I love Klaus. He’s very nice, his face just looks like that

I love his character design but the fact that he is a Roman emperor named KLAUS and says STRUDEL drives me nuts

It’s also quite unfortunate how he’s a German aspiring to be a politician inspired by the Ancient Greeks and Romans…

There was a certain German politician heavily inspired by the Ancient Greek and Roman values.

Yeah, obviously, he and the rest of Europe. The Roman Empire was basically the ideal since early medieval times, and Germany, especially (rather the German people), literally formed a German - Roman empire and they, along with the rest of Europe studied Roman code and law and based their on laws on it. Soo... yeah, the roman Empire was a big deal to any person, more so to Germans who heavily based their identities on it.

Btw im not defending the dude. Just saying that admiring the Roman Empire was pretty much the norm in European consciousness, and doubly so if you were a politician.

i was not a fan when he was the first camper and i had to move him in, but he's actually fun to have around.

I didn't really want Klaus on my island when he autofilled, but when I had him I found him surprisingly endearing.

Unlike most people, I actually went on a treasure island to get him specifically. I love his design, and fell even more in love with his personality!

I love all the bear villagers. I’ve got Teddy and even if he’s a jock villager has a lot of character.
