Wayne Haas is a character in Deus Ex: Human Revolution.

Background

A former fellow SWAT team member, Haas used to be part of Detroit's Team Two during police operations. In 2020 he became friends with Adam Jensen, the squad leader. However, the two separated in 2025, as Jensen refused to comply with orders to take down a dangerous augmented fifteen-year old during an operation and promptly left the force shortly afterwards.

Wayne, who was ordered to take the shot after Adam refused and ultimately shot the boy, suffered a nervous breakdown as a result of his actions and guilt over the choice he made. His grief impacted his work efficiency, ending up with him being demoted from SWAT team commander to precinct desk sergeant. He blames Jensen for his situation, specifically, his refusal to follow a direct order.
