Yes, the name definitely did make me biased towards it being by a Dark Person (since not all names are totally original like "Robin Hood") but I also thought it was 3 dimensional: 1. made by dark person 2. requiring dark act to enact 3. when enacted it brings about darkness to the realm it destroys. Technically, the Dark Curse doesn't need to destroy a realm or travel. They just so happen to use it that way. Remember, Pan casted it and nothing would change, but the memories and the timelessness.

Remember, also that Rumple manipulated the Dark Curse to do that. The Dark Curse beforehand likely did what I mentioned. It wasn't until Rumple tinkered with it that it required such a price.

I mean, who would Mal, Ursula or Cruella sacrifice? Mal and Ursula could find someone, but Cruella couldn't dare find a single person because she can't love.
