Baron Wulfenbach is the reluctant tyrant of much of Europa. While he has functioned as the primary antagonist throughout the series and has been Agatha's foil, his character is quite complex. From all evidence so far, his only surviving family members are his very talented adult son, Gilgamesh, and a mysteriously absent wife, about whom he is quite closemouthed. The Baron himself is a construct. The rules of succession of the Fifty Families may therefore make him ineligible to inherit or retain his title... but he's ruling anyway. The circumstances leading to Klaus's reassembly have not been revealed at this time, but what is known is that the late Baron and Baroness Wulfenbach (re)created their heir from their three sons.

| - Baron Wulfenbach is the reluctant tyrant of much of Europa. While he has functioned as the primary antagonist throughout the series and has been Agatha's foil, his character is quite complex. From all evidence so far, his only surviving family members are his very talented adult son, Gilgamesh, and a mysteriously absent wife, about whom he is quite closemouthed. The Baron himself is a construct. The rules of succession of the Fifty Families may therefore make him ineligible to inherit or retain his title... but he's ruling anyway. The circumstances leading to Klaus's reassembly have not been revealed at this time, but what is known is that the late Baron and Baroness Wulfenbach (re)created their heir from their three sons. The Baron is one of the most powerful Sparks of his generation. He would much prefer to be off exercising his gift by studying the nature of the Spark instead of engaging in politics, but he sees it as his duty to maintain the Pax Transylvania because he's the only one who can. However, his methods are slightly different from those his best friends, Bill and Barry Heterodyne, used to establish peace prior to their disappearance. While the Heterodynes aimed for more mutually cooperative politics based on diplomacy and second chances, Klaus has had far less patience for those who show themselves to be hostile or uncooperative. He maintains this "overgrown kindergarten situation" with a stern and exasperated hand. Accordingly, the Baron's core policy for keeping peace and order in his empire can be summarized as "Don't make me come over there."
