When [[Riku]] first arrives in La Cité des Cloches, he crosses paths with Esmeralda, who is being chased by both Phoebus and Frollo. Phoebus asks Riku if he has "seen a gypsy woman", but the Keyblade wielder tells him he has not. Phoebus reports this to Frollo, after which the judge questions his abilities. | When [[Riku]] first arrives in La Cité des Cloches, he crosses paths with Esmeralda, who is being chased by both Phoebus and Frollo.

Frollo is a wicked, self-righteous man who seeks to maintain law and order in La Cité des Cloches by any means. Viewing himself as virtuous and on the side of God, Frollo wishes to bring others to justice, claiming his evil deeds are justified as being of divine will. One method by which he executes "righteous judgment" is by using the Wargoyle and other Dream Eaters. It is through fulfilling his wicked acts and punishments that Frollo becomes blind to his own faults. | Frollo is a wicked, self-righteous man who seeks to maintain law and order in La Cité des Cloches by any means.

Frollo first appeared in Victor Hugo's classic novel, ''Notre-Dame de Paris'', where he is the Archdeacon of Paris and the novel's tragic villain. His Disney debut was in the 1996 adaptation, ''The Hunchback of Notre Dame'', where he was changed from a tragic figure to a fully-fledged villain. Voiced by {{w|Tony Jay}}, this version is the Minister of Justice of Paris, and apparently the ruler or Governor of the city, given that he seems to be above every law in the city outside the cathedral, and even has his own army of thugs who dress up as soldiers to enforce his will. In the film, Frollo murders Quasimodo's mother outside Notre Dame and is forced by the Archdeacon to raise the child as atonement, an act Frollo only performs to save himself from damnation and in hopes of finding the gypsy stronghold, the Court of Miracles. | Frollo first appeared in Victor Hugo's classic novel, ''Notre-Dame de Paris'', where he is the Archdeacon of Paris and the novel's tragic villain.
