Biography
After the bridge crew of UNSC Pillar of Autumn abandoned ship on a lifeboat and landed on Installation 04, Dowski displayed increasingly pessimistic behavior as the day wore on. She continually pestered Captain Keyes and the rest of the bridge crew by suggesting they give up, surrender to the Covenant and be taken as prisoners. After increasingly-vocal complaints grew into hints of mutiny, crewman Singh threatened to kill her, while Captain Keyes was worried that her talk would stir up similar thoughts in Corporal Wilkins and his marine fire team. Keyes finally submitted and, taking Dowski's words "seriously," he had her tied up and gagged so that she could surrender and be taken prisoner once the Covenant found her.[2]
Later, she was captured by a squad of Sangheili and Unggoy, and was taken aboard a Covenant dropship entirely unharmed. As the dropship flew in over the remaining bridge crew and Marines, Dowski addressed Keyes over the loudspeaker, saying there was nowhere left to run. The dropship then landed and Dowski got out, smugly telling Keyes, "You see, sir? It was just like I said it would be." A Sangheili demanded to know which one was the commander in the group, and Dowski pointed at Keyes and said "Him!" The Sangheili proceeded to systematically execute everyone else in the group, except Captain Keyes. Dowski was shocked and began to tell Keyes she had no idea this would happen before the Sangheili shot her with an M6D.[3]
