From the Hivewire3d Page on Dawn:

"What's Included & Features

• Dawn Base Figure- Native Poser Vertex Weight-Mapped Figure (Requires Poser 9 or newer)"

You are correct... this is a figure for Poser as it is today.

The most interesting thing I have noticed about her is a trick of rendering... To me she is quite ugly unrendered, but sort of pulls the ugly duckling/swan trick at render time. Very pretty when rendered, especially using IDL.
