Appearances
The Hunchback of Notre Dame
They first appear arresting a group of Gypsies ordered by Judge Claude Frollo, who is their leader. They also appear in the Festival of Fools where two of them start a riot on Quasimodo who attended the Festival by accident. Esmeralda helps Quasimodo and puts the torture to a stop. When Esmeralda escapes into Notre Dame, Phoebus follows her but refuses to arrest her due to his permission to stop the torture on Quasimodo granted. When Frollo and his soldiers attempt to drag her outside of Notre Dame but force to leave by an enraged Archdeacon who warned Frollo not to touch her and Frollo orders them to guard every door. After Esmeralda escape from Notre Dame they arrest a group of Gypsies and attempt to murder an innocent family.
Phoebus saves them and they attempt to execute him but the latter is rescued by Esmeralda. Frollo then orders them to burn Paris to the ground and they search everywhere and still no sign of her. At the Court of Miracles they and Frollo captured Clopin, Esmeralda, Djali, Phoebus, Quasimodo, and a group of gypsies. They also chained Quasimodo on the Bell tower to make sure he "stays there". During the execution of Esmeralda, an enraged Quasimodo rescues her after she passes out; two soldiers attempt to stop him but he swings a torch at them knocking them down and yells for Sanctuary. Frollo orders his soldiers to break down the door. Phoebus breaks free from his cage and rallies the citizens of Paris and French army to attack and free Clopin, Djali and the other gypsies from their cages. They tried to hold the citizens of Paris and French soldiers back but were defeated. After Frollo's death they surrendered and were likely arrested by the French army or most likely have reformed and rejoined.
