There will be a big reveal as to who she works for, resulting in a duel, and a chain of events eventually leading to her death by Either rabid Grim, her employers, the girls, or maybe even Juane. I reckon that she is irredeemably evil.

Roman on the other hand was instantly introduced as a crime lord, and quite a fun character. He has personality, and he isn't a hardass or evil in any right. I can see him being the one to turn on his employers for one reason or another, at least surviving to the end of this season with a sort of "maybe next time" line of some kind, maybe even him going to prison. I doubt he's actually going to die. He might try to weasel his way out of going to prison in a true "Jack Sparrow" style, but be grabbed on the shoulder by Yang before he can do anything

Very true. I think he's more of a long standing secondary antagonist than an actual threat to the world of RWBY. Think of him like Team Rocket, or maybe he'll be involved with future antagonists to provide them with Dust, or maybe he'll just be an anti-hero that serves his own needs and can help or hinder our heroes.
