* AdaptationalVillainy: Granted, he was already Disney's darkest villain in canon, but he never tried to [[TheUsurper overthrow a king and enslave his daughter]], or to break Quasimodo by killing all his friends as slowly and as painfully as possible THEN torturing him until he's so broken he'll beg for death.

* ZeroPercentApprovalRating: Practically no-one in Corona likes Frollo. As far as King Henri thinks, though, the Minister of Justice is not supposed to be popular, [[NecessarilyEvil he's just supposed to do his job]].

You're not done roasting."

* ActionGirl
* DoesNotLikeShoes: As per the film. In the next fic, she sometimes has to wear shoes while being formal, and finds them uncomfortable.
* DyingDeclarationOfLove: At Gothel's encouraging, Rapunzel calls out to Quasimodo that she loves him right before she dies of smoke inhalation on the stake. [[spoiler: [[DisneyDeath She gets better]]. Later.]]
* GirlInTheTower
* IJustWantToBeFree
* WhipItGood: She learns her skills with her hair translate well to using a whip. By the next fic, she had the whip destroyed because it was used by Frollo to punish Quasi, and got a new one.






* GoodOldFisticuffs: Quasimodo's fighting style. This is also how Phoebus and Eugene fight when disarmed.
* HeroesWantRedheads: Inverted. He is the red-haired hero, and the blonde [[spoiler: (actually brunette)]] Rapunzel is his love interest.
* IJustWantToBeFree
* IWillShowYouX: As Frollo's guards siege the Eglise Soliel, Quasimodo tells Gothel he'll show them a "monster".
-->"All my life people told me I'm a monster. If they want a monster so bad, [[LetsGetDangerous I figure it's about time I give them one]]."
* RagsToRoyalty: During the story, Quasimodo goes from living in the cathedral bell tower as an outcast to [[spoiler:living in the palace as the princess' consort.]]
* TookALevelInBadass: Quasimodo in the climax.






* AbusiveParent
* AdaptationalHeroism: Unlike her canon counterpart, [[spoiler:she grows to love Rapunzel]] and ends up [[spoiler:sacrificing her life to save her from Frollo]].
* BargainWithHeaven: [[spoiler:She makes one with Soleil, exchanging the extra years of life she has taken to bring Rapunzel back to life.]]
* DiesDifferentlyInAdaptation: [[spoiler: She dies from relinquishing her remaining life-force to Lord Soleil in order to revive Rapunzel, then tackles Frollo over the balcony while ageing to death, letting herself fall once he dies first. In ''Tangled'' canon, she dies when Eugene cuts Rapunzel's hair and she starts rapidly ageing, then Pascal trips her up with a length of Rapunzel's hair so that she falls out the tower window.]] In both cases, however, she crumbles to powder before she reaches the ground.
* FaceDeathWithDignity: [[spoiler:She willingly sacrifices her life and calmly tells Quasi she is no longer afraid of death before dying.]]
* LoveRedeems: [[spoiler: Her love for Rapunzel causes her to reject Frollo, apologize for all the pain she's caused and ultimately sacrifice her life to save Rapunzel's.]]
* RedemptionEqualsDeath: [[spoiler:She gives up the magic keeping her young to save Rapunzel's life and she ages to death.]]
* TakingYouWithMe: [[spoiler:She throws herself and Frollo off the cathedral at the end.]]






* ZeroPercentApprovalRating: Practically no-one in Corona likes Frollo. As far as King Henri thinks, though, the Minister of Justice is not supposed to be popular, [[NecessarilyEvil he's just supposed to do his job.]] [[spoiler: Of course, Henri himself stops approving of Frollo once he tries to usurp the king at the end.]]
* AbusiveParent
* AdaptationalVillainy: Granted, he was already Disney's darkest villain in canon, but he never tried to [[TheUsurper overthrow a king and enslave his daughter.]]
* ChurchGoingVillain: As in the movie, he is a devout follower of his faith and a corrupt hypocrite.
* DiesDifferentlyInAdaptation: [[spoiler: In Disney canon, he dies when the gargoyle he's standing on to behead Esmeralda gives way below his feet and he falls, still clinging to it, into the lake of liquid copper surrounding Notre Dame. Here, the afore-mentioned Mother Gothel tackles him over the balcony, he grabs a gargoyle to save himself, but Lord Soleil himself makes the gargoyle burn Frollo's fingers so that he carries on falling, and he lands on the [[HoistByHisOwnPetard burning stake he tried to kill Gothel and Rapunzel on in the first place.]] Couldn't have happened to a nicer guy.]]
* EvilHasABadSenseOfHumour: When he's about to [[spoiler:force Gothel to choose between him or the stakes he's going to burn her and Rapunzel on otherwise]], Frollo replies to Gothel's taunt of "bite me" with "Not yet, my dear. You're not done roasting." That's nearly as atrocious as his "Whip my men into shape" quip to Phoebus in canon([[DontExplainTheJoke you know, 'cause he's having his former captain of the guards literally ''whipped'' only a few feet away from Phoebus]])
* {{Hypocrite}}: Frollo, as per canon. He wants to take the throne of Corona to get rid of all those he considers criminals, but he's willing to [[TradingBarsForStripes recruit the Stabbington Brothers, ACTUAL criminals, as his personal guardsmen.]]
* IfICantHaveYou: As per canon, Frollo tries doing this with his lust object (in this case, Gothel instead of Esmeralda), [[spoiler: but he also tries it with Rapunzel, who has just cut and de-powered her hair, to ensure that he can't use its youth-restoring abilities to be [[ImmortalRuler an immortal tyrant of Corona.]] In contrast to Esmeralda, Rapunzel actually does die on the stake. Temporarily..]]
* KnightTemplar: Frollo plans to seize the kingdom to purify it from sin.
* PoliticallyIncorrectVillain: As per canon, Frollo. In this case, though, his antiziganism is downplayed(because not every hero in this story is Romani), while his misogyny is played up (the way he treats Gothel, Rapunzel, and Queen Susanne).
* VillainRevealsTheSecret: [[spoiler: Frollo reveals to Rapunzel that she's [[ReallyRoyaltyReveal the Lost Princess]], and her "mother" stole her from the cradle as a baby. Naturally, she doesn't take it well.]]






* CompositeCharacter: Apart from taking the role of [[spoiler: Esmeralda's eventual Love Interest]] from Captain Phoebus, he also takes the place of Quasimodo's gargoyle friends as the singer of ''A Guy Like You'', since by this point Quasimodo's left the cathedral behind after stealing Rapunzel's crown.
* GoodOldFisticuffs: This is also how he fights when disarmed.






* ActionGirl
* AmbiguouslyBi: Instead of getting very close to Frollo when she's doing her sensual dance at the Festival of Fools, she has an AlmostKiss with ''Queen Susanne herself''. And then she kisses her nose before vacating the Queen's lap. Certainly King Henri's rather amused by his wife's bashfulness. It's possible that Esmeralda was just putting on a show for the audience, but we know she definitely likes men, [[spoiler:because she falls for Flynn/Eugene over the course of the story.]]
* CoolBigSis: How Rapunzel sees her.
* DanceBattler: Her fighting style is described as very fluid and dance-like.
* DoesNotLikeShoes
* SingleWomanSeeksGoodMan: She only falls for Eugene once he stops being a self-centered thief and starts caring for other people. [[spoiler: They get married by the end of the story.]]






* ButtMonkey: He goes through a lot of abuse catching up to Quasi's group. Needless to say, by the time he does so, he is not pleased.
* GoodOldFisticuffs: This is also how he fights when disarmed.
* MyGreatestFailure: More like, My Father's Greatest Failure. His father was the Captain of the Guard when Gothel stole the baby Rapunzel. Frollo uses this to belittle him quite a few times.
* RedeemingReplacement: [[spoiler:He replaces Frollo as the Minister of Justice at the end of the story, and he proves to be a better man.]]
* ToBeLawfulOrGood: He deals with this dilemma when he finally catches up with Rapunzel, Quasi, Esmeralda and Eugene.
* YourApprovalFillsMeWithShame: He has this internal reaction anytime Frollo praises him.






* AdaptationalIntelligence: In the original ''Tangled'', the Stabbington Brothers are basically [[DumbMuscle thugs]] who Flynn and Gothel are able to effortlessly manipulate and betray. Here, they're pretty intelligent in their own right, observing Quasimodo's athletic skills while he's escaping the guards, and deciding to recruit him as their agent in stealing the crown instead of Flynn Rider. Additionally, they are able to manipulate Quasimodo into agreeing to their plans by appealing to his bitterness at being humiliated by the people of Corona so that he will want revenge; and later on, they convince Frollo to let them guide him to Clopin's hideout at the Snuggly Duckling Inn by telling him that if he tortures them for information, they can lie to him. Indeed, Frollo is so impressed by their boldness and cunning that he recruits the Brothers as his right-hand men. That said, [[SmugSnake they're not as intelligent as they think they are]]. If they hadn't discussed their plans to betray Quasimodo and kill him as soon as he delivers the crown to them within earshot of Quasi himself, he'd never have abandoned them and taken the crown with him. Granted, they didn't know he was there, but still...
* CompositeCharacter: They take the place of the [[FatAndSkinny Brutish and Oafish Guards]] from ''The Hunchback of Notre Dame''.
* EvilRedhead
* FauxAffablyEvil: They fake friendliness to Quasimodo in order to convince him into stealing Rapunzel's crown for them, but once he finds out they were using him and abandons them, they're a lot less friendly by the next time they meet.
* NamedByTheAdaptation: They're called Drake and Fletcher.












* CompositeCharacter: He appears to be combined with Phoebus's horse Achilles. [[spoiler:Though Achilles does show up in the DistantFinale as Eugene's horse.]]

Added DiffLines:

* HorribleJudgeOfCharacter: Downplayed with King Henri. He knows that Frollo is not a popular Minister of Justice, but he thinks he's still a reliable man to do his job. He never expects Frollo to betray him and try stealing the throne.
* NamedByTheAdaptation: The King and Queen are named Henri and Susanne; at the time the story was written, they were [[NoNameGiven unnamed]] until they're revealed to be Frederic and Arianna in ''WesternAnimation/TangledTheSeries''.
* PetTheDog: When Frollo remarks his disgust towards Esmeralda dancing, the Queen defends her saying the gypsy's having some fun. Then, as if thanking her in her own way, [[AmbiguouslyBi Esmeralda sat on the Queen's lap and kiss her on the nose]] (which she did with Frollo in the original film).
