Keda changed very much over the past decade. I lived with her several times in Japan, and though she has always been very high-powered, she seemed to me to have gone through quite a remarkable change from the time the HCS started (I took care of her twin boys when they were tots for a few months) to later years living in Tokyo Greenfields. She was easy to talk to, quite a lot of fun and easy to confide in.
I know she held a lot of titles and misused and abused her power in the past, and has hurt, stepped on and made bad choices in the lives of other people, but the last I knew her she was quite a nice 'little' person.
I think power has a very strange effect on people, esp. ones in the Family or some other controlling cult. Power alters the personality, and once you get it, you become someone you may not normally be within a normal society. In my opinion, Robin/Maggie/Keda is an example of someone who is a nice person, but the power created a warped leader. Take the power away and she really was just a nice, though high-powered, person.
