==Summary==
Rumplestiltskin, also nicknamed Rumple, is one of the main characters of Once Upon a Time.
Rumple was once a normal man turned evil by the Dark One's magic. After losing his son, he became obsessed with making deals, and, more so, collecting in on them, most of which aided his ultimate goal of being reunited with Baelfire. In the town of Storybrooke, Maine, after the casting of the Dark Curse, Rumplestiltskin lives as Mr. Gold, the enigmatic owner of the local pawn shop, as well as the town itself. Gold remains aware of his life before the curse and plays a key role in breaking it so that he can leave town and find Bae, with his need to satisfy revenge often getting in his own way and leading to events such as him providing the town with magic, which he views as power. However, unforeseen circumstances lead to Baelfire's death, and Rumple is left at a loss. His thirst for power could be his undoing, threatening dearly the relationship he has with his true love Belle.

Attack Potency: At least Building level physically (Able to break a neck with a single hand. Easily defeated Charming. Killed Beowulf, who could withstand attacks from ogres, by snapping his neck). At least Island level+ (Far superior to Zelena, Regina, Emma and Cora. Stronger than all the Queens of Darkness together, which includes Ursula, who was stronger than Poseidon), likely Large Country level (Should be superior to Ingrid and comparable to other Dark Ones such as Nimue and to Merlin) with magic | At least Large Country level, likely higher with magic (One of the most powerful beings in the OUAT verse. Stronger than Jafar, who could wipe Agrabah off this earth; Ingrid, who froze all of Arendelle; The Evil Queen, who created Storybrooke with the Dark Curse; Peter Pan, who had control over all Neverland; Ursula, who controlled a whole sea; Merlin, the first wizard and the Black Fairy. The Author admitted that he was the most dangerous of all characters of the storybook. Even respected, and somehow feared, by a deity like Hades, who describes him as a "worthy rival to his hot throne." Much more powerful than virtually any amount of fairy dust, which even with a small amount could do this). Can ignore conventional durability with Heart Extraction, Transmutation, Fire Manipulation, Petrification, Smite, Death Manipulation, Matter Manipulation and others abilities | At least Star level (Used a piece of the Olympian Crystal to become one with all the magic of Storybrooke, and as such should be far superior to the genies, which are capable of creating entire alternative realms). Can ignore conventional durability with Heart Extraction, Transmutation, Existence Erasure and others abilities | At least Star level (Merlin claimed that an unrestricted Dark One would pose a threat to any realm. Comparable to an unrestricted Black Fairy, who could transcend the Laws of Magic and destroy every realm) | At least Solar System level (Created hundreds of realms with a mere hand motion)
Speed: At least Subsonic+ (Faster than Nimue)
Lifting Strength: At least Class 25 with Telekinesis (Superior to Regina)
Striking Strength: At least Building level | Unknown
Durability: At least Island level+, likely Large Country level (Comparable to Merlin) | At least Island level+, likely Large Country level physically (Superior to Merlin and any other Dark One in history). At least Large Country level with shields and protective charms (His defensive magic should be somehow comparable to his offensive, as they share the same source. Also superior to the entirety of fairies, which together created a shield capable of holding him back for a while) | Potentially Solar System level with shields and protective charms (Drains power from the Olympian Crystal, which needs the full power of an Olympian god to be broken and/or repaired) | Unknown | Likely Solar System level with shields and protective charms (His defensive magic should be somehow comparable to his offensive, as they share the same source)
Stamina: Extremely high (The power of the Darkness keeps the Dark One energized and thus they don't need sleep and don't suffer from sleep deprivation)
Range: Tens of kilometres with regular magic (Able to affect entire cities at once), at least Countrywide with Transmutation (Far superior to the Witch who was going to turn an entire kingdom into bears. Turned The Apprentice into a mouse from across a country); Low Multiversal with teleportation and BFR (Can teleport himself and others to almost anywhere there's magic for him to tap into, including separate realms) | At least Planetary with regular magic (Has become the source of magic of his respective realm and can control it at will); Low Multiversal with teleportation and BFR (Can do the same as before) | Same | At least Low Multiversal with regular magic (At least as powerful as the Author's quill, which can affect different realities. Can cross realms with teleportation)
Standard Equipment: The Dark One's Dagger, Magic Gauntlet, Crystal Ball, Memory Potions, True Love Potion, Dark Curse, Pandora's Box, The Urn, Fairy Godmother's wand, Black Fairy's wand, The Sorcerer's hat | Excalibur, The Dark One's Dagger, Sands of Morpheus, Shears of Destiny | The Olympian Crystal, Pandora's Box | None notable | None notable
Intelligence: Genius (He has an extreme knowledge and understanding of spells, potions, and other topics related to magic, allowing him to do impossible things for common magic users. Created many spells and charms and was also able to put True Love into a bottle. Could see the difference between a true and a false magical page when nobody else could. So smart that he could change the purpose of the Dark Curse, and made it unstoppable. Created many spells by himself, something very rare. He is also a highly skilled lawyer as Mr. Gold, and a very clever and smart detective as Weaver. Able to see people intentions and lies without much thinking. Tricked many of the series' characters with ease)
Weaknesses: The Dark One's Dagger (The Dark One is magically bound to obey the commands of whosoever holds the Dark One's Dagger and can be summoned by it, and, it is the only weapon capable of killing them, however, whosoever kills the Dark One, becomes the new Dark One), Laws of Magic (Rumple cannot change the past, revive the dead, or make someone fall in True Love - although he can break these laws sometimes), Squid Ink (It can paralyze any magical being or user), The Price of Magic (Even the Dark One is subject to the Price of Magic, one of its most fundamental laws), Lack of Magic (Both the Dagger's and the Dark One's powers are useless in an area with no magic in it, rendering the Dagger a worthless knife, and the most powerful known wizard a mortal man), Enchanted Cuffs (As shown onscreen, cuffs that are enchanted to block magic have the same effect on him as anyone else), Olympian Crystal (Has the power to erase any being in the OUAT universe from existence) | The Dark One's Dagger (The Dark One is magically bound to obey the commands of whosoever holds the Dark One's Dagger and can be summoned by it, and, it is the only weapon capable of killing them, however, whosoever kills the Dark One, becomes the new Dark One), The Price of Magic (Even the Dark One is subject to the Price of Magic, one of its most fundamental laws), Olympian Crystal (Has the power to erase any being in the OUAT universe from existence), Laws of Magic (Rumple cannot change the past, revive the dead, or make someone fall in True Love), Lack of Magic (Cannot use his powers in a place where magic does not exist) | None notable
Notable Attacks/Techniques:
* Heart-ripping: Rumplestiltskin/Mr. Gold can magically penetrate a person's chest and remove the hearts of other living beings without killing them and use them to control the owner or kill them by crushing the heart.
* Transmutation: Rumplestiltskin/Mr. Gold can change an object's or person's form/appearance in a variety of ways. He can casually spin straw into gold or people into objects and animals in an instant.
* Teleportation: He can transport himself and others between realms, as long as the exact location is known. Furthermore he can transport objects and people even from far away. Can trap people in the Infinite Forest, like the Evil Queen.
* Magical Immobilization: Mr. Gold can magically immobilize several people at once, with a snap of his fingers, a hand motion, or a thought.
* Telekinetic Choke: Rumplestiltskin can use his telekinesis to crush an opponent's throat and choke them to death. Has the power to use this ability in remarkably powerful magicians, like Facilier and, for instance, "himself".
