In the religion of Haitian Vodou, Captain Debas (also Debard, Deebat) is a loa of the ghede.

According to "Secrets of voodoo"[clarification needed] Captain Debas is part of the rada nation, not ghede, and should be served in rada rites rather than ghede rites. He is an family loa and can be combined with any other loa of any nation who allows families. He originates from Africa and is originally from Vodoun.
