The responsibilities of a delegate fell onto her shoulders after the brutal killing of her parents. This is where Dawn Montgomery comes in.ĭawn is the newly appointed delegate for her city, but while she serves as a representative for humans who negotiates with vampires, her distaste for the latter is hardly unrecognizable.
