- "The Quarren Isolation League is no more, and the exploitation of our people will end now. The new government of Mon Calamari will more properly reflect the will of our planet, not the will of the guilds that grew rich from our work."
- ―Pwoe-Tundra Dowmeia
Pwoe-Tundra Dowmeia was a male Quarren who served the New Republic as a Senator and later proclaimed himself Chief of State during the Yuuzhan Vong War.
Born on the planet Mon Calamari in 24 BBY, Dowmeia became a profitable businessman who eventually found that he could earn greater wealth representing the Mon Calamari system. Dowmeia used other's profits to fund his campaign, and by 25 ABY he was elected as Mon Calamari's senator to the New Republic Senate, representing a faction of more progressive Quarren.
When the Yuuzhan Vong War broke out, Dowmeia served on Borsk Fey'lya's Advisory Council. Some suspected that Fey'lya was responsible for his rise as an attempt to ward off an appointment of Gial Ackbar to the Advisory Council and as an insult to the Mon Calamari. He was also one of the anti-Jedi members of the Council. After the Fall of Coruscant and the death of Fey'lya, Dowmeia seized the opportunity and declared himself Chief of State. He also declared that Cal Omas and Triebakk had been killed on Coruscant, though Luke Skywalker briefly wondered if they hadn't been left behind. Dowmeia, however, was planning to buy time to surrender to the Yuuzhan Vong.
When Senators Omas and Triebakk resurfaced on Mon Calamari with most of the Senate, they called all surviving members to elect a new Chief of State. Fearing for his political survival, Dowmeia angrily ordered the Senate to convene on Kuat to confirm his appointment. At this point, the other Council members realized his personal intentions. The Council abandoned Dowmeia, the Senate rebuked him, and the Quarren withdrew his Senatorial status. In the subsequent election on Mon Calamari, Dowmeia received three votes, but he declared the election illegal and those participating traitors. Cal Omas was elected, and his support diminished even further. Cut off from his ever dwindling supporters, Dowmeia attempted to make a separate peace treaty with the Peace Brigade and Supreme Overlord Shimrra, but he was arrested by Jaina Solo and General Tigran Jamiro's forces when the New Republic attacked Ylesia.
