I'm so glad I'm not the only one who thinks she may be evil. If you look she is the type who claims she's good then does some pretty dark things over the years she's been alive (which if she's older than Rumplestiltskin means it is numerous centuries).

First, she is a liar though she has claimed she didn't. She told Rumplestiltskin that Fairies never lie yet she turned around and lied to Prince Charming and Snow about the Wardrobe.

Second thing to note is she is highly manipulative. She tried to manipulate The Dark One into leaving the world and get rid of him (which I have my own theory that the curse has its own self preservation streak which keeps the curse alive - though not the carrier, ust the curse.  It would explain why it is able to move from person to person without anyone breaking it.  This means no true love's kiss, no travelling to other worlds without magic - even if it leaves you heart broken by what you lost, and always ending up in desperate cowards.

Third, She doesn't think about reprecussions of her actions. She got rid of the one person that kept Rumplestiltskin on the Straight and Narrow leaving him darker and uncontrolled. She forced Dreamy and Nova apart because of the 'Greater Good' which turned him into Grumpy. Then she lied about the Wardrobe then when the time came she told Geppetto 'you're going to have to sacrifice your son so Snow can enter with her daughter just because' and expected him to listen. She has centuries to learn about human nature and expected a human to sacrifice the child they would give anything for... at the very least she is completely brain dead.

She also seems to be the type who would sacrifice the few for the 'greater good' and not understand that its wrong.

If you add on that Rumplestiltskin is the Dark One and - from the way it sounds - he was fair with his deals (rather than lets say Zoso who sent kids to war) he's added a little bit more light and drive to his particular curse that means something would have to pick up that darkness. There has to be a balance between good and evil. It would make sense a 'paragon of good' would become corrupt.

Anyways, that's my rambling two cents.
