Formerly known as Paquette Guybertaut a.k.a Paquette Chantefleurie, Esméralda's mother. Originally a prostitute from Rheims. She longed for a child. She gave birth to a daughter she named Agnes but, Agnes was spirited away by Gypsies and a deformed child was left in Agnes' place. Paquette became a sachette, a nun who locks herself away and constantly prays. She thinks she hates Esméralda because she feels strong emotions and because Esméralda is a gypsy she just assumes it's hate that she feels instead of motherly love.
