Call of Duty: Black Ops/Characters

A list of characters from Black Ops and Black Ops 2.

Captain Alex Mason

Badass
Brainwashed and Crazy
Deprogramming: Hudson helps him undergo this, but it doesn't fully work. It is one of the reasons why Mason is deemed a threat to national security and targeted by the CIA in 1978.
Determinator
Informed Ability: Mason's dossier mentions that he is an expert marksman. But at no point in the game do we get to see his skills as a sniper.
- Well there are a couple of missions where you start off with a sniper rifle, but this is rare. Also there is the possibility that Mason killed JFK so that requires at least some competency with a rifle.
Manchurian Agent
One-Man Army: In Rebirth.
Roaring Rampage of Revenge: In Payback.
Rogue Agent: In Rebirth, and in 1978 along with Hudson and Weaver while pursuing an unknown lead.

The Archer: Hudson's weapon of choice for silently killing enemies is a crossbow.
Badass Bookworm: Has a genius level IQ according to his bio.
- He also graduated from Georgetown University with a double major in psychology and political science, in addition to serving with distinction in the U.S. Army's 101st Airborne Division.
Bald of Awesome
Big Damn Heroes: He saves Mason from being executed by Dragovich by shooting the latter in the shoulder.
Cool Shades: Wears them all the time, and does an awesome Glasses Pull in one of the later stages.
Get a Hold of Yourself, Man!: did this to Mason prior to the final mission
Glasses Pull
Good Is Not Nice: When Mason doesn't give him and Weaver satisfactory replies in the opening cutscene, Hudson shocks him. About three times.
Guns Akimbo
The Handler
Jerkass: He starts off as this, but turns into a Jerk with a Heart of Gold in the second to last level.
Not So Stoic: In contrast to his personality as depicted in the backstory, he swears and yells frequently at Mason when trying to get the meaning of the number codes out of him.
The Man Behind the Curtain: When interrogating Mason.
Rogue Agent: In 1978 along with Mason and Weaver while pursuing an unknown lead.
The Stoic: He is, as Mason describes him, an "ice cube".

Atomic F-Bomb: In the beginning of Payback when forced to play Russian Roulette.
Badass
Blood Knight: Actually volunteers to fight in Vietnam, which Hudson says would be "like a day at the beach" for him.
Heroic Sacrifice: Throws himself and Kravchenko away from Mason when the later tries to blow them all up, but...
Never Found the Body: A secret file in the game outright says that he's still alive and is being held in the infamous Viet Cong prison Hanoi Hilton. Considering the Mind Screw nature of the story, whether or not this is actually true remains to be seen.
- Black Ops 2 has revealed this to actually be Not Quite Dead.
Roaring Rampage of Revenge: The Payback mission.
Sergeant Rock

Badass
Eyepatch of Power: After his first appearance.
Eye Scream: He is first seen in-game taking a radio antenna to the eye. He survives, though. Unlike Sheppard from Modern Warfare 2.
I Owe You My Life: To Mason after he helped rescue him in Russia. He tries to partially pay Mason back by setting him up on a date with a hot CIA secretary. It did not go well.
The Man Behind the Curtain
The Mole: Served as the CIA's mole in Dragovich's organization, but was discovered.
Rogue Agent: In 1978 along with Mason and Hudson while pursuing an unknown lead.
Russian Guy Suffers Most: Closely averted, at least he survived after getting captured by Kravchenko.
Token Enemy Minority

Anticlimax Boss
A Nazi by Any Other Name
Big Bad
Complete Monster: If you listen to his research logs you will learn that he tested Nova 6 on children and infants.
General Ripper
Manipulative Bastard
Not Quite Dead: Mason thought he blew up his limousine.
You Have Outlived Your Usefulness: Did this to some of his employees, mainly because He Knows Too Much.

Ax Crazy
The Brute
Cutscene Boss
Colonel Kilgore
Complete Monster: Reznov's stage shows him slowly executing unarmed German soldiers that had surrendered during the fight with headshots, cutting open the last one's throat when he unexpectedly runs out of bullets.
- His intel file reveals that he mutilated and killed his own sister after she spurned Dragovich's advances.
The Dragon: To Dragovich, with is ironic considering that "Dragovich" is Russian for "son of the dragon".
Husky Russkie
The Sociopath: His intel file notes he is utterly without feeling unless he is inflicting suffering on someone.
Taking You with Me: Attempted, but doesn't get Mason thanks to Woods's Heroic Sacrifice.

Boom! Headshot!
Chronic Backstabbing Disorder
Commie Nazis
Cutscene Boss
Dirty Coward: tried to defect to the CIA after knowing that he has outlived his usefulness to Dragovich.
Mad Scientist
Smug Snake: A coward who died like a complete chump, trying to bargain his way out of being killed.
Those Wacky Nazis: According to Reznov anyway.
You Have Outlived Your Usefulness: The reason Dragovich's men are in his facility is because he thinks that He Knows Too Much

Boom! Headshot!: his death
Crazy Prepared: He has stashes of weapons all over Kowloon and enough explosives in his lab to take both it out and a nearby helicopter trying to steal his research.
Killed Mid-Sentence: "Oh yes! The numbers. They're the key to.... *bang*"
Mad Scientist
One-Scene Wonder: He only appears in one level, but his crazy-preparedness, his endurance against torture, and his large-ham lines make him a particularly memorable character.
Properly Paranoid
Too Kinky to Torture: "I am already a dead man!"
You Have Outlived Your Usefulness: He knows it as well, and already prepared a lot of things for it.

Generation Xerox: Like his father, he finds himself fighting a new Cold War with China.
