If Maleficent is simply a sorceress, then I wonder why other sorcerers/sorceresses haven't become dragons. Perhaps it's simply Maleficent's signature move, like Cora and Regina with heart-ripping.

Perhaps its the other way round and she is a dragon that can turn human. After all, in Hong Kong, the mystic man was called The Dragon. He appeared to be a human, but he implied that it wasn't his true form. I'd say there's may be connection but Maleficent didn't appear familiar with The Dragon when they were interrogating August.
