How to get Maleficent in Disney Dreamlight Valley
Maleficent is unlocked as a villager at the very end of The Unwritten Realms: Maleficent's Demise quest. This task isn't an easy one to reach, though, as you first have to complete several prerequisite quests to unlock Maleficent.
Maleficent prerequisites in Disney Dreamlight Valley
Before you can unlock Maleficent, you need to complete the main storyline for The Storybook Vale part one and a decent chunk of part two as well. In total, there are 22 quests you have to get done before you can recruit her. All of the tasks you need to tackle are as follows.

- Guts & Glory
- A Moth to a Flame
- The Promethean Flame
- The Marble Colossus
- Losing Your Marbles
- Mount Olympus

- A Long-Awaited Invitation

- The Unwritten Realms: Maleficent’s Gift
- The Unwritten Realms: The Spinning Wheel
- The Unwritten Realms: Maleficent’s Demise
To work through all of these quests, you also need to unlock and befriend Merida, Flynn, and Hades. They're important characters for all of these tasks, so getting them in your valley is crucial for eventually unlocking Maleficent, too.
The main quests that focus on recruiting her are The Unwritten Realms: Maleficent’s Gift, The Unwritten Realms: The Spinning Wheel, and The Unwritten Realms: Maleficent’s Demise. During these tasks, your goal is to find three essential memories to stop her from being erased. This includes:
Each one of these quests has a series of complex puzzles to solve and can take quite a while to get done. Between these tasks and the many other prerequisite missions that come before them, Maleficent is easily one of the trickiest characters to add to your valley. She's not a character you can jump in and unlock right away, so focus on steadily working your way through all of the required tasks over time to recruit her.
