It is later revealed that while he was missing for three years, he was taken in by the [[Pigmask]]s at some point and was brainwashed and reconstructed. He became the [[Masked Man]], commander of the army, and was [[Porky]]'s loyal "robot". Porky then uses him to pull the [[Seven Needles]], a crucial part in his plan to destroy the world. During a long battle with [[Lucas|his brother]], fighting over the final Needle, the ghost of [[Hinawa]] appears. She urges him to stop fighting, and reminds him that he's not Porky's robot, but Claus, her son. He finally recalls his former identity, and commits suicide to join his mother in the afterlife.

==In the ''{{se|Super Smash Bros.}}'' series==
One of [[Lucas]]'s {{sw|alternate costume}}s starting with his introduction in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'' changes his color scheme to resemble Claus, where his hair changes to orange and the color scheme of his clothes changes to match Claus's.
Claus himself has a {{sw|sticker}} in ''Brawl'' which increases Lucas and [[Ness]]'s PSI attack power by 13. In ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'', Claus has a neutral type [[Spirit]]. In his Spirit Battle, he is represented by the aforementioned orange Lucas and a gray metal Lucas with a {{sw|Beam Sword}}, the latter of which represents when he was brainwashed into becoming the Masked Man. The Masked Man himself additionally has a Spirit of his own, which is an attack Spirit who starts the player off with a Beam Sword and increases the power of sword-based attacks.
