A conductive roller includes a base including an outer surface along and about an axial line thereof, and a surface layer arranged on the outer surface of the base. The surface layer includes particles. The ten-point height of irregularities Rz of the outer surface of the base is greater than or equal to 6.0 micrometers and less than or equal to 8.0 micrometers. A ten-point height of irregularities Rz of an outer surface of the surface layer is greater than or equal to 5.5 micrometers and less than or equal to 8.5 micrometers. The base included in the conductive roller preferably includes a core member and a conductive elastic layer arranged between the core member and the surface layer. The surface layer preferably includes a conductive portion including a resin material and a conductive agent.
