Gunther Goth is a pre-made, playable Sim in The Sims that premiered in the Unleashed expansion pack along with his wife, Cornelia Goth, and their two cats, Hecuba and Menelaus. He is the patriarch of the Goth Family and Pleasantview.
In The Sims 2, Gunther is one of the pre-created, yet unplayable Sims featured as ancestors of playable, pre-created Sims. Though deceased when the game begins, the player can see him in the relationship tree of playable Sim Mortimer Goth, who is his son, as well as those of his grandchildren, Cassandra Goth and Alexander Goth.
Gunther was born in the Old Country, and then he moved to (and founded) Pleasantview. He is the father of Mortimer Goth, husband to the now famous Bella Goth. Gunther was the husband of Cornelia Goth, and the son of Victor Goth and Gretle Goth, both of Pleasantview; he has one sibling, Frida Goth.
Life Leading up to The Sims 3
Gunther lives with his family, Cornelia and Mortimer Goth, in a large house located by the graveyard. There is no specific mention of him being the founding father of the neighborhood, but he has many good friends and on the Goth Manor is described as the first house built in town. Instead of the Goths being 'heads' of the town, the Landgraab and Alto families seem to have more control over the town, though Goths appear to have been influential in creating the town's ethics.
Gunther has long brown hair, and wears a flamboyant top hat. He also wears an eyeliner. He is a CEO in the Business career track, and although married to Cornelia, he does not have an outstanding relationship with her (they do not want to WooHoo with each other and they must increase their relationship level to accept WooHoo with each other). This however contradicts Mortimer's bio, which says: "The Goths' strong marriage has produced a healthy boy named Mortimer." Also, it appears that he has never even met Cornelia's sister Agnes Crumplebottom, even though Agnes is Cornelia's best friend. He likes to swing and read. At the start of the game, Gunther is 5 days from becoming an elder.
Life leading up to The Sims
Gunther and his wife Cornelia Goth, along with their two cats, Hecuba and Menelaus, first appeared in The Sims: Unleashed. He is the founding father of the neighborhood, which made him very rich indeed. His hair is grey or white around the edges, and black on top, which is a bit odd since his hair in The Sims 3 is brown, but it's possible because he is supposed to represent an elder Sim and not an adult Sim.
He wears a phantom-like dark gray tux with tails and a light grey bow tie. He is a Dean in the Education career track, in contrast to his CEO job in The Sims 3. The reason for this is left to the imaginations of individual players. His relationship with his wife appears to have improved greatly and scores a 98/100.
When first played in Neighborhood 1, he will have no relationships with Mortimer, Bella, and Cassandra.
Life leading up to The Sims 2
In The Sims 2, Gunther and Cornelia had lost their lives in two separate fires. He died when his second grandchild, Alexander, was born. His wife died a bit later, just before their son, Mortimer, retired. He is buried in the new Goth home with Cornelia, his parents, father in-law and sister in-law.
His hairline has receded since The Sims, and his hair has gone completely grey. He wears a black suit with a striped blue tie. According to his SimDNA in SimPE, his hair was black before it turned grey, implying that he dyed his hair brown in The Sims 3. According to his age data, he had 17 days left in the elder life stage when he died.
