She was the only human character in the film, for the first half, to ever show kindness towards the deformed and naïve Quasimodo. Even when she is finally captured, and seconds away from death, she remained fiercely defiant, knowing her worth, and refusing to degrade herself by surrendering to Frollo.Īside from this fiery nature, Esmeralda is ultimately a kind, loving selfless soul underneath. This would only erupt Frollo's tyranny further, but Esmeralda was not one to sacrifice her freedom for the sake of Frollo's suppression. Due to this, she was often the target of arrest, but as mentioned above, Esmeralda is a cunning, independent character, who was shown to have the talent of outsmarting and evading Frollo's grasp time and time again, despite the number of odds against her. She was the sole individual in all of France to downright rebel against Frollo during his reign and was openly against the judge's accusations of claiming the Romani culture to be a gang of thieves who engage in unholy practices of witchcraft. Letting the crowd torture that poor boy? I thought if just one person could stand up to him then.” ―Esmerelda to the ArchdeaconĮsmeralda is verbally powerful, street-wise, cunning, positive and morale and smart.
