Mother Gothel was an old crone who kidnapped Rapunzel as a baby upon discovering that her hair had the ability to heal. Gothel raised Rapunzel as her own daughter within a tower, hiding her from the rest of the world by warning her of its dangers, all to exploit her mystical hair to keep herself eternally young.

Line 34: Line 33:


Rapunzel tells Gothel that if she lets her heal Flynn with the powers of her hair, Rapunzel will do whatever Gothel asks, sacrificing her freedom for the rest of her life, which Gothel accepts. While talking with Flynn, he cuts off Rapunzel's hair, removing its healing properties. Gothel begins to rapidly age before [[Pascal]] trips her, which causes her to fall out the window and whither away until only her cape remains. Marluxia observes from a distance, determining that her lingering darkness now poses a threat to Rapunzel's pure light, and subsequently uses that darkness to create the [[Grim Guardianess]] [[Heartless]], which Sora and his friends destroy.

Mother Gothel, to Rapunzel, appears to be a kind and loving mother. However, she is actually rather selfish, narcissistic and deceitful, having lied to Rapunzel about her past and stolen her away from her true family. She also cruelly bounds and gags Rapunzel when Rapunzel attempts to leave the tower to rescue Flynn. Mother Gothel later stabs Flynn in both an act of cruelty against him and Rapunzel.
