| | Ensign Dowski was a member of the [[Pillar of Autumn]] flight crew. After crash landing on [[Installation 04]], she continually pesters [[Captain Keyes]] and the rest of the crew by suggesting they give up, surrender to the [[Covenant]] and be taken as prisoners. After much of this bickering, Keyes submits and taking Dowski's words seriously he has her tied up and bound so that ''she'' can surrender and be taken prisoner once the Covenant find her. Later she is taken by a squad of Covenant troops, but betrays the position of Keyes and the rest of the crew so that she can prove she was right and be taken prisoner along with the others. However the [[Elites]] betray her trust and execute the entire flight crew except for Keyes, killing Dowski with one of the [[M6D HE Pistol]]s. |

| ===Fall of Reach===
| |
| Sometime prior to the [[Fall of Reach]], she sent a picture of an [[R7 thrust coupling]] to [[Gail Purdy|Lt. Gail Purdy]], inquiring as to what they were and what their purpose was.{{Ref/Generic|Data Drops|[[Data Drop#Data Drop 6|Data Drop 6]]}}

| | [[Category: Characters|Dowski, Ellen]] |
| After the ''Autumn''{{'}}s command crew [[Landing on Installation 04|crash landed]] on [[Installation 04]] on [[Kilo Tango Victor 17]], she continually pestered [[Captain (Navy)|Captain]] [[Jacob Keyes|Keyes]] and the rest of the bridge crew by suggesting they give up, surrender to the Covenant and be taken as prisoners. At this, [[Crewman]] [[Singh]] threatened to kill her, while Captain Keyes was worried that her talk would stir up similar thoughts in [[Corporal]] [[Wilkins]] and his [[UNSC Marine Corps|Marine]] fire team. After much of her bickering, Keyes finally submitted and, taking Dowski's words "seriously", he had her tied up so that ''she'' could surrender and be taken prisoner once the Covenant found her.{{Ref/Reuse|HTFC3}}

| Later, she was captured by a squad of [[Sangheili]] and [[Unggoy]], and while giving her captors information, she [[Treason|betrayed]] her comrades by identifying her CO, 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, except Captain Keyes. Dowski became shocked at this and was about to protest when the Sangheili shot her in the forehead with an [[M6D magnum]].{{Ref/Reuse|HTFC3}}
