Appearance

Clopin, as a Romani is a tan-skinned man with shoulder-length black hair, black eyes, a long nose, and a black beard. Clopin has two main outfits The first is his jester-like costume, which includes a fuchsia mask with yellow trimming. The color scheme of this outfit is violet, fuchsia, and yellow. He also has a cowl with gold bells on the ends. On his leggings, one leg is purple, while the other is bright purple with vertical gold stripes. His outfit while in The Court of Miracles is darker in tone, with the cowl being purple and ragged, the mask notably absent, and the leggings solidly purple. There is very little gold trimming. For both outfits, Clopin wears curled-toed shoes, black gloves, an earring on his left ear, and a large-brimmed purple hat, which is slightly torn and has a large yellow feather fixed to the top.

ABILITIES

Clopin is a talented performer and storyteller, never failing to keep his audience's attention. He is gifted in ventriloquism. He is able to perform many acrobatic feats, as well as magic tricks and split-second costume changes. He is also gifted in singing. He is also a skilled leader whose people look up to him and follow his lead without question. As the emcee of the Feast of Fools, he is able to command and direct crowds of non-Roma who, under most circumstances, would otherwise be hostile toward him. He is very good with the children he entertains with his puppet shows, and he is able to put them at ease despite their parents' misgivings about the Roma.

Gipsy/ Romani

Him and his people are called Gypsy as a slur by people who hate them but they are actually called Romani so it's a surprise when someone knows him as Romani instead of Gipsy

Personality

Clopin is unusual for a prominent Disney character because of his neutrality toward both good and evil. One moment he is performing street theater for children, then he dances throughout town as the Feast of Fools celebration is underway, and the next, he is about to hang someone. He maintains a rather macabre sense of humor, such as when arranging the hanging of Quasimodo and Phoebus, frequently using head puns and other jokes. He uses puppets and street theater to tell stories, sometimes using one of himself which he will argue within jest, and ultimately always overrules. Clopin has a great deal of knowledge, throughout Paris,cause he must have plenty of contacts. Clopin is also very caring towards his people and loves children.
