I think that, on the show's part, it's because most magic comes from females in fairy tales. I guess the writers could get Triton involved, Tzekel-Khan (no matter what reviews say, I love the Road to El Dorado), Merlin, the HOrned King, etc. They did bring in Jafar (and I love Naveen Andrews! He nailed the role) and I hope they bring him back. But, the amount of fairy tales/Disney stories with magical females dwarfs the amount of the same with magical males.
