* VicariousGoldDigger:
** King George adopts James and raises him as his son. Years later, when his kingdom is almost bankrupt, George arranges a marriage between James and Princess Abigail, who is King Midas's daughter. That way, George's kingdom can have access to Midas's endless and fabulous wealth (since, in this continuity, he also has the golden touch).
** Miller's daughter Cora declares she can change straw into gold as a boast. After Rumplestiltskin teaches her magic in secret, she accomplishes the boast the next day in front of the court and in front of King Xavier, to his delight, since his kingdom's finances have been hit badly by wars, so Xavier betroths her to his son Prince Henry, even though he knows Cora doesn't love the latter and only wants the power that she will gain through the marriage.
** Cora marries Prince Henry and bears her daughter Regina. Something happens that makes the family lose their money and become landed gentry, moving to a country manor. When Regina saves the life of young Snow White, the latter's father King Leopold proposes to Regina -- who is barely a young adult at that point -- so that Princess Snow can have a second mother figure, and Cora answers yes on Regina's behalf. As time goes on and the wedding approaches, Cora insists that Regina goes on with the wedding, so she can be a queen, as Cora had wished for her so long ago. Cora goes as far as to murder the stableboy whom Regina loves to prevent the couple from eloping.
** In the episode "The Other Shoe", it is shown that Cinderella's stepmother, Lady Tremaine, gets the invitation to the royal ball and mutters to her daughters this is the opportunity she worked all her life for: for her daughters to catch a prince as a husband.
