Role in Case(s)
Klaus was first spoken to after the team found and analyzed a symbol found on a candle, which according to Armand Dupont is some sort of spell. The player and Jack Archer could not find him at first, but he frightened Jack when he popped up. Klaus went on about seeing many things, so Jack thought they were not going to get much out of him at that time; so they simply left for the time being.

Klaus was spoken to again regarding a scroll found on a carrier pigeon saying that the Prince was dead. An analysis from Elliot Clayton revealed that Klaus was the one who sent it. The monk explained that once he heard of Prince Albert's death, he sent a message to a fellow believer to celebrate the news. Klaus felt that the Prince represented everything evil in the country, which was why he needed to be destroyed. Jack believed that was a confession to him killing the Prince, but Klaus said he was not a killer but a messenger.

Brother Klaus was revealed to be innocent after the team incarcerated Enid Grimshaw, but was spoken to again about the blackmail letter that was sent to Enid to kill the Prince. When shown the blackmail letter, Klaus reveal it was from a book called the Manuscript, and demanded that he be given the letter. Jack proceeded to arrest the monk until he revealed who wrote the note to Enid. However Klaus had to be let go on account of a lack of strong evidence, plus an expensive lawyer was paid for to represent him. Jack became suspicious of him since he did not expect someone like Klaus to afford an expensive lawyer, and opted to keep an eye on him for the time being.
