Multiple Imperium Guards patrolling the Security Station carried their Claw Staffs, with some using them to engage Lloyd in combat after his identity was exposed.

Mindless Beasts[]

Multiple Imperium Guards wielded Claw Staffs in battle against Lloyd and Wyldfyre.

I Will Be the Danger[]

Imperium Guards used their Claw Staffs in battle against the dragons released by Lloyd and Wyldfyre, but with little effect.

The Calm Inside[]

Melvin picked up his Claw Staff and entered the Security Station with the weapon. Several other guards carried Claw Staffs as they patrolled the city.

The Battle of the Second Monastery[]

Empress Beatrix carried a Claw Staff after the end of the Battle of the Second Monastery. Beatrix inadvertently activated the weapon when she angrily slammed it against the ground, blasting a hole in the interior of the Monastery of Imperium and nearly crushing Rapton.

They Call It Doom[]

Dorama's stagehands used their Claw Staffs as they fought against Kai and Wyldfyre at the Lava-Tide Village.

Absolute Power[]

After seeing the Heat blast, Imperium Guards went to check it alongside with their Claw Staffs, only to be defeated by the ninja. When the ninja entered the City of Imperium, Imperium Guards ambushed them with their Claw Staffs alongside the Imperium Teen Protection Force, only for them to reveal that they are actually on the ninja's side and defeat the guards.

We Are All Dragons[]

As the Imperians marched on the Imperium Palace, Imperium Guards got ready to defend themselves with their Claw Staffs. While Beatrix was being insulted by some of the Imperians, two Imperium Guards came to protect her with their Claw Staffs.

Trivia[]

• The Claw Staffs heavily resemble man catchers, pole weapons used by 18th-Century European law enforcement to non-lethally capture and contain a suspect with relative ease, usually from off of horses.
• In the show, the Claw Staffs have a similar aesthetic as the Icon of the Source Dragon of Strength, with similar colors and the exact same handle stick design.
  • A possible explanation for this resemblance is that they are both weapons that were designed for the Imperium villain faction.
