The king is a greedy and selfish man.

Is Rumpelstiltskin good or bad? You may have to do more research into the Grimm fairy tale before you pass judgement.

Rumplestiltskin is sort of good because he helped the miller's daughter, but also quite cunning and devious.

I am familiar with the story of Hansel and Gretel, and Snow White and the Seven Dwarves.
