Esmeralda was originally the titular character and one of the main protagonists in the 1831 novel ''Notre-Dame de Paris'' by Victor Hugo, but this incarnation of the character appeared for the first time in the 1996 adaptation, ''The Hunchback of Notre Dame''. She first makes herself known when she meets Quasimodo at the Festival of Fools and is the only one not repulsed by his deformed appearance, but she manages to land herself in trouble with the "law" by defending Quasimodo against a riot Judge Claude Frollo had deliberately refused to stop. When she openly defies Frollo, she becomes a fugitive and hides inside Notre Dame to avoid capture by Frollo's soldier-like thugs. | Esmeralda was originally the titular character and one of the main protagonists in the 1831 novel ''Notre-Dame de Paris'' by Victor Hugo, but this incarnation of the character appeared for the first time in the 1996 adaptation, ''The Hunchback of Notre Dame''.
