Quasimodo is a character who makes his debut in the series in Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance, along with his homeworld. He is the deformed but kind-hearted bellringer of Notre Dame cathedral, and the foster-son of Judge Claude Frollo.
Development
Quasimodo's first appearance is in the TGS 2011 trailer, in which he is shown holding an unconscious Esmeralda and offering to aid Riku against a massive Dream Eater inside Notre Dame. Further screenshots show him interacting with Esmeralda and Riku, implying that he may be more friendly with them than Sora, with whom he has not been seen yet.
Appearance
Known as the "Hunchback of Notre Dame", Quasimodo is a genetically deformed young man, defined by the hunch on his back, along with a lump above his left eye and his massive central incisor. He is most frequently seen in a green shirt, black trousers and brown shoes.
Origin
Though Quasimodo's very first appearance was in 1831 in Victor Hugo's novel, Notre-Dame de Paris, this incarnation of the character first appears in the 1996 film, The Hunchback of Notre Dame, in which he is raised by Judge Claude Frollo inside the cathedral and forbidden from ever leaving, on the basis that such a heartless society would never accept him. Frollo's words almost come true when Quasimodo does sneak out to attend the Festival of Fools, where he is ridiculed and tortured by the peasantry until a kind-hearted gypsy girl, Esmeralda, defies Frollo and defends Quasimodo from the cruel crowd. Quasimodo begins to fall in love with Esmeralda, and it is this love that leads him to rebel against Frollo's tyranny, which ultimately leads to a showdown between Quasimodo and Frollo atop the balconies of Notre Dame. Following Frollo's demise, Quasimodo is hailed a hero and accepted into the society at last.
Trivia
- Quasimodo was the very first new Disney character confirmed to appear in Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance.
