Biography
In 1692, during the Salem witch trials, Dorothy was imprisoned in an underground dungeon along with others accused of witchcraft. Alongside a mute boy named David, she was rescued by the Assassins Tom Stoddard and Jennifer Querry, by promising to lead them to the Piece of Eden they sought.[1]
As Stoddard later became more irate, he threatened Dorothy, following which she fainted and Consus spoke through her, repeating a quote from Dante Alighieri's Divine Comedy; these words were the last that Stoddard's father had said to him. At that point, Querry went immediately to Dorothy's side, while Stoddard realized that the girl was what the Assassins' sought, and defended the group against oncoming attackers.[1] As Tom fought, Jennifer eventually found an exit with the help of David, and the four escaped to the swamps, yet still pursued by the crowd of fanatics sent after them by the Templars William Stoughton and Samuel Parris.[2]
Despite their efforts to escape, the Templars and the mob finally caught up to them and Stoddard was forced to leave an injured Querry and David behind to save Dorothy. Much later, Dorothy again was possessed by Consus and spoke to Charlotte de la Cruz - a woman who was reliving Tom Stoddard's memories through the Animus. Confused, Stoddard tried to question Dorothy but the girl merely blamed him for leaving Querry and David and told him that he would have a family. The pair finally made their way to the docks and was surprised to see Templars arriving. Following this, Jennifer suddenly appeared, saying that she had left David behind. Joining the two events together and believing her to be lying, Tom attacked Jennifer while Dorothy tried to defend her.[2]
They were then suddenly assaulted and captured by the Templars and their henchmen, who revealed that they had tailed Jennifer to their location.[2] From there, Tom, Jennifer and Dorothy were brought back to the underground dungeon in Salem, where Stoddard was tortured by the Templars. During this interrogation, the Templars revealed that they had also captured David and wanted Stoddard to identify which one of the children that he tried to save was the important one.
As Stoughton was threatning to torture David and as Querry was about to talk to save the boy, Consus once more took possession of Dorothy and delivered a new message to Charlotte de la Cruz, under the eyes of an amazed Stoughton. Using the diversion, the Assassins freed themselves, killed one of the Templars and tried to save the children, but using his gun Stoughton killed Querry and injured Stoddard.[3]
However, as Stoughton was talking with Parris about his plan to use the prisoners of the witch trials as guinea pigs – to attempt to duplicate Dorothy's power to new hosts – with the aim to create oracles for the Templars, Dorothy committed suicide by throwing herself into a fire started during the brawl between the Assassins and the Templars, in order to prevent the Templars from causing more innocent deaths.[3]
