20	[[folder:Lee Linjun]]
21	[[quoteright:300:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/lee.png]]
22	[[caption-width-right:300:TheNeidermeyer in dire need of a drill up his ass.]]
23	-> '''Voiced by:''' Creator/RyoWakabayashi (''Orignal Generations''), Creator/KousukeOkano (''The Inspectors'' onwards)
24	--> ''"...watch me, Tetsuya Onodera! This is my...This is the path Lee Linjun took!"''
25
26	A former classmate of [[Characters/SuperRobotWarsOriginalGenerationSteelDragonBattleGroup Tetsuya Onodera]], Lee Linjun functions as the semi-EvilCounterpart of Tetsuya in every way imaginable. His mannerisms in combat involve "[[ByTheBookCop following the book]]", to a point where it becomes painstakingly ridiculous. Lee also holds no care for his subordinates, [[WeHaveReserves seeing them mere pawns that can be easily replaced]]. To that end, he holds a serious grudge against the participants of "Operation SRW" (which includes almost all of the "[[Characters/SuperRobotWarsOriginalGenerationSteelDragonBattleGroup Steel Dragon Battle Group]]"; Tetsuya gets the brunt of his excuse). The reason? His wife Cynthia and his parents were killed during the Beijing attack by the "[[Characters/SuperRobotWarsOriginalGenerationAntagonists Aerogaters]]". The result: [[FreudianExcuse blame the heroes, NOT the invaders for his loss]].
27
28	Lee makes his debut in ''Original Generation 2'' as captain of the rebuilt ''Shirogane''. During the war with the "[[Characters/SuperRobotWarsOriginalGeneration Neo Divine Crusaders]]", Lee falls for a downright-obvious trap set by "[[Characters/SuperRobotWarsAdvance Shadow-Mirror]]" forces, and the ''Shirogane'' is captured. Lee's approached by [[Characters/SuperRobotWarsAdvance Vindel Mauser]] and offered a position among their ranks, which he readily accepts. As if he can't get any worse, Lee launches a surprise attack on the ''Hagane'' during the battle at the "North American Langley Base", though the combined ''Hagane'' and ''Hiryu Custom'' crews escape. When the "[[Characters/SuperRobotWarsClassic Inspectors]]" and Shadow-Mirror fall back to the "White Star", [[RivalTurnedEvil Lee faces Tetsuya]], now Deputy Captain of the ''Kurogane''. As a last-ditch effort, Lee attempts to ram the ''Kurogane'' with the ''Shirogane''...except he forgets the ''Kurogane'' mounts [[ThisIsADrill A GIANT DRILL]] on its bow. The ''Shirogane'' is shredded to pieces.
29
30	However, ''Original Generations'' {{Retcon}}s the event with the ''Shirogane'' retreating. As much as it's hard to believe Lee can [[NoOneCouldSurviveThat survive a battleship-sized drill to the face]], he returns in the ''Second Original Generation'' working for the "[[Characters/SuperRobotWarsOriginalGenerationAntagonists Gaia Sabers]]" as captain of their flagship ''Air Christmas'', under the alias "Carly Neuman". His old persona is quickly discovered by the Steel Dragon Battle Group, however.
31	[[hardline]]
32	* AdaptationalHeroism: In ''The Inspector'', he is absent from Operation Plantagenet after the liberation of Tesla Reich Institute. This means that he wasn't the one who caused [[spoiler:Captain Daitetsu's death]] while not defecting to the Shadow Mirrors as well. He is also less of a jerk to the heroes compared to the games. Justified as he is OutOfFocus.
33	* EarlyBirdCameo: The side-story manga ''Record of ATX'' has Lee cameo as captain of an aircraft carrier during the Battle of Beijing. [[spoiler:He watches helplessly as the city's razed by the Aerogaters]].
34	* {{Expy}}: Lee is practically a mirror of [[Characters/SuperRobotWarsOriginalGenerationAntagonists Tempest Hawker]] from the first game - both men are associates to a party member, motivated by [[spoiler:a dead family member]] and are {{Jerkass}}es. Tempest defected to the "[[Characters/SuperRobotWarsOriginalGenerationAntagonists Divine Crusaders]]", though Lee doesn't, despite being antagonistic and a playable character, until he joins the Shadow-Mirror.
35	* FaceHeelTurn: Although in Lee's case, this may count as a subversion. While not presented as a traditional "[[{{Face}} good guy]]" at the start, by mid-game, he decides to embrace his true villainy.
36	** HeelFaceTurn: [[spoiler:In the ''Second Original Generation'', when [[Characters/SuperRobotWarsOriginalGenerationOthersAndWalkingSpoilers Arteil Steinbeck reveals himself to be Euzeth Gozzo]] and [[YouHaveOutlivedYourUsefulness damages]] the ''Air Christmas'', Lee pulls this since he [[EvenEvilHasStandards still retains some standards]] by [[RammingAlwaysWorks ramming the battleship]] [[HeroicSacrifice into Euzeth's Adamatron before teleporting it inside and self-destructing]], causing a massive internal explosion. This gives Irui the opening to push Ing out of the Adamatron, making it stoppable]].
37	* {{Foil}}: Lee amounts to being pretty much this in order to give Tetsuya his CharacterDevelopment.
38	* FreudianExcuse: His family died during the Aerogater attack on Beijing, when Ingram betrayed the Steel Dragon Battle Group. Whether it is because he is blaming them for failing to protect his family, getting them caught in the crossfire or a combination of the two or some other factor is up for debate.
39	* {{Hypocrite}}: Lee complains about being late to a rendezvous with the ''Hagane'' because the ''Shirogane'' is damaged in one scenario during ''Original Generation 2''. When the former does appear to offer aid, Lee criticizes [[Characters/SuperRobotWarsOriginalGenerationSteelDragonBattleGroup Daitetsu Minase]] for being careless. Somehow, his duties as a soldier apparently comes first.
40	* InformedAbility: There's a reason why the fanbase calls him "a graduate of the dumbass department". His actions and tactics as an EFA captain throughout the games are wildly incompetent and rigid despite being a top graduate of the military academy, with the other heroes babysitting him being the only reason he survived beyond his first actual encounter until his FaceHeelTurn. And this is not counting his asinine idea of trying to ram what is essentially a giant drill when he lost...
41	* {{Jerkass}} [[TheNeidermeyer Neidermeyer]]: One has to wonder if he is solely created just so to be hated to death by players. If the answer's "yes", then Banpresto ''overdid'' it.
42	* IrrationalHatred: The crux of his character - deep down, Lee's just a grief stricken man who's trying to find a way to come to terms with a very tragic loss in his life, but since he copes with his pain by being a complete and utter '''asshole''' to the {{Player Character}}s, it's hard to feel pity for him, ''especially'' since his sneak attack on the ''Hagane'' during the Langley Base assault [[spoiler:leads to Captain Daitetsu's death]], at which point, any sympathy for him is rendered non-existent.
43	* NoOneCouldSurviveThat: Made the [[SarcasmMode brilliant]] decision to ram the ''[[ThisIsADrill Kurogane]]'' as a last ditch effort upon defeat with the ''Shirogane''. Tetsuya responds accordingly and utterly destroys him. This is {{retcon}}ned by ''Original Generations'' in where he retreats instead of exploding like in [=OG2=]. The ''Second Original Generation'' even {{lampshades}} it.
44	* OutOfFocus: Lee gets less screentime in ''The Inspectors''; in fact, when he is supposed to do a FaceHeelTurn, he ''doesn't'', only showing up for a brief moment at the last episode as if he faded into obscurity...
45	* RammingAlwaysWorks:
46	** Averted; ramming doesn't work when your target has a massive drill at its bow, Mr. Linjun. This man graduated ''summa cum laude''[[note]]"with the highest distinction"[[/note]], by the way.
47	** [[spoiler:Played straight when ironically, him doing this in the ''Second Original Generation'' is what gives the Steel Dragon Battle Group their victory. It helps the ''Air Christmas'' is ''designed'' [[http://youtu.be/EtttA0UgDvM?t=1m25s to ram into things]]]].
48	* TheRival: A one-sided case against Tetsuya.
49	* SmugSnake: Banpresto probably want to give him a bit of a sympathy with his back-story, but he's too much of a bastard for any of the fans to care. He still keeps the {{Jerkass}}ery in the ''Second Original Generation'', to the point players find it hard to forgive him, [[spoiler:even after his last minute HeroicSacrifice and RedemptionEqualsDeath]].
50	* StartOfDarkness: He was in Beijing with the ''Hagane'' when the Aerogaters used Mobile Weapons for the first time, during Ingram's betrayal. The result of Ingram's betrayal was that he lost his family and a big part of his hometown.
51	* WellIntentionedExtremist: For all his faults (which is, to say, A LOT), Lee truly has genuine concern for protecting the Earth and [[JerkassHasAPoint he did notice that some of the Earth Federation's higher ups like Kenneth were basically hackjobs only in for personal interests that would run the planet to ground.]] It's too bad [[HorribleJudgeOfCharacter he tends to pick the wrong factions to serve nearly all the time]] (Neo DC, Shadow-Mirror, Gaia Sabers), mainly because of his {{Pride}} and misplaced dislike towards the heroes (see FreudianExcuse) as well as being a smug bastard to the end. [[spoiler:He asserts in his last moments the Steel Dragon Battle Group is the real force that could make the Earth invincible]].

55	[[folder:Randolph Laker]]
56	[[quoteright:300:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/laker.png]]
57	-> '''Voiced by:''' Creator/MotomuKiyokawa
58
59	58-year-old [[TheBrigadier Brigadier-General]] of the Earth Federation Army and commander of the "Far East" branch of the military situated at the "Izu Base" in Japan, Randolph Laker is the one who approved of the plans for the "SRX Development Project" to build and create the SuperRobot "SRX".
60	[[hardline]]
61	* BigGood: Of the first two ''Original Generation'' games.
62	* TheBusCameBack: [[spoiler: After being ousted by Grusman's takeover, he returns in the epilogue of the ''Second Original Generation'', reinstated to his position as commander of the Izu Base]].
63	* CaptainErsatz: Is designed to fill the role normally played by characters like [[Anime/VoltesV General Oka]] or [[Anime/{{Dancougar}} General Igor]] in "standard" [=SRWs=], as the [[ReasonableAuthorityFigure reasonable commander of military who assists the heroes and gives them their marching orders]].
64	* CanonImmigrant: Of sorts; an individual named "Randolph Laker" first appears in the drama CD "Super Robot Wars Alpha Original Story" in a role similar to what this character does.
65	* InconsistentSpelling: It can either be "Randolph" or "Randolf".
66	* PutOnABus: [[spoiler:"Sent on a vacation" after the Grusman faction successfully takes control of the government and military]].
67	[[/folder]]
68
69	[[folder:Takanaka Sakae]]
70	[[quoteright:300:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/sakae.png]]
71	-> '''Voiced by:''' Creator/TakumaSuzuki
72
73	A Lieutenant-Colonel in the Earth Federation Army, 40-year Takanaka Sakae is a staff member at Izu Base and is its deputy commander, following the military's re-organzation post-L5 Campaign, occasionally seen alongside Laker throughout their appearance in ''Original Generation 2''.
74	[[hardline]]
75	* CanonImmigrant: Like Laker, he too appeared first in the "Super Robot Wars Alpha Original Story" drama CD.
76	* PutOnABus: [[spoiler:Sakae's also "sent on a vacation" once the Grusman faction ousts President Midcrid from power. Although he's not present when Laker returns at the end of the ''Second Original Generation'', [[TheBusCameBack Sakae is alive and well]] for ''The Moon Dwellers'']].

79
80	[[folder:Norman Slay]]
81	[[quoteright:300:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/norman_slay.png]]
82	-> '''Voiced by:''' Creator/RyusukeObayashi
83
84	A Major-General from the Federation government's "Chief of Staff", 59-year-old Norman Slay is the one who forms a planetary defense committee in order to perceive the possible threat of extraterrestrials attacking the Earth, and the one who oversees the construction of the "Space Noah-class" battleships (''Hagane'', ''Shirogane'' and ''Kurogane''). Slay also approves of the formation of the "ATX Team", headed by [[Characters/SuperRobotWarsAlphaGaiden Major Sanger Zonvolt]]. When the L5 Campaign is underway, General Slay takes command of Operation SRW from the ''Great Ark'' flagship, but is killed by Aerogater forces during a rush towards the White Star.
85
86	[[/folder]]
87
88	[[folder:Greg Pastral]]
89	[[quoteright:300:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/greg_pastral.png]]
90
91	Earth Federation Army commander of the "North American Langley Base", 55-year-old Major-General Greg Pastral is in charge of finding the recruits behind Major Sanger's choices for the ATX Team. When the "[[CivilWar Divine Crusaders War]]" (DC War) breaks out, Pastral is killed when he elects to stay at the base so the ATX Team and the ''Hiryu Custom'' can evacuate and evade the Divine Crusaders after taking Langley.
92	[[hardline]]
93	* ReasonableAuthorityFigure: He's a reasonable and easy-going military commander. He doesn't hold Kyosuke responsible for the Wildraubtier's accident (correctly suspecting [[VehicularSabotage foul play]] in the part of Hans Weber) and tolerates the eccentricities of [[BunnyEarsLawyer Sanger, Excellen and Marion]].
94	* SacrificialLamb: He dies at the start of the DC War when his base gets attacked, to establish the threat the Divine Crusaders represent to the Earth Federation forces.
95
96	[[/folder]]
97
98	[[folder:Hans Weber]]
99	[[quoteright:300:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/hans_weber.png]]
100	-> '''Voiced by:''' Creator/YuuMasutani
101
102	A Lieutenant-Colonel at the Izu Base, 38-year-old Hans Weber is one of its combat commanders. Heavily elitist in nature, Hans will do anything to advance his career before anyone else, even if it earns him the ire of multiple individuals whom he used to get ahead of. After the end of the DC War, with the appearance of the White Star, Hans flees to the aid of the Divine Crusaders so he be safely part of the long-term hibernation plans in the "Earth Cradle", a facility meant to house survivors [[ApocalypseHow in case of an end-of-the-world scenario]]. Unfortunately, he is KilledOffForReal while en-route to the Earth Cradle.
103	[[hardline]]
104	* TheConspiracy: Hans illegally sold information about talented players in "Burning PT", an InUniverse MechaGame simulating mecha combat, to the DC, which explains how [[Characters/SuperRobotWarsAlpha Ryoto Hikawa]] and [[Characters/SuperRobotWarsOriginalGenerationAntagonists Tenzan Nakajima]] are scouted by the organization first. Additionally, the sabotage of the "[[TransformingMecha Wildraubtier]]" is done to prevent Federation forces from achieving a flight-capable unit.
105	* HateSink: Right as he appeared the first time (as early as the ''1st scenario'' of Kyosuke's route), you can just know from his rather obvious {{Jerkass}} attitude that you are meant to hate him. The fact that he's ObviouslyEvil, part of DC ''and'' doesn't share Bian's noble intentions further hammer down on that statement.
106	* {{Jerkass}}: Whatever came out of his mouth never hides the fact that he's an unpleasant asshole, and leaves people unsurprised that he turns out to be an enemy.
107	* TheMole: Is actually working for the Divine Crusaders all along; Hans is discovered about this when he kidnaps [[Characters/SuperRobotWarsOriginalGenerationSteelDragonBattleGroup Princess Shine Hausen]] to use as leverage against Federation forces by the DC. But then again, [[ObviouslyEvil he's not exactly competent in hiding his true nature.]]
108	* ObviouslyEvil: That smug face is the face he carries all the time, and the first time he's seen in the Kyosuke route, he's the typical elitist bastard that has no care for others' lives and pulled a VehicularSabotage on Kyosuke and then had him assigned to a new place just so he doesn't get in his way. Few are surprised when it turns out that he's an enemy spy.
109	* VehicularSabotage: The one responsible for sabotaging the Wildraubtier transformation when [[Characters/SuperRobotWarsCompact2 Kyosuke Nanbu]] is testing it. While he hopes to MakeItLookLikeAnAccident, Kyosuke comes out unscathed.

113	[[folder:Karl Scheltesman]]
114	[[quoteright:300:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/karl_scheltesman.png]]
115	-> '''Voiced by:''' Creator/SaburouKamei
116
117	The Deputy Chairman of the Security Council for the Federation government, 75-year old Karl Scheltesman is also Chairman of the "Extra-Over Technology (EOT) Council", responsible for allowing research into the technology found inside "Meteor-3" and use it to build and research machines and parts to be used to defend the Earth.
118	[[hardline]]
119	* CorruptBureaucrat: Was one of the representatives in Antarctica [[spoiler:meeting with [[Characters/SuperRobotWarsClassic Teniquette Zezenan]]]] over the first talks with extraterrestrials regarding surrendering the Earth.
120	* KilledOffForReal: Died during his second attempt [[spoiler:to negotiate with the Aerogaters]] in Antarctica aboard the secretly rebuilt ''Shirogane'' [[spoiler:at the hands of [[Characters/SuperRobotWarsAlpha Viletta Vadim]]]].
121	* TheManBehindTheMan: [[spoiler:[[Characters/SuperRobotWarsOriginalGenerationAntagonists Archibald Grims]] did not orchestrate the events behind the "Elpis Incident" - Karl hired him to do it. This was so the Federation could undermine the space colonies' legitimacy for independence]].
122

125	[[folder:Albert Grey]]
126	[[quoteright:300:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/albert_grey.png]]
127	-> '''Voiced by:''' Creator/ManzouOwari
128
129	A subordinate of Scheltesman, 52-year-old Albert Grey was also [[CorruptBureaucrat one of the Federation representatives present at the Antarctic over talks of surrendering the planet to aliens]]. Although injured in the attack by [[Characters/MasouKishin Shu Shirakawa and the Granzon]], Grey survives; unfortunately, [[KilledOffForReal he dies in the Divine Crusaders assault on Earth Federation headquarters at Geneva, Switzerland]], killed by [[Characters/SuperRobotWarsOriginalGenerationAntagonists Tenzan Nakajima]].

133	[[folder:Kenneth Garret]]
134	[[quoteright:300:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/kenneth.png]]
135	-> '''Voiced by:''' Creator/BinbinTakaoka
136
137	The succeeding North American Langley Base commander to General Pastral in ''Original Generation 2'', Major-General Kenneth Garret has little expectations from his subordinates, particularly those of the ATX Team assigned to Langley. When the Inspectors capture Langley during their planetary invasion, Garret retreats to the Izu Base; when Brian Midcrid steps down as President of the Earth Federation, Garret is made commander of Izu in place of Laker all the way towards the ''Second Original Generation''.
138	[[hardline]]
139	* DemotedToExtra: While he never stops being a Jerk, as time goes on he just doesn't have ''time'' to antagonize the Steel Dragon Battle Group the way he used to, between reassignments and everyone having bigger things on their mind.
140	* GeneralFailure: His repeat losses against extraterrestrials throughout the games inevitably [[spoiler:forces him to step down as commander of the Izu Base by the end of the ''Second Original Generation'']].
141	* {{Jerkass}}: Despises the Steel Dragon Battle Group for their extensive campaign record and accomplishments. [[spoiler:This is one of the reasons he sides with Graien Grusman and his takeover of the government in ''Original Generation 2'', as Kenneth hopes to minimize the Battle Group's importance over his own]].

144
145	[[folder:Brian Midcrid]]
146	[[quoteright:300:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/brian.png]]
147	-> '''Voiced by:''' Creator/ShowHayami
148
149	Part of the "Colonial Integration Office", Brian Midcrid is the politician behind "[=NID4=]", the support to autonomize the space colonies' independence, favoring its movement through non-violence. When the Divine Crusaders War occurs, he is extracted from the colonies by the crew of the ''Hiryu Custom'' and brought to Earth. Due to "[[TheRemnant Divine Crusaders Remnants]]" attacking Federation headquarters and killing many of the government higher-ups, Midcrid is appointed as the President of the Earth Federation by ''Original Generation 2''. Six months after the "L5 Campaign" of pushing the Aerogaters away from the Earth, President Midcrid announces the "Tokyo Manifest", a new government decree which will better rearm and strengthen the Earth Federation Army for future incursions against extraterrestrial threats, dubbing this the "Shield of Aegis". Unfortunately, his term at office is cut short when he's forced to step down by his detractors for his policies.
150	[[hardline]]
151	* CaptainErsatz: A politician from the space colonies who heavily supports their independence from an Earth-controlled government using non-violence as an approach; are we talking about Brian Midcrid or [[Anime/MobileSuitGundamWing the original Heero Yuy]]?
152	* DumbIsGood: See below
153	* PutOnABus: There's no mention of him [[spoiler:after being ousted from office]], though he does appear at the end of ''Original Generation 2''. Midcrid reappears in ''The Moon Dwellers'' with the intent on negotiating a peace treaty with the "[[Characters/SuperRobotWarsGC Gadisword]]" faction as they enter Earth space.
154	* UnfitForGreatness: Despite issuing the Tokyo Manifest, he still believes peace talks with the Inspectors after they take control of the moon and multiple military sites on Earth is a viable option. [[spoiler:This only leads to a coup d'etat by the Grusman faction within the Federation government, unseating him from power]].
155

157
158	[[folder:Graien Grusman]]
159	[[quoteright:300:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/graien.png]]
160	-> '''Voiced by:''' Creator/NobuakiKanemitsu
161
162	Chairman of the Federation government's security committee, Graien is nicknamed "[[InSeriesNickname the Wizard]]" for his appearance and excellent behind-the-scenes work by his peers. Whereas Midcrid is a supporter for his "Shield of Aegis" philosophy, Graien believes the world requires the "Sword of Harpe". He becomes the succeeding Earth Federation President in ''Original Generation 2'' all the way towards the ''Second Original Generation''.
163	[[hardline]]
164	* KilledOffForReal: [[spoiler:Graien dies in aboard a transport plane right in the path of the ''Hagane'' as the latter is making their escape from the Gaia Sabers]].
165	* TreacherousAdvisor: [[spoiler:Leads the government coup to outst President Midcrid from power, with help from Kenneth Garret and [[Characters/SuperRobotWarsOriginalGenerationOthersAndWalkingSpoilers Mitsuko Isurugi]]]].
166	* UnwittingPawn: [[spoiler:Arteil sets up Graien to witness the Steel Dragon Battle Group's "coup", then deliberately places him aboard a shuttle, which takes off from the ''Air Christmas'' into the path of the fleeing battleships, killing him off. This is so Steinbeck can frame the Battle Group for assassinating the President and taking full command of the Gaia Sabers]].
167	* WellIntentionedExtremist: Graien believes the Earth requires a more militant government in hopes to combat extraterrestrials, hence why he sees the "Shield of Aegis" decreed by Midcrid as pointless, whereas the "Sword of Harpe" is necessary. This culminates not only with [[spoiler:[[CorruptPolitician his faction within the government toppling the current regime under Presdient Midcrid]]]], it ascends him to be next president, ultimately leading towards the creation of the Gaia Sabers by the ''Second Original Generation''. For a brief time, [[TheExtremistWasRight he proved successful]], since his "Sword of Harpe" enabled victory for the Terra Federation Forces in the Inspector Wars and later on the Shura Rebellion. On his death, the Federation mourned for his death, acknowledging his well intentions and [[spoiler:why Tetsuya agreed for the demotion punishment for accidentally killing him.]]

172	[[quoteright:300:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/nibhal.png]]
173	-> '''Voiced by:''' Creator/KoujiIshii
174
175	The former secretary to President Midcrid, Nibhal Mubhal becomes President Grusman's aide when he ascends to power. Known for his rich network of contacts, Nibhal's identity remains a mystery, as are his true intentions.
176	[[hardline]]
177	* TheReveal: In reality, his allegiance lies with [[spoiler:Arteil Steinbeck]]. However, it's still made unclear whether Nibhal is an Earthling or a HumanAlien.
178	* WildCard: While Nibhal is still aligned with Graien and his government, most fans tend to believe [[HiddenAgendaVillain he has his own agenda]]. The most popular theory is he's an agent installed by the [[Characters/SuperRobotWarsClassic Zuvorg Alliance]] to keep an eye on humanity's activities, then report back to his superiors. The biggest evidence of this are his secret communications with the Inspectors during ''Original Generation 2''.
179	* YouHaveOutlivedYourUsefulness: [[spoiler:Killed and left for dead by Euzeth aboard the ''Air Christmas''; it's suggested by him that [[CorruptBureaucrat Nibhal will likely sell information]] regarding Euzeth to either Mitsuko, the Zuvorg Alliance or a third party. In any case, Euzeth kills Nibhal in order to silence him]].

185
186	A senator in the Federation government, Taylor Centrum is the father to [[Characters/SuperRobotWarsMX Aqua Centrum]]. Taylor does not approve of ex-President Midcrid stepping down, nor is he a supporter of President Grusman's policies, especially where his daughter is concerned, as she belongs to the Steel Dragon Battle Group, whom the Gaia Sabers accuse of breaking military protocol in the ''Second Original Generation''.

193
194	Holding the rank of Lieutenant, Kido Haruma appears in the ''Divine Wars'' AnimatedAdaptation. A commander in the Earth Federation Army's tank corps, he's an instrumental factor in the CharacterDevelopment early on for [[Characters/SuperRobotWarsAlpha Ryusei Date]].

235	[[hardline]]
236	* BaitAndSwitchTyrant: Placed in charge to whip the RagtagBunchOfMisfits into order. Fortunately, he does take his underling's logic into consideration better than Lee did and by the end of the game he's become more seasoned.
237	* BigGood: The entire Steel Dragons have to answer to him. While at first he's strict, he becomes slightly more reasonable towards the end. [[spoiler:Though he does get pissed when Shu takes over the role when he orders Touya to destroy the Cross Gate while Miles objects as they're not cleared by the higher ups.]]
238	* CharacterCatchphrase: When somebody responds to his questions, he likes to comment on whether or not he thinks it's the "[[GratuitousEnglish Best answer]]."
239	* CharacterDevelopment: Goes from an uptight military man who needs to ask for Joint Command Headquarters every single time an important decision must be made, into a more reasonable man who can see that there are decisions that have to be done on-site.
240	* {{Expy}}: At first he looked like a replacement for Lee Linjun, albeit slightly more amiable by not belittling them at any chances he had. However, [[spoiler:his by-the-book attitude eventually caused him to make great mistakes and almost set him to be a more complete Expy, but he backpedalled and got better.]]
241	* FrontlineGeneral: While clearly he could have just issued orders from the headquarters, he's given the order to stay at Hagane and directly supervise there, getting caught into whatever chaos it caused. It works wonders for him because it allowed him to develop for better.
