Characters from Super Robot Wars 64 include:
Brad Skywind
Male protagonist of the super route, Brad's a hot-blooded red-head who fights under the style Bukki-Hakken Ryuu under Master Viror Sunder, as well as rival Katz. He seems to lean more on the idealistic side compared to the more pragmatic Katz. When Viror vanishes alongside with a man riding a Gespenst MK III - HAAAANG ON A MINUTE... - he and Katz swore to continue their master's teaching and join forces with the Londo Bell to free the Earth from alien liberation. However, the two rivals' point of view clashes and they separate.
Brad pilots the Earthgain, the predecessor of Axel Almer's Soulgain. Should the condition meets, it's upgraded into the Super Earthgain, which looks more like Vindel Mauser's Zweizergain. Tropes associated with Brad are:
- Expy (Earthgain to Soulgain, Super Earthgain to Zweizergain)
- Less of an expy and more of an "upgraded model", as the Shadow-Mirror universe has a lot of similarities to the 64 World
- Word of God Jossed this, stating 64 won't have a place in Super Robot Wars Original Generation, so expy will have to do.
- Less of an expy and more of an "upgraded model", as the Shadow-Mirror universe has a lot of similarities to the 64 World
- Fish Out of Water (According to Katz, he rarely goes outside of his training method, so he gets awkward in normal situations)
- Good Scars, Evil Scars (He has a cross shaped scar on his forehead, and though people label him a "bad boy", he's a good one)
- Hot-Blooded
- Redheaded Hero
- Red Oni, Blue Oni (He's the Red to Katz's Blue)
- Spell My Name with an "S" (Sometimes called "Blood Skywind")
Katz Folneus
Brad's rival, Katz is the much more pragmatic and believes sacrifices are necessary in order to attain the greater goal. This method of thinking causes him to have conflicts with Brad and ends up defecting to the enemy group. Brad can convince him to rejoin him, otherwise he would die, leaving Brad as the only successor of the Bukki-Hakken Ryuu.
Katz pilots the Virose, the predecessor of the Vysaga, except it uses kicks instead of a katana and many assorted weapons. He gives this to Brad if he dies, and it gets combined into the Super Earthgain. He embodies these tropes:
- Expy (The Virose to the Vysaga)
- Extremity Extremist (No punches; kicks only)
- Heel Face Revolving Door
- Red Oni, Blue Oni
- The Rival
- Well-Intentioned Extremist
Manami Hamill

She later encounters her cousin Aisha riding the Simurgh's partner machine Elbulls and can convince her. The Simurgh and the Elbulls can combine into the Simurgh Splendid, only more focused on melee. She embodies these tropes:
- Expy (The Simurgh Splendid to Lamia Loveless' Angelg)
- Its model number SMSC stands for "Simurgh Splendid Custom", the exact model number of the Angelg
