(Semi-canon sidestories)
Claus (クラウス Kurausu ) (d.1998) was a German mercenary recruited by the Umbrella Biohazard Countermeasure Service. He perished during the Raccoon City Destruction Incident.[1]
Biography[]
In September 1998, the UBCS was sent into Raccoon City to deal with a t-Virus outbreak. Claus led a squad by HUMVEE into the city, with Roger, Norman, Ed and Robert under him.
Working with Roger, a Monitor, Claus' squad was given a special mission in locating and evacuating Dr. Cameron, a senior company researcher. Though they were able to track her to a municipal warehouse for food storage, Cameron had already mutated considerably from her infection with a mutant t-Virus strain, and had to be killed. Though their mission was now effectively over, the unexpected detection of her location at her underground lab had the squad drive off in search of her. Having already lost Robert, Claus became angry at Roger when they reached the lab to find the mission was simply to retrieve Cameron's research data. The squad was soon attacked by another mutant infected with Cameron's virus, forcing Claus to run from it in the sewers. By the time he reached the surface, Norman was dead and Ed and Roger were infected.
After a short chase from Ed, avoiding his tentacles, Claus was picked up by Roger in the HUMVEE, and he mowed Ed down with its machine gun turret. Heading into the shotgun seat to recover, Claus was shocked to find Roger had mutated to grow Cameron's face on his head, and began stabbing him with his tentacles before destroying his skull.
Further notes[]
- Claus' U.B.C.S. uniform is similar to the one Mikhail wore in Resident Evil 3.
- Like the rest of the U.B.C.S, Claus carries a SIG Pro SP2009. He uses it as his main weapon, just like Nikolai Zinoviev.
- Claus shares physical similarities to Jack Krauser, possibly being his original designs.
