Maleficent, also referred as The Mistress of All Evil, was a Dark Fey who hailed from the planet Terre in the Malica Universe , in the past she was raised in the Moors, a region of the Enchanted Forest as its guardian from humans in her youth, increasingly with more monstrous and horrific extremes until eventually she personally slaughtered an entire village which deeply disgusted and enraged her best friend and love, Stefan, resulting in them fighting and him cutting off her wings and leaving her, which in time made her bitter and hateful towards him and everyone, going so far as to as to curse the kingdom with an eternal sleep of the princess Aurora. It was then when Maleficent had an encounter with Terra Tenebris, a keyblader, revealing the awareness of the Heartless and other worlds in her home reality, thus began her goals of conquest after she was defeated by Prince Philip of breaking her curse.
Maleficant was able to gain control of the Heartless by 10 AXC (1270 NE), searching for the chosen princesses who possessed the seven hearts of Light to obtain their version of Kingdom Hearts during the Worlds War in most of the Malican worlds and the second Keyblade War by her enemies. After most of the keybladers and heroes mysteriously vanished, Maleficent decided to join forces with her former rival, Xehanort Cheirismos to create the Empire of the Heartless as co-rulers, Emperor and Empress with their allies united and waged war against the United Commonwealths of Worlds after the encounter with the Combine Empire in 166 AXC (1426 NE), which greatly aided their war effort against the Commonwealths.
Ultimately realising over time, she needed a successor, an heir to one day rule the Heartless Empire, created her biological daughter, Mal and trained her in the art of dark magic to one day be powerful as her (realising later on that part of her gene was from her late enemy, Stefan but). She discovered her old enemies once thought killed were alive after centuries of absence and succeeded in changing the tides against her, unwittingly released an ancient threat sealed within Kingdom Hearts and later on in a year ignited a civil war. Fighting to sustain control of what remained of the Empire, even by a prophecy of her downfall that she was searching of that child, later realising that the child that be her downfall, Chlora Florian was in fact her secret granddaughter, daughter of Mal and the former Auradon prince, Ben Florian. Ultimately she was defeated, bringing the end of her reign and the Heartless Empire once and for all, ending the war from her universe
Biography[]
Early Life[]
Maleficent was born on the planet Terre, raised in an enchanted forest kingdom known as the Moors, bordering a human kingdom of Auroria. As a child, her parents were killed by humans lead by the tyrannical King Henry, leaving her as an orphan. One day, Maleficent is lying on a tree branch happily playing with dolls using her powers, she hears a noise and investigates and finds that the Spriggans have cornered the boy in an alcove, and demands that he come out of hiding. Reluctantly, he comes out and introduces himself as Stefan, Maleficent orders him to hand over the gem he had stolen from the Moors. He surrenders the gem and Maleficent tosses it into the water.
Maleficent escorts Stefan to the border of the Moors, where they discover that Stefan fled to the forest to escape his abusive drunk of a father. Stefan wishes to return to the Moors to see Maleficent again, but she tells him that it is forbidden. Nonetheless, they both want to see each other again but when Stefan extends his hand to her and as she goes to shake it she gets a shock from his ring. She explains that iron burns fairies and he takes off his ring and throws it away. Maleficent smiles to herself as Stefan leaves. A few weeks later, Stefan returns to see Maleficent and the two develop a close friendship, which develops into romance as they grow up.
On her sixteenth birthday, Stefan gave Maleficent a present: True Love's Kiss, and with that single act started Maleficent's obsession and desire to keep control over Stefan. Over the next several years, Maleficent manipulated Stefan to stay longer and longer at the Moors, using his preexisting problems with his own family as the perfect excuse to keep him with her for far longer then he normally would. All the while Maleficent, the strongest of the Dark Fey, rose to become her homeland's fierce protector.
The Moors are under threat from the vain and greedy King Henry, who wants to conquer them. While Maleficent sat on a cliff in the Moors, she discovered King Henry and his army charging toward the Moors and then she quickly flies off. Maleficent confronts King Henry and his army at the border of the Moors and warns them not to proceed any further, but her warning is ignored by the soldiers who begin their attack on the Moors.
Maleficent calls forth the Forest Army, which includes the Spriggans, the Tree Ogres, and the Vine Dragon. They stood by her side as she engaged the soldiers in a fierce battle. Maleficent leads her army of the forest spirits against Henry’s army, she swoops down and takes down the soldiers then comes across Henry and knocks down him off his horse, mortally wounding him. The soldiers charge towards Maleficent, with few flaps of her wings, she throws them off their feet. She goes over to Henry who is lying on the ground, but the King pushes her away, and as his armor is made of iron which burns her. The Forest Army emerges victorious and the surviving soldiers to retreat back to their kingdom, and her victory began another hidden desire, her lust for power, and to the worry of the Forest's peoples, she declared himself their ruler ontop of their chief protector.
Rise of the Dark Fairy[]
As maleficent grew in power and became increasingly tyrannical in her own right in the Moors. Henry has demanded to be avenged and will name whoever kills Maleficent as his successor to the throne, sending the proclamation far and wide, which lead to Stefan to hear of the declaration and he, in turn, rushed to tell his love of the news. Yet despite Stefan clear worry, Maleficent ignored the warning and instead focused on why Stefan was in the human village in the first place, confusing him, but that confusion was replaced with dread and fear as he saw the rage building in Maleficent's features who promptly told him to stay home as she left, heading to his home village directly.
Once Maleficent arrived at the village, she promptly began to slaughter its' people and destroying the town. Once Stefan finally arrived, he found his home village burning and his family slaughtered, including his own mother and sister, causing him to fall to his knees and began weeping, and this sound made Maleficent realize Stefan did not follow her orders and calmly walked to him, with cold anger asked why he didn't do as he was told and instead of getting a reply from him, he screamed at him and charged and started weakly beating at her for what she did, but she was stronger then him and overpowered him and hit him hard enough to stun him. In this stunned state, Maleficent came to the conclusion that she must mark him as hers, and began dragging Stefan away from the burning village, but Stefan managed to regain consciousness and started fighting back but her grip was too strong at least until he saw a piece of iron nearby and managed to grab it and hit her hands enough to force her to let go and in her brief moment of distraction Stefan used whatever strength he had to knock her unconscious, but couldn't bring himself to kill her, yet knew she had to be stopped and as much as it pained him, he cut off her wings and fled the village as fast as he could.
Regaining conscious, Maleficent awakened in the ruins of Stefan's home village, and due to burns on her back felt immense agony. She starts crying in agony and rage upon finding that her wings are now gone. Unable to walk properly, Maleficent picks up a simple twig and transforms it into a staff. When she tried to return to the Moors she found that its' creatures and people refuse her entry, having grown disgusted with what she did to the human village last night, and in rage maleficent promised retribution for be turning against her, before leaving to parts unknown before stumbling upon a slightly defended castle of a minor noble, and while weakened, this did not prevent her from slaughters its' inhabitants and claiming the now ruined castle as her own, stewing in her own angry that it manifested as a corrupting darkness that warped the area around the castle, leading to stories from both humans and the forest folk of the haunted and or cursed area that Maleficent now called home. Its' unknown when she began to experiment with darker magics but over the course of years she became a master of such magics, which she intended to use for vengeance and conquest.
Curse of the Princess[]
Making her return after 16 years, learning that Stefan had a newly born daughter, Maleficent saw this as a perfect act of vengeance to make him suffer. Appears in the castle and curses the new born princess Aurora for her 16th birthday to die by the prick of a spinning wheel, However, Merryweather altered this curse so that, instead of dying, Aurora would simply fall into a deep sleep until kissed by her true love. Together, the three good fairies raised the princess in the woods, out of the reach of Maleficent and her goons. Maleficent is informed by her raven about seeing the magic of Flora, Fauna, and Merryweather coming from a cottage in the Glen. Elated, Maleficent works to ensure her curse comes to pass.
At an unknown point in time, Maleficent met Master Xehanort, who revealed to her the existence of other worlds and the seven Princesses of Heart, whose hearts could be used to conquer all worlds. He also told her of certain wielders of the Keyblade that she would encounter. After this meeting, Maleficent's ambitions would grow to domination over all worlds in the universe.
After the fairies leave a heartbroken Aurora in her room, Maleficent hypnotizes her into following a sphere of fire to a hidden tower room. When the fairies arrive to save Aurora, Maleficent summons the Thorned Snake Heartless to keep them occupied. Maleficent summons a spinning wheel and compels Aurora to prick her finger on it, allowing her curse to put her to sleep. She taunts the fairies for their failure before leaving to capture Prince Phillip. She locks him in the dungeon of her castle, revealing she will let him out in a century, so he may wake Aurora, but never have a life with her. The keybladers and the fairies free Phillip, allowing him to escape the castle. Maleficent creates a forest of thorns around King Stefan's castle, slowing the prince down. Confronting Phillip on the bridge outside the castle, Maleficent transforms into a giant dragon to kill him. However, Phillip manages to briefly knock her out with Aqua's help. Maleficent awakens, forcing the fairies to bless Phillip's blade; he tosses into Maleficent's heart, causing her to evaporate into darkness, although this evidently did not kill her for good..

Personality and Traits[]
Much like her variations, Maleficent is manipulative, scheming and highly cunning sorceress who was utterly determined to take over the dominion of Kingdom Hearts as well as much of the worlds of her home universe. Cool, calculated manner, easily she manipulated to achieve her aims. Maleficent was highly vengeful towards Sora, because of him having destroyed her once in their first battle. This also extended towards Stefan who she once had a relationship until he took her wings and returned the favour by cursing his daughter with a curse to put her in an eternal sleep by a prick of a finger on her 16th birthday.
nore ddid she tolerate failure, as shown when she berates Pete for his attempt to take over Kingdom Hearts without her during the Worlds War, saying to him "Mark my words, there'll be no place for you when our time comes. Useless imbecile!".
Despite this, she seems to tolerate the incompetent Pete as her helper. She was not without scruples, however, and has aided Sora on some occasions, especially at times of dealing with the crisis against Hitt'lon Zizz'lii, yet, for her own evil reasons as she could not allow those to get in her way, but even so she is willing to offer her foes a chance to leave with no sign of confrontation and was proven honourable on her word on some occassions. She has proven to make alliances with former rivals as she had with Xehanort Cheirismos to create the Heartless Empire and even work alongside members of the Axis of Empires during the First Multiverse War.
Maleficent has shown to have a caring side to her daughter, Mal, as her potential successor to be powerful as she was in magic and to rule the empire. Even when she discovered that she was in fact not only born artificially, but in fact having the late biological father of Stefan, but saw this as a act of vengeance for her to use agains this kingdom, especially. But not above being intimidating and forcing her to do her bidding, even to tell her that love is a weakness. Upon discovering about a prophecy of her final downfall of a child, she went to great lengths to keep her daughter from being distracted by suitors, but failed to realise in years time she had a granddaughter and enraged to learn of this.
