Rolento, who is given the full name Rolento F. Schugerg (ロレント・F・シュゲルグ, Rorento F Shugerugu) in Street Fighter Alpha 2, was originally an enemy character in the beat-em-up Final Fight, where he appears as the boss of the Industrial Area stage. He is a former member of the fictional Red Beret special forces unit, who serves as the supervisor of the Mad Gear gang's weapons plant. In the game, he fights using a rod and resorts to throwing grenades when he's low on energy. Although Rolento was omitted in the SNES ports of Final Fight, he appears in the SNES sequel, Final Fight 2, as the boss of the Italy stage.

Rolento makes his first appearance in the Street Fighter series in the original Street Fighter Alpha, where he makes a cameo in Sodom's ending among other former Mad Gear members gathered by Sodom to help rebuild the gang. His actual debut as a playable fighter was in Street Fighter Alpha 2, in which Rolento seeks to build a military utopia following the downfall of the Mad Gear gang and is looking to recruit his former ally and nemesis, Sodom and Guy respectively, to his cause. Rolento's ending in Alpha 2 depicts him invading the streets of Metro City after forming his own army. In Street Fighter Alpha 3, Rolento seeks to persuade Cody, another former nemesis, to join his army. In his ending, Rolento attempts to infiltrate Shadaloo's underground base to gain M. Bison's secret weapon, the Psycho Drive, only to destroy it with Sodom's help.

Rolento's fighting style in the Street Fighter is roughly based on his Final Fight counterpart. He uses his rod and grenades from Final Fight, as well as throwing knives and wires. One of Rolento's Super Combos in the Alpha series, "Take No Prisoners", involves Rolento's opponent being hooked to ceiling by either, El Gado or Holly Wood, both enemy characters from Final Fight who appear to be working for Rolento during the Alpha series.

Outside the Street Fighter series, Rolento appears as a playable character in Final Fight Revenge, a 3D fighting game spinoff to the Final Fight series, as well in Capcom vs. SNK 2. Although he does not actually appear in the game, Rolento also plays a role in Doctrine Dark's back-story in the original Street Fighter EX, in which Rolento was the one responsible for physically crippling him and his psychotic breakdown (Dark's fighting style is also partly modeled after Rolento's, who was inspired by Rolento's motto of "nothing is unfair as long as you win"). He also makes several cameo appearances through Super Gem Fighter Mini Mix including a costume wore by Ibuki in one of her Mighty Combos.
