Maleficent's Goon
Template:Enemy Maleficent's goons are dark creatures that serve Maleficent in Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep. They guard their mistress's castle with their lives and use spears, maces, and bows to attack.
Ventus and Aqua face several of Maleficent's goons as they explore Enchanted Dominion. The goons first appeared in Disney's 1959 animated feature, Sleeping Beauty.
Appearance
Maleficent's goons are bipedal and come in two varieties; one is of a light build and has the head of a vulture, while the other is stockier and has a porcine visage. Both types of goons burst into green flames when defeated.

Origin
Maleficent's goons first appeared in Disney's 1959 animated feature, Sleeping Beauty. In the film, Maleficent ordered them to search nearby lands for Aurora after the infant princess disappeared into the woods with Flora, Fauna, and Merryweather. Sixteen years later, the goons returned to their mistress's side empty-handed. They faced Maleficent's wrath when she learned they had spent almost two decades incompetently hunting a baby.
Later, the goons helped Maleficent capture Prince Phillip. When the prince attempted to escape the Forbidden Mountain with the aid of the three good fairies, several goons tried to stop him.
