Biography

After the crash landing on Installation 04, 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. Crewman Wang and 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. After much of this bickering, Keyes submits and taking Dowski's words "seriously", he has her tied up so that she can surrender and be taken prisoner once the Covenant find her [2].

Later she was captured by a squad of Sangheili and Unggoy, and while giving her captors information, she betrayed her comrades by identifying her C.O., so that she could prove she was right and be taken prisoner along with the others. The Sangheili proceeded to systematically execute everyone in the group (sans Captain Keyes). After killing Dowski with a single shot to the head with a M6D Personal Defense Weapon System, her killer remarked how primitive the projectile weapon was [3]
