==Appearance==
==Appearance==
Victor is the tallest of the three gargoyles and by far the most refined and intelligent. He is also rather muscular, coloured a blue shade of grey, and sports two large wings on his back.
Laverne is a bit more lanky than than her other two friends, having trouble moving and appears older and wiser than them due to the sound of her voice being elderly. Her stone body is tan, making her easier to tell apart from her two compatriots. She has small horns and "winkles" above her eyes, showing age. Her wings are mid-way in size between Hugo and Victor's.


Hugo is the stockiest of the three and sports two sharp horns on the top of his head pointing upwards and two tiny wings. He also appears somewhat porcine, shown by his pig-like nose and hands. He is coloured a green shade of grey.
Victor is the tallest and physically fit of the trio. He is made of light blue stone. His eyes appear sunken in. His wings are the largest of the trio. His horns are slightly bigger than Laverne's.


Laverne is the oldest gargoyle and the only female of the trio. She is coloured reddish pink and sports two cone-like horns on her head and average-sized wings on her back. She is also a frequent resting place for pigeons, much to her dismay.
Hugo is the shortest and pudgiest of the gargoyle trio; he resembles a pig, with a snout proving said example. Unlike his other friends, he has hooves instead of fingers. His horns are the longest of the trip and his arms are rather stubby.

Appearance

Laverne is a bit more lanky than than her other two friends, having trouble moving and appears older and wiser than them due to the sound of her voice being elderly. Her stone body is tan, making her easier to tell apart from her two compatriots. She has small horns and "winkles" above her eyes, showing age. Her wings are mid-way in size between Hugo and Victor's.

Victor is the tallest and physically fit of the trio. He is made of light blue stone. His eyes appear sunken in. His wings are the largest of the trio. His horns are slightly bigger than Laverne's.

Hugo is the shortest and pudgiest of the gargoyle trio; he resembles a pig, with a snout proving said example. Unlike his other friends, he has hooves instead of fingers. His horns are the longest of the trip and his arms are rather stubby.

Obviously, Victor and Hugo's names are a reference to the author himself, while Laverne is named after Laverne Andrews of The Andrews Sisters.

In the film, the three gargoyles serve as Quasimodo's friends and guardians during his time growing up inside the attics of Notre Dame, although whether or not they are truly alive or not is often questioned, demonstrated when they only come to life when alone with Quasimodo and how Frollo appears not to know about them being alive.
