Hope one of the witches is Ursula, the goddess of the sea of the 3x06, the one who warned Regina not to make her angry. Since I watched that episode, I started pray for god that we see her again. Or just the Sea Witch, I think she was the worst character of OUAT, she appeared like 2 episodes and she was boring. We did see that Ursula, she's the same one that we meet with the 3 witches come. She was the statue that came alive to tell off Regina. And when they come to Storybrooke, Ursula warns Regina from ever crossing her like that again.

It's true that we don't really know what villany she did to become the seawitch. She got the octopus legs, to get back at her father, for trying to always control his little mermaid. And Regina is the one who stole Ariel's voice. It seems more like her act of rebellion against her father, and his response, is what made her a villan, less like she really did anything.
