Gideon, once known as Morpheus, is a supporting antagonist on the ABC series Once Upon a Time, serving as the secondary antagonist of the second half of Season 6 (although unwillingly). He is the son of Rumpelstiltskin and Belle, the grandson of the Black Fairy and Peter Pan, half brother of Neal Cassidy, and the uncle of Henry Mills.
He appears at first to be the true main antagonist of the entire season, being the one in the prophecy to supposedly kill Emma Swan as well as easily defeating the Evil Queen, until it's revealed that the Black Fairy was using his heart to force him to commit evil acts to release her from her banishment by killing Emma the Savior, and later becomes a sympathetic anti-hero, trying to break free from his grandmother's control.He was given a second chance at life, this time, raised under his parents and someone who truly was happier than in his former life.
He is portrayed by Giles Matthey.
