Biography:
A queen of the fairies first recorded in tales gathered by Charles Perrault in France, dating from the 14th century. Over time, her role in legends grew larger, even above that of her young victim, the Sleeping Beauty of the forest.
She may have been born a naive and generous fae of the wilderness, seduced and tricked by a king of the humans who cut her wings. Or, this may be a fabrication. She showed up at the christening of Princess Aurora and cursed her to fall into a deathlike dream, due to failing to receive an invitation. The three good fairies, Flora, Fauna and Merryweather, softened this blow by adding a clause, where the princess could be woken up by a kiss of love, and they took the princess with themselves, raising her in the mountains.
When Aurora was sixteen years old, Maleficent made her prick a finger and fall asleep, but the maiden was rescued by Princess Philip, who drove a sword into Maleficent's heart. Her death marked the true end of the era of fairies.
Class Skills:
Territory Creation: A
Depending on the amount of mana she has available, the Servant can build a workshop, a fortress, or a castle. All of these territories are surrounded by walls of sharp black thorns keeping intruders at bay.
Inside of the territory Caster has created, she creates Imps from the remains of animals, or from animals captured by her. These are transformed upright monsters who obey her orders fanatically, but they have little intelligence. They scout the surroundings of Caster's territory, armed with spiked maces and swords, plus occasionally shields and bows.
Caster is a skilled hand at drawing mana from the environment or its inhabitants through any means necessary.
Item Creation: C
Caster prefers working with her own hands and sorcery instead of crafting weapons for herself. She is also very wary of granting weapons to her allies of convenience or even the Master, since she is highly paranoid about being betrayed. If the Master can establish a high Bond with her, she can go back to the fairy she once may have been and favor them as a child of sorts.
Caster has no issues forging and issuing weapons to distribute among her imps, as she knows they are unable of turning against her. They cannot be blackmailed or convinced by others.
Personal Skills:
Green Mists of Fae- Snare of the Ancient People: C
Caster's connection to the swamps gives her dominion over the green mist- a form of gas rising from the pits, thralling those foolish enough to wander into the kingdom of the fair folk. It can hypnotize others from a long distance, but those with Eye of the Mind, Divinity or Bravery are immune.
Curse of Maleficent- Foreteller of Darkness: C+
Embittered and twisted from a young age, Caster developed an affinity towards the casting and invention of curses, on which she became a specialist. These curses only need a simple spoken incantation, and may last whole decades, but they need to be spoken in the presence of their target. However, not only these curses follow Caster's strict original wording to a level even she can't undo them should she regret them, but their conditions may be softened or lessened by another suficiently skilled magic user as long as less than one day has passed since the casting of the curse.
As Long as there is Evil...- Rebirth of Maleficent: B
Caster was seen in her lifetime as the incarnation of evil itself. As such, even if she is killed, she way be revived within a short window of time, a day's worth as a Servant, by her crow familiar Diablo and her black cape, which will be left behind after her departure. To do this, Diablo needs to present the cape to someone who remembers Caster's True Name and get them to pronounce it. Past twenty four hours, Diablo and the cape will also vanish, making use of this Skill impossible.
Noble Phantasm:
All the Powers in Hell- The Dragon of Darkness: A
Anti-Army, Anti-Mountain, Anti-Fortress.
By invoking the powers of darkness while at the pinnacle of her fury, Caster can trigger a draconic transformation upon herself or others. Changing into a giant black dragon, she can spit huge torrents of green fire (which lack any hypnotism whatsoever), and her strenght skyrockets to A+. Her Endurance against physical attacks is boosted to B+, but she's more vulnerable to holy and blessed weapons in this state. Additionally, her Agility decreases to E on land, although she wins the ability to fly with an A- Agility.
As a fairy, she is rather vulnerable to weapons made of forged steel.

Dialogue Samples:
"The Queen of Fairies? I say otherwise, Madame!" (When you have Berserker or Caster Morgan Le Fay).
"You! Insipid, meddlesome boy! This time I shall destroy you, taking the Keyblade from your little hands! On your guard, rat! Now you have no element of surprise in your favor!" (When you have Saber Sora).
"Emissary of Destruction, you say? This poor child, she should embrace her true nature already..." (When you have Lancer Sailor Saturn).

"I can sympathize. Believe me, my dear, I can. We once were much alike. Once. Now I stand far above you. Your princess status does not move my heart. If anything, there's nothing I hold in more contempt than a princess." (When you have Archer Baobhan Sith).

Holy Grail: "I wonder, I wonder... What should I wish for? The ultimate key to Darkness? The destruction of all my enemies? Or perhaps..."
