Maleficent is a villain in all three Kingdom Hearts games.

In Kingdom Hearts

Maleficent, the evil fairy from Sleeping Beauty, was the mastermind behind the council of evil Disney characters seen numerous times in Kingdom Hearts. Acting as a guide, she warned each of her co-conspirators that they should be wary of the darkness. One by one, each failed to listen to her and each met their demise at the end of Sora's Keyblade (with the exception of Pete, her loyalest co-conspirator). Her knowledge and control of the powers of darkness had enabled her to control the Heartless, or so it seemed. Unbeknownst to Maleficent, the Heartless were simply using her to reveal the keyhole in Hollow Bastion, and in the meantime were eating away at the light in her heart. When Riku unlocked her heart, the darkness seeped into it, somewhat healing her wounds obtained when Sora battled her in the keep of Hollow Bastion.

Maleficent turned into a dragon (it should be noted that she could do this anyway), but the darkness did not see her through. When Sora defeated her, the Heartless ate her heart and she faded away.

By defeating Maleficent, Sora obtains the fifth page of Ansem's Report, and Sora learns the Cheer ability. Defeating Dragon Maleficent rewards Sora with the Fireglow, which unlocks the ability to summon Mushu if taken to the Fairy Godmother.

In Kingdom Hearts 2

Pete revives Maleficent in Kingdom Hearts 2, in which Maleficent poses as a minor villain. Like in Kingdom Hearts, she is the main wielder of the Heartless. However, she now competes with Organization XIII for supreme power. Maleficent, with the help of her only loyal follower remaining, Pete, goes from world to world reviving her other followers. Although only Oogie Boogie is witnessed being revived, it may be guessed that she is also responsible for the return of Ursula the Sea Witch and for Scar and Shan Yu using Heartless. She is once again killed in the World that Never Was; this time by the Nobodies. It is proved that there was some light left in her heart, as she dies while protecting Sora.

Trivia

  • According to Jiminy Cricket, Maleficent was personally responsible for the destruction of her world and for the capture of Princess Aurora. Maleficent is probably also responsible for the capture of Alice, Belle, Snow White, and Cinderella.
  • In the English versions in the three games, Maleficent is voiced by Susan Blakeslee. Susan Blakeslee also did the voice of Lady Tremaine in Cinderella 2. This may or may not be coincidental, as Maleficent and Lady Tremaine were also both voiced by the same person (in this case Eleanor Audley) in Sleeping Beauty and Cinderella respectively.
