==Biography==
'''Wayne Haas''' is a character in ''[[Deus Ex: Human Revolution]]''.
 
 
A former 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 [[Timeline#2020s|2025]], as Jensen refused to comply with orders to take down a dangerous augmented fifteen-year old during an [[Mexicantown Massacre|operation]] and left the force shortly afterwards.
   
 
Haas, who was ordered to take the shot after Jensen refused, was promoted to commander of the team after Jensen's departure. Unfortunately, he suffered a nervous breakdown as a result of his actions and guilt over the choice he made. His grief impacted his work efficiency, and due to eventually becoming hooked on [[painkillers]], Haas ended up being demoted from SWAT team commander to precinct desk sergeant. He blames Jensen for his situation; specifically, his refusal to follow a direct order.

Haas can be found at the Police Station, where he is currently a desk sergeant on duty. When Adam Jensen needs to access the Police Station's morgue to recover the dead [[Purity First]] member's Neural Hub, he has to talk his way in through Wayne or find an alternate access route. It is possible to convince Haas to forgive himself and take charge of his life once again. In this case, Haas will be grateful and let Jensen inside the station and also give him permission to move around the station freely, without antagonizing other policemen. Jensen can also make Haas confront his past and leave it behind without antagonizing him. It is also possible to point out a bottle of pills in the trash can behind, and threaten to report it, also allowing Jensen access, but antagonizing Wayne in the process.
   
 
Later, when Adam returns to Detroit, Wayne confronts him at his [[Chiron Building|apartment complex]], revealing that he has been fired for letting Adam into the morgue. Adam can then tell Wayne off, which will anger Wayne and make him pull a gun on Adam. Alternatively, Adam can offer Wayne a job working security at Sarif Industries, saying it pays more and Wayne would not be stuck at a desk job, which Wayne will be grateful for. If Adam "blackmailed" Haas into letting him into the morgue, Haas will also pull a gun on Jensen and try to kill him. Wayne Haas can be knocked out pretty much immediately in the fight or killed. Nothing seems to change based on the action taken there, nor will it affect the [[Foxiest of the Hounds]] achievement/trophy.
