** [[spoiler: Peter Pan]], the BigBad of Season 3A, can be seen as this for much of the series.

Which makes him indirectly responsible for every villainous act taken by both Rumple and his various students (Cora, Regina, and Zelena) throughout the run of the show.
** The Dark One for dark magic as a whole.

Eventually it's revealed that [[spoiler:the Dark One is more Greater Scope than one can think, as it is literally darkness that binds itself to a soul, known as the Darkness]].

** Hades claims to have been collecting and hoarding all the souls killed by every single BigBad or GreaterScopeVillain in the past, not to mention that he terrifies Rumple and Cora, and uses both of them as pieces in his game.

** [[spoiler: The Black Fairy, Fiona, is the ultimate example of the series. She may be younger chronologically than Hades or Nimue, but she more than makes up for it in scale. She is the mother of Rumplestiltskin and severed his fate as the Savior upon his birth to gain greater power and avoid losing him, causing her banishment and leaving him with Malcolm, turning both Rumple (the Dark One) and Malcolm (Peter Pan) into eventual monsters. She is also [[TheManBehindTheMan the real mastermind]] behind Gideon becoming the man who would eventually kill Emma (though Emma turned out to be NotQuiteDead). Oh, and she '''created the Dark Curse.''' If she hadn't turned to dark magic, Emma would never have faced all the horrible villains she did without the Curse.
