Maleficent

Maleficent, otherwise known as the Jabberwocky, Maleficence or "Fiery Death", is an ancient sentient force of dark magic that has existed for millions of years.

Background
The Maleficence has thrived off using vessels of people who crave power, making the people it possesses become powerful mages. When it possesses a woman named Morgana, she renames herself Maleficent in honor of the Maleficence. Mela Grimmhilde hires Maleficent to poison Queen Aurora with a poison from Avalon called the Sleeping Death. In retaliation, King Phillip fights Maleficent in a battle known as the legendary Jabberwocky Battle, allegedly alongside Odobenus Timmerman. Using Excalibur, a sword of Vorpal steel, Phillip traps the Maleficence inside the sword, turning all Vorpal steel in existence black so it can contain the Maleficence.

Volume 2
Kirstin Kerbell retrieves Excalibur from Grandmother Willow and plans on releasing the Maleficence so that she can control it. Kirstin abducts a girl named Cara Bosse and uses her as a vessel to contain the Maleficence after freeing it from Excalibur. However, when the Maleficence possesses Cara's body, it becomes out of control and kills Kirstin and the other faeries before becoming a dragon and attacking the Red Palace, killing Queen Rose, King Facilier, Timmerman and numerous others. It later makes Cardia its lieutenant, giving her some of its power and allowing her to rule the ruins of the Red Kingdom while the Maleficence progresses to attack Corona.

Volume 3
After travelling across Terra Mirabilos, Maleficent finally arrives at Corona and attacks, killing numerous people in dragon form. Ursula uses her control over krakens to temporarily restrain Maleficent, however, and eventually manages to douse her in a potion that stops her magic while Maleficent is in-between human and dragon forms, trapping her in the form of mutated reptilian creature which is imprisoned in the dungeons until they find a way to kill her.
