The wicked witch archetype is a classic staple of Fairy Tales everywhere. It used to be that just about every witch was wicked, and if a non-evil female magic user appeared in folklore, she'd be referred to with a term like "sorceress" or "fairy godmother" instead, but in modern times that's not always the case. A lot of the trappings of a wicked witch are shared by her good or neutral counterpart the Witch Classic, such as Broomstick riding and wearing pointy hats. Still there are some red flags to watch out for to decide if the witch you're dealing with is good or may in fact be wicked.
