" his Ocarina powers for some unknown reason.
