She looks more like a witch... and I guess she also is one. I could see her being either, really. But in traditional Sleeping Beauty stories, she's always been a fairy. I think a lot will depend on which Sleeping Beauty interpretation they go with (especially considering Aurora isn't the original Sleeping Beauty), but for now, my guess would be fairy. Don't quote me on it, but I recall reading something about the writers introducing a dark fairy, at some point... I could definitely see that being Malificent.

If she were to be a dark fairy, I wouldn't have any objections against it. But from what I've seen of her until now I see her as a witch. However if they are going to do an Aurora episode in the future (I still think there is only one SB, since it would be overdoing it a bit if mother and daughter have been sleeping very long) then I do hope they are going with the eight fairies (instead of 3) and let Maleficent appear, although maybe for a short scene, in fairy form.
