I think Cruella is the most evil of the Queens, possibly worse than Gold. We all saw in her backstory how she smiled as her newly acquired minions slaughtered her mother, then she proceeded to slaughter the minions in turn. In Ursula's backstory, she never wanted to kill her father, she just had that teen feeling of "you're not the boss of me!". Maleficent (who, btw, is awesome) never had any parents that we saw, but that backstory was how she overcame troubles instead of being molded into who she was. Maleficent was already a villain before the backstory (like Cruella, but we have no confirmation of her being born evil). Cruella was also very so much willing to kill her mentor (Isaac), wheras Ursula wanted Hook to just leave her alone and Maleficent became friends with Regina. Cruella even would have shot Henry if she could have, whereas Ursula and Mal just want to deal with the less innocent/annoying adults. Also, could Cruella be the first step in incorporating modern-ish novels into Once??? *cough cough Narnia cough cough*
