User blog comment:Maki Kuronami/A connection between Crimson and the Malachite sisters?/@comment-10317392-20130721101654/@comment-10390252-20130721135907

My guess is that Crimson is an Enforcer, maybe even the Dragon (second-in-command) to the Big Bad. She was there to make sure that Roman didn't screw up and to make sure that he didn't come up with the brilliant idea of using the 'take' from the job for his own ends. As it turns out, she had to fish his pasty-white hide out of the fire. She's going to have a lovely time explaining that fiasco to the Boss and, I think, Roman is going to find that she is a lot less forgiving and tolerant of his eccentricities in the future.
