Apocrypha
According to the Lore AMA, King Midas "had the power to turn anything he touched into “gold” (which only looked like gold, had none of the properties, and was obviously fake). Since he was constantly tempted by what would appear to be wealth, but wasn’t, he became a criminal to steal REAL gold."
