I think her Road is pretty good, tbqh. The character has been in the game for two years (I've been a player for one and a half) and I've seen the character development, and from what I've seen it's been reasonable change.
I thought it was fine until I realized Road has been in game for half a year. She's at least thirty-five years old in canon and it kinda rubs me wrong that she's changed so much in so little time, comparatively.
I've read the character development, and it looks rushed and self-indulgent to me. Like she wants to get her to grow to reach a certain point, but she has no concept of proper pacing to get there. A lot of her reactions seem choppy and very disjointed, like she plays her like she wants her to be, and occasionally remembers what she's actually like in canon.
Add the bitchy, self-important attitude of the mun, OOCly from what I've seen and you get one hell of an off-putting image.
I can't answer to the points, but as the player posted on Plurk recently, no one has ever posted crit for her so she doesn't know what she can improve. Maybe you could use her HMD post to see what she has to say about your problems? I know she has a post in the character journal.
OOC-wise, she's really not that bad. Even though she's been getting hate on anon memes for the last few months she's actually a pretty reasonable person and would probably be glad to have the advice. I've pointed out some of my concerns about choices the character has made in the past, and she was able to explain the thought process and reasoning that Rhode was having behind everything very clearly to me.
