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 in order to keep the mystical powers of Rapunzel's hair all to herself. Her narcissism manifests itself in consistent psychological abuse towards Rapunzel: consistently telling her that the world is a dangerous place in order to keep her in, and even gaslighting her with the implication that a good, loving daughter would never leave the tower. Although Gothel tells Rapunzel that everything she has done is to protect Rapunzel, Gothel's methods are extreme and overbearing. Gothel also cruelly binds and gags Rapunzel when Rapunzel attempts to leave the tower to rescue Flynn. She later stabs Flynn in both an act of cruelty against him and Rapunzel. | Mother Gothel, to Rapunzel, appears to be a kind and loving mother.

*Her eyes turning pink implies Gothel was beginning to fall under Marluxia's sway; she had been fearful of him, but is later cooperating to re-imprison Rapunzel. It further backed up that Marluxia used darkness on Gothel, as an aura of darkness flared when she lost her temper with Rapunzel. | |||
