Claus (pronunciation: klaos; Japanese: クラウス; Klaus in the North American version of Super Smash Bros. Brawl) is a major character in MOTHER 3. He is a boy from Tazmily Village. Claus is energetic and far more courageous than Lucas. He is last seen by the player lying motionless near the Drago Plateau, although the residents of Tazmily are never made aware of this.
The Masked Man is the secondary antagonist of MOTHER 3; a mysterious character who debuts during the final scene of the fifth chapter. He is the only other person besides Lucas capable of removing the seven Needles. He attacks with lightning, a sword, an arm cannon and PK Love. Additionally, he has the ability to destroy PSI Shields and use mechanical wings to fly away. He also has a lightning attack that is able to instantly render Lucas's entire party unconscious, meaning that only himself and Lucas (because of the Courage Badge that was revealed to be a Franklin Badge) remain in the battle. The attack is unavoidable.
The Masked Man works for Porky Minch, the Pig King, as what he refers to as his "adorable little monster," and never says a word in the story onscreen. A Pigmask states to Lucas (who thought he was the Masked Man since he answered his phone) that he sounded "kind of cheery", possibly signalling that the Masked Man can, in fact, talk, though in an emotionless tone. The Masked Man is the final boss of MOTHER 3, rather than Porky Minch himself. Because of this, Porky has been the penultimate boss in both games he has appeared in.
The Masked Man is in reality, Claus, who was apparently discovered near the Drago Plateau by the Pigmask Army. He was brought back to consciousness and turned into a human chimera. It is unknown whether or not he was dead when found, though the implications point more toward being dead, as the Magypsies sensed no heart in him, and it's also impossible to hear his heartbeat in battle. During this time, Porky used him as a loyal servant and gave to him near full command of the Pigmask Army. While under the control of Porky, Claus's sense of self and memories had been forgotten and pushed deep inside of him.
At the end of the final battle with the Masked Man, after realizing his true identity and revealing himself as Claus, he fires an intense bolt of lightning at Lucas, purposely reflecting it off of Lucas's Franklin Badge, causing himself mortal damage and ultimately killing himself.

Alignment: Chaotic Good normally, Lawful Evil while controlled by Porky
Dimensionality: 3-D
Attack Potency: City Block level (Should be equal to, if not stronger than Lucas. Fought against him and his party members at the same time but lost.

Striking Strength: City Block Class (Can harm Lucas with physical attacks)

Combat Speed: FTL (Fought Lucas in a one on one battle in the end, who can avoid laser beams from the K9000. Should scale to Porky Minch, who fought the late-game Chosen Four)
Reaction Speed: FTL (Able to react to Lucas and his party members attacks, who were able to dodge laser beams from the K9000. Should scale to Porky Minch)
Stamina: Very High
Range: Standard Melee Range, Extended Melee with his sword. Hundreds of meters with PSI and his Arm canon.
Intelligence: Genius (Should be comparable to Lucas as they are twins. Capable enough to command the entire Pigmask Army and carry out Porky's plan of awakening the Dark Dragon. Was able to break free of Porky's control upon being reminded of his true identity)
Sword, Arm-canon, Mechanical Wings, Bombs
Standard Tactics: Always leads with Intense Bolt of Lightning. Will swing with his sword at his opponent and use PK Love along with his Arm cannon.
Weaknesses: If he is reminded of who he is, then he will stop fighting.
