I think she could be Eris, the greek goddess of chaos. She is usually depicted with a golden apple. As for the reason to make her look like Red Riding Hood, probably as you said, because of the werewolf guy. I think the headdress she is wearing may be similar to those use in Greek dresses, but a very liberal interpretation of the same.

Mystery solved - MegaTen wiki clarifies she's Idun of Norse mythology:

Seems like Atlus is going all out with SMT V and will probably decide the fate of the series, my best guess is that Sega doesn't want Persona as Atlus only big franchise because every Persona takes a long fucking time to make even if they milk them very well with spin-offs.

The fact that the director of SMT V is the same as Etrian Odyssey series gives me more hope, it also explains Amanozako design, the director and Himukai are friends and we all know what Himukai likes to draw.

I'll stop watching previews until release, i have spoiled myself plenty already.

Fairy Titania: The consort of Oberon, the fairy king who is the ruler of the moonlit night forest. Her origin is said to be Diana, the moon goddess of Roman mythology. She is interpreted as a fairy in England, and through Shakespeare's play "A Midsummer Night's Dream," the perception of her as a queen was firmly established.

You’ll encounter over 200 demons in your journey. You can expect the classics, but several new demons will also appear, designed by Masayuki Doi, who has worked with Atlus since Persona 2: Innocent Sin.

...

During your time in SMT V, you’ll explore Da’at, an alternative, post-apocalyptic Tokyo. As we showed in our last update, the terrain of this expansive world will change drastically depending on the area, as will the enemies and challenges of the traversal. We also discussed Gustave and Cadaver’s Hollow, which you access at leylines which allow you to save at various locations in Da’at.

...

Abscesses are mysterious red structures that block your path, and they’re accompanied by powerful enemies lurking nearby. Taking down an Abscess unblocks the path and nets you Glory, which you can spend to master new powerful abilities called Miracles.
