Rotating the camera with the mouse properly while it is rotated on the Z axis

Hello! I am having trouble with making a custom camera script. The problem that I have ran into is when you rotate the camera on the Z axis the camera doesn’t move with the mouse. For example, if you where to rotate 90 degrees on the Z axis and move the mouse up, the camera would move to the right. I have tried stuff with CFrame.fromMatrix, but I could not get it to work properly.
Here is my camera script:

local runService = game:GetService("RunService")
local uis = game:GetService("UserInputService")

local camera = workspace.CurrentCamera
local character = workspace:WaitForChild("character")

local dx, dy = 0, 0
local sensitivity = 0.1
local spawned = false

spawned = true
camera.CameraType = Enum.CameraType.Scriptable
uis.MouseBehavior = Enum.MouseBehavior.LockCenter

runService.RenderStepped:connect(function()
	local delta = uis:GetMouseDelta()
	dx += delta.Y * sensitivity
	dy += delta.X * sensitivity

	camera.CFrame = CFrame.new(character.Position) * CFrame.fromOrientation(-math.rad(dx), -math.rad(dy), math.rad(character.Orientation.Z))
end)

Thank you!

Edit: I need it to work for any Z angle, not just angles of 90 or 45.

What is the character variable?

Have you tried inverting it to make it go the correct way?

I would use that if I was only going to be using a few set Z angles. I should have clarified in the original post that I need it to work for any Z angle.

A normal part that the camera uses to position itself and controls the Z rotation
