Corporal / Sergeant Roebuck

The American sergeant in the war, leader of Private Miller's group.

Badass

Sacrificial Lion: He could be, depending on your action.

Sergeant Sullivan

The former leader of the group that rescued Private Miller, he was killed early in the game.

The Captain: Prior to his death.
Dropped a Bridge on Him: His death at the hands of a Japanese soldier with a bayonet comes of as surprising as the soldier seems to come out of nowhere.
Sacrificial Lamb

Private Dimitri Petrenko

A Soviet solder fighting in the Eastern Front against Nazi Germany. The player character of the Soviet campaign in the game.

Badass
Back for the Dead: In Call of Duty: Black Ops.
Cruel and Unusual Death: Killed along with Reznov's new squad in Black Ops when Dragovich unleashes Nova 6 on them, causing their bodies to pretty much fall apart... as a test of the gas.
Heroic Mime: Until Black Ops.
Made of Iron: He cheats death, like, five times over the course of one game. This is actually acknowledged by Sergeant Reznov.
Player Character

Sergeant Viktor Reznov

A sergeant of the Red Army, seems to be the leader of Petrenko's group.

Anti-Hero: Type IV, brushing with a Type V judging by his penchant for killing surrendering Germans and, in Black Ops reverse-engineering his friend to put him on a slow-acting vicarious Roaring Rampage of Revenge
Axe Crazy
Badass
Berserk Button: Hurt Dimitri, and Reznov will slice you up. Or brainwash someone into slicing you up.
Blood Knight
Cold Sniper: Used to be this until his hand was wounded.
Dead All Along: possibly in Black Ops, since most of his appearances are hallucinations in Mason's mind, but again, his death is never confirmed.
Determinator: He brainwashes Alex Mason into killing the guys that murdered Dimitri.
Large Ham
Mother Russia Makes You Strong
My Name Is Inigo Montoya/ Punctuated! For! Emphasis!: MY NAME IS VIKTOR! REZNOV! AND I! WILL! HAVE! MY! REVENGE!
Roaring Rampage of Revenge: in Black Ops
Sociopathic Hero: He really likes killing Germans and encourages the player character to kill helpless, surrendering German soldiers.
Unwitting Pawn: to Dragovich and almost got killed by NOVA 6 like Petrenko if not for the SAS interference.
Weapon of Choice: His knife. He doesn't use it often, probably because everyone else is shooting, but it's pretty memorable when he does.

Captain Alex Mason

Brainwashed and Crazy: at least a little subverted by Reznov by making him do something else entirely
Determinator
Ink Suit Actor: He bears a striking resemblance to his actor Sam Worthington.
Nice Job Breaking It, Hero: killing Steiner
No-Holds-Barred Beatdown: Did this to Dragovich in the final mission.
One-Man Army: In Rebirth since 'Reznov' there was actually a hallucination, he effectively thrashed the whole facility himself
Player Character: most of the time in Black Ops.
Roaring Rampage of Revenge: especially in Payback
Unreliable Narrator

Sergeant Frank Woods

Atomic F-Bomb: in the beginning of Payback when forced to play Russian Roulette.
Badass
Badass Beard
Never Found the Body: Furthermore, 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. He is shown as an old man in a recent Black Ops 2 trailer, so this information is true, regardless of the Mind Screw of most of the first Black Ops.
Roaring Rampage of Revenge: in Payback.
Taking You with Me: to Kravchenko. Woods lives.
Sergeant Rock

Chief Petty Officer Joseph Bowman

Badass Beard
Black Dude Dies First: He's far from the first character to die in the game, but he is the first SOG member to die.
Break the Badass / Heroic BSOD: had a bad one when captured by the NVA, before getting clubbed to death by the Russian operative
Ink Suit Actor: It's Ice Cube.

Special Agent Jason Hudson

Badass Bookworm: Has a double major in Psychology and Political Science, a genius level IQ, and is a brilliant tactician. He also deduces that Reznov's not real just by reading Mason's combat reports. He also frees Mason and lets himself get knocked out so he can follow him around and see what he does in the hope that it will trigger something. It does.
Big Damn Heroes: He saves Mason from being executed by Dragovich by shooting the latter in the shoulder.
Cool Shades
Get a Hold of Yourself, Man!: Did this to Mason prior to the final mission, knocking him out with a punch to the face.
Glasses Pull: Before "Payback".
Good Is Not Nice: When Mason doesn't give him and Weaver satisfactory replies in the opening cutscene, Hudson shocks him. About three times.
Jerkass: He starts off as this, but turns into a Jerk with a Heart of Gold in the second to last level.
Player Character: for some missions.
Unseen Audience: He is one of the two guys interrogating Mason for most the game.

Special Agent Grigori Weaver

Eyepatch of Power
Eye Scream: done by Kravchenko, which results in him wearing an eyepatch for the rest of the game.
Russian Guy Suffers Most: Closely averted, at least he survived after getting captured by Kravchenko
Token Minority
Unseen Audience: He is one of the two interrogators for Mason in most of the game.

Dr Daniel Clarke

Boom! Headshot!: His death.
Crazy Prepared: His safe house is filled with guns, along with other safeguards in case he needs to escape.
His Name Is--

Dr. Clarke: The numbers! They're the key to--!

Mad Scientist: Somewhat, though willing to cooperate with the military.
Too Kinky to Torture
You Have Outlived Your Usefulness: One reason why Dragovich wanted him dead.
