Isn't Quasimodo a gypsy? If so, he would be darker. Discuss.

But he was born a Gypsy.

Some people will credit it to partial albinism, which they'll say was part of his deformity. It makes sense to me.

Hmm... it sort of makes sense, but he isnt PALE, just white.

Maybe he had a white father. I'm not sure if any of those guys in the boat were his dad. They never say.

That is a VERY good theory, Erised.
Maybe, and this is NOT to sound harsh or judgmental, but maybe his mother slept around for some extras coins, therefore getting a disease that deformed her child.

Or maybe being in the bell tower for so long caused him to be very pale or something...

If an African American stayed in a room for his whole life, it would not change his genetic skin color. So the debate lives on...

We never know that she's actually his mother- she could have found him abandoned somewhere and picked him up, feeling bad for him the way Frollo felt bad for him in the book. 'Course, in the book it makes about as much sense, since he was switched with Esme- she's supposed to be white. Well, he could have been found by the Gypsies too, I suppose.
Yeah, it's confusing.

We never know that his father was a gypsy...and having not read the novel, I can also wonder if the woman was *really* his mother as well. Perhaps he was abandoned and she found him. Who knows? Does anyone know if the book specifies whether or not he is really a gypsy?
