Damon S. Baird is a fictional character in the Gears of War franchise. He first appeared in the first and eponymous video game of the series as a supporting character. He has since appeared in every mainline installment of the Gears franchise, and is featured as the main protagonist of the spin-off title, Gears of War: Judgment. He is voiced by Fred Tatasciore in all video game appearances.
Within the series, Baird is a soldier who enlisted with the Coalition of Ordered Governments ("COG"), a supranational and intergovernmental human military collective since Emergence Day, to fight a race of subterranean reptilian hominids known as the Locust Horde in their genocidal war against humanity on the planet Sera. He is depicted as a polymath who is an expert in several technical, mechanical, and scientific fields. Baird is known for his abrasive, wise-cracking personality, which often puts him at odds with series protagonist Marcus Fenix. While Baird is considered a fan favorite among many series fans, he has proven to be a divisive character among video game journalists.
