~ Wish Rumple to Weaver.
Love has poisoned him. Love is a weakness and he's infected.
~ Wish Rumple to Henry Mills.

Rumplestiltskin is a major antagonist in Season 7 of the ABC TV Series, Once Upon A Time.

He is the version of Rumplestiltskin from the Wish Realm, created by Regina Mills' wish for Emma Swan to have never been the savior. Unlike, his main counterpart, he never experienced love from Belle French, meaning that he fully embraced his role as the Dark One.

Like his counterpart, he was portrayed by Robert Carlyse.

History[]

In the Wish Realm timeline he was never freed by the Dark Curse and remained trapped in his cell; which Snow and Charming moved into the Evil Queen's castle. He was left alone with just the Darkness to keep him company; unknowing of the fact that Belle was indirectly starved to death by the Evil Queen's defeat, thanks to Snow and Charming.

30 years later, Regina Mills of Storybrooke visited h8m and informed Wish Rumple of the truth of his existence. He advised her to be a villain to snap Emma out of the brainwashing the Queen's wish. After Regina managed to wake up Emma, they freed Rumple on the condition he find a magic bean for them to go back to Storybrooke. He did fulfill his deal, but Wish Robin Hood distracted them by attempting to hold them up; wasting the portal.

He later discovered Belle's bones and brought them to Regina, intending to torture her for the fate his love suffered. Regina pointed out she wasn't his version of the Evil Quenn, but Wish Rumple simply told her that he needed to punish someone. Thankfully Wish Robin freed them and they used rhe enchanted tree to escape back to Storybrooke.

Within two years, Wish Rumple took over his Realm and made everyone's life a living hell; eventually gaining the loyalty of Sir Henry, his grandson and an author due to the original Henry Mills having the powers. He promised to get him Regina and/or the Evil Queen to kill, so long as he wrote the Guardian powers were gone.

Wish Rumple went to Hyperion Heights, whwre he killed Dr. Facilier and tied up Weaver. He then kidnapped Ella and Lucy, so he would forced Henry to gain the author's quill. Henry, Regina, Rogers and Weaver all went to the Wish Realm. Wish Rumple was offered Weaver's Dagger, being told he may be the loophole to getting rid of his darkness; however it was a trap with squid ink. It didn't work as intended, resulting in Wish Rumple gathering everyone to see hus evil scheme succeed. With Weaver powerless, Wish Rumple imprisoned him with Rogers and Henry insisted a Snow globe with Ella and Lucy.

Wish Rumple attempted to use Sir Henry's anger to trap every hero in an unhappy ending all alone. However, Regina got him to let go and accept her as family. Weaver ultimately gave up his heart to Rogers, curing him of Gothel' poisoning and dying. Without the Darkness, Wish Rumple turned to dust.

It's unknown what became of Wish Rumple after his death but given that Weaver was granted access to Mount Olympus (the OUAT universe's equivalent to Heaven) it can be assumed that Wish Rumple likely ended up in the Worse Place (the OUAT universe's equivalent to Hell).

Personality[]

Well, I find that really insulting. I mean, I'm the worst version of me.
~ Wish Rumple, killing Dr. Facilier

He was once much like Mr. Gold but without the love of Belle, he submitted to the Darkness entirely and became a truly evil person. He has no real desire to do anything but make everyone miserable and live horrible lives; though this may just be how he expresses his pain over Belle. The whole "if I can't be happy, no one can".

He hates his other self for letting go of their power and choosing to be better. Even calling him weak.

Weaknesses[]

  • Symbiotic Link with the original Darkness: Wish Rumple can only be the Dark One so long as his counterpart is the Dark One.

Trivia[]

  • It's worth noting that Wish Rumple turned to dust when Weaver purified his darkness and died, rather than just be de-powered. Showing this was the fate that would have befallen Mr. Gold if he hadn't stopped the Darkness from eating away at the love in his heart; having truly become one with the Darkness.
