Damon, known in Japan as Taira Taizan, is a former Obelisk Blue student who couldn't always get the card he wanted to draw so he went to live out in the jungle to perfect his strange drawing technique. Damon returns during the second year as one of the few Obelisk Blue students left untouched by the Society of Light, and participates in one duel of the Genex tournament against Mathmatica.

Damon's character is based on Tarzan. In the English dub, Damon replaces the word "I" with "me" when referring to himself, to further the Tarzan homage.

[edit] Deck

Damon uses a Draw Deck. His strategy centers primarily on powering up his "Drawler" monster by returning cards from his hand to the bottom of his deck, or inflicting Direct Damage through the effect of "Miracle Draw".

In Yu-Gi-Oh! GX Tag Force after aquiring Damon's Deck Recipe, the player is also given the card, "Doron".
