History Webcomic / Rumplestilskin

''Rumplestiltskin'' is a webcomic adaptation of ''Literature/{{Rumpelstiltskin}}''[[note]][[SpellMyNameWithAnS Note that the “L” and the “E” are switched.]] It will save you a headache.[[/note]] by [[http://www.smackjeeves.com/profile.php?id=6180 H0lyhandgrenade]] (who also makes ''Webcomic/{{Mokepon}}''). It stars Christine (Chris for short), a girl who’s sick and tired of living on a farm with her brother Toby, [[ConvenientlyAnOrphan particularly after both their parents died.]] After that incident, [[CynicismCatalyst Toby was too angsty to play pretend with her]] and all Chris had for true companionship was this [[OurFairiesAreDifferent strange man who lived in the woods and refused to give his name.]]

[[TimeSkip Ten years later]], Chris is still sick of living on a farm. Fortunately, she’s had plenty of time to not only dream up the perfect adventure that she’d go on eventually, and she’s also picked up some minor magical skills (that she’s forbidden to use because women with magic have a history of being DrunkOnTheDarkSide). But lo and behold, word on the street is the king is looking for a bride that can do magic and has modern ideals. [[AcceptableFeminineGoalsAndTraits Chris decides that it’s worth it to drop by and say hello.]] ToMakeALongStoryShort, she ends up breaking a bunch of expensive things, indirectly almost murdering a handmaiden and getting herself arrested. How is she supposed to get out of this mess?

This webcomic provides examples of:

* RichBitch: Despite being famed in-story as a BadassPrincess and a [[RoyalsWhoActuallyDoSomething Royal Who Actually Does Something]] Princess Asche looks down on common-born girls who make it to the top and disapproves of Christine's kingdom's attempts at modernization, [[PretenderDiss specifically because her own country did it first]]. It's also implied that she hides behind General Laika, and isn't as talented herself.
