Rumplestiltskin is one of the inhabitants of the extradimensional realm of Fairyland, or 'Grimmworld', which comes into contact with Earth once every millennium.
History
Rumplestiltskin serves the Loreli, the despotic ruler of Grimmworld, but was tricked by another Grimmworld resident, the Wise Woman, into giving some of the Loreli's power to a human girl named Sally Barnes as part of the Wise Woman's plot to draw the Justice Society of America into ousting the Loreli, which led to the Loreli's forces invading Earth and being apparently destroyed in the attempt. Having survived this, Rumplestiltskin later participated in the Loreli's second attempted invasion of earth, and was opposed by Infinity, Inc.
