Cardassian officer. Damar was assigned to the freighter Groumall in 2372, under the command of Gul Dukat. Damar went with Dukat after he commandeered a Klingon bird-of-prey and began a one-ship offensive against the Klingons.
Glinn Damar was present at Gul Dukat's side when forces of the Cardassian and Dominion fleets recaptured station Deep Space 9 in 2373. Around stardate 51145, Damar discovered a method of using an antigraviton beam to defeat the self-replicating mines that blockaded the Bajoran wormhole. As Dukat's aide, Damar became concerned at Dukat's devotion to his daughter, Tora Ziyal, fearing that she might have loyalties to the Bajorans. Damar killed Ziyal in 2374 after hearing her confession that she had helped to sabotage the station's weapons system. By mid 2374, Damar had been promoted to gul, and he ruled Cardassia in place of Gul Dukat. The pressures of his responsibilities, as well as the untenable situation in which Damar found his people, led him to seek refuge in kanar, an intoxicating beverage. Damar soon realized that the Dominion cared nothing for the well-being of the Cardassia people. He returned to his homeworld to rally his people to fight the Dominion. Damar was killed by Jem'Hadar forces during the final hours of the Dominion war, ironically fighting alongside former Bajoran terrorist Kira Nerys.
Glinn Damar was first seen in "Return to Grace" (DS9).
