On Rumplestiltskin:
On Mr. Gold:
Fairytale Bio
Gnomish, intense, and crazy, he’s the malevolent trickster who can spin straw into gold and prefers his payment in the form of firstborn children. An expert on black magic and the dark arts, this creature has wizardly powers to make him a fair match for anyone in the land... even the Evil Queen.
In spite of all this, Snow White and Prince Charming have managed to capture him and to keep him imprisoned in their dungeon. He agrees to help Snow and Charming counteract the Evil Queen’s curse-to-end-all-curses, but in return he wants to know the name of their unborn child. And Snow and Charming are just desperate enough to give it to him.

"Rumplestiltskin is fun to play... it takes me back to my childhood."

On Mr. Gold:
Storybrooke Bio
Almost every small town has a wealthy resident whose influence seems to know no limit. In Storybrooke, that guy is Mr. Gold. From real estate to politics and even into the personal lives of his neighbors, Gold’s knowledge and involvement is virtually infinite. In fact, he’s got his hands in so many goings-on about town that it’s downright creepy. According to the local Innkeeper, Gold “owns the town”. A number of the citizens of Storybrooke actually appear to be more intimidated by him than they are by Regina.
Gold also owns and operates the local pawnshop, where he spends most of his days curating the various items he has collected over the years and making deals with the townsfolk. Always cool and attired with a cosmopolitan sartorial flair, Mr. Gold exudes the kind of confidence that only comes from knowing you are the master of your domain. But how much does he know?
