Cuervo Cero is a fictional character in the Super Robot Wars series. He has appeared as a non-playable character in Super Robot Taisen: Original Generation 2 and Super Robot Wars Original Generations.
Cuervo Cero was a former School instructor, prior to the events in the Original Generation universe. One of the first trainees for the program would be Radha Bairaban, but seeing the difficulty and the stress the School had to offer, he opted Radha out, having her as an assistant, instead. Years later, he would encounter Latooni-11, Bronzo-27, Bronzo-28 and Aurum-1. To them, he was like a surrogate father, treating them with kindness and respect, even giving them full names, rather than addressing them by their designation.
When the School was shut down, Cuervo stayed with Águila Setme to continue the program in secret, by joining with the Divine Crusaders. However, Radha would not come along with him and went to Mao Industries instead. When the events of Original Generation 2 unfolded, Águila has Cuervo sends Bronzo-27 and Bronzo-28, now known as Seolla Schweitzer and Arado Balanga, to the aid of the Divine Crusader Remnants. Unfortunately, the sudden loss of Arado would force Cuervo to alter Seolla's memory, albeit reluctantly. Along with Águila, he would defect from the Neo Divine Crusaders to the Shadow-Mirror, and relocate to the Earth Cradle. Once again, unforeseen circumstances would have him alter both Seolla and Aurum-1's memories again, further fueling his guilty conscience.
When the Earth Federation Army successfully infiltrated the Earth Cradle, the supercomputer Magus made an attempt to restore the facility using Machine Cells, but it was too late. Cuervo would be trapped under the rubble, and though Radha, who was with the Federation forces, would try to save him, Cuervo would urge her to escape the Earth Cradle. In his dying breath, he asked Radha to forgive him for not following her and for what he did to the School children.
