Kit's eyes glitter coldly. "I have no intention of running away," she says evenly before allowing a smile onto her face. "But plans of daring and risk resulting in resounding victory are certainly something I can get behind." She raises her glass to Kyve as well, grinning at Brock.
"I know there are bad people in tbe world. This city proven that to me and our town," Wallis pausing glancing at Brock, "but the cleric in the street...I never knew a holy man to be so cruel," she adds looking somber. "This city must be corrupt if even the temples are run by men like him. Helping people here seems a fair task but what is impersonating this man going to achieve exactly," Wallis ask curiously.
OOC: Seems like a spying on and making decisions based on our own gathered opinions is the best action moving forward but Wallis is pretty naive folks. I didn't build her for out and out skulldugary!
"We can cast doubt on him and his reputation, and get in places we might not otherwise be able to," Kit explains. "Start a war of public opinion on him."
"I say we just have one person pretend to look like him.. and another person to dress up like a poor old woman and create a scene where our guy beats up this innocent old woman for no reason.... and then repeat with other friendly seemingly innocent people for as long as needed..." Brock would say as he puts some chunks of cheese in his pocket. "But It sounds like first we should go check him out... when do we leave?"
"That essential happened to us. Not a defenseless old woman but citizen attacked by their sworn protectors. That is not a good idea repeated I think," Wallis replies to Brock. "Let's go see what we can see. I think that's best," she adds.

"Well in that case we should prepare ourselves, a trip to the Valias may require a certain level of sophistication, and clothing that doesn't look like you live in a it. Although seeing as how you have recently lost most of your possessions to a suspicious fire, we may need to help out somewhat. Fortunately, as a leader of a gang of petty criminals I have a stash of fine clothing suitable for such an occasion."" Smiling at Kit he winks as he asks "My lady, would you care to take a trip to the High Temple with me, you seem to have much that you should make confession for." He laughs as he speaks before turning to the others, "Tell me how you wish to appear, Lord, lady, servitor.." He pauses looking at Valen "I had forgotten, you actually come from money, don't you. If you wish to be yourself will it prove a problem, are you in trouble back there? I mean you could just be someone else for a few hours, if you need to...."
Kyve then let's the others describe what they want in terms of clothing - please describe your new appearance as you finish getting ready to for your trip to the Upper class District, the Valias.

Kit's eyes sparkle with laughter. "Why thank you, good sir. I do believe I'll take you up on your offer. Both of them, in fact."
Once Kit is done getting ready, she wears a dark green dress that fits her figure surprisingly well (at least surprisingly for those who don't know about her shapeshifting abilities). A simple motif of vine-like embroidery makes its way around the hem of the dress and sleeves, worked in pale grey thread. Silvery studs are in her ears, and she wears a necklace on a silver chain that she certainly didn't get from Kyve, the pendant a stylized mask with wings stretching back from it. She appears to be wearing some makeup, just enough to accentuate the slant of her eyes and darken her lips, and her eyes seem a more vivid green than usual.
"My friend, it's a good thing you can hit things hard,"Valen replies to Brock' suggestion with a laugh. "Before we do anything so blunt, and if we are to commit any actions on behalf of him we will need to make sure Mransci is indisposed in a fashion that no one can provide him with an alibi. Suspicions would surely rise if there are two accounts of this man running about town." He takes a few more bites from his plate before washing it down with the rest of his wine.
Clasping his hands together as he rises from the table he wanders over to the chests of pilfered clothing. "Let's see what fun we can have... Shall we?" He ponders Kyve's question for a moment. "No, no trouble, but I do suppose it would be best to appear as someone else. I would hate for word to get back to my parents that I was back in town... considering that I'm supposed to be away studying some boring subject matter."He rubs his chin as he holds a few garments up for inspection. "I can change my face easily enough, but a new wardrobe may be called for just in case someone gets to close."
Brock would grin and move towards the selection of clothing. The fighter would immediately be drawn to a fine set of solid black jacket and pants with a silver threaded vest. Under the vest is a long white collared shirt and with a silver threaded tie tucked into the vest. To finish off the look, Brock would pull out a pair of fine black polished boots that are mostly covered by the length of his pants. Small silver cuff links sit on his wrists and a large black top hat hides his rough looking haircut. The last two items the brawler would select is a black cane with a silver dragon handle and a silver chained monocle. Looking to the others, the gentleman brawler would grin before moving to the makeup himself. He had become proficient in using makeup and other disguises when getting ready for his fights. Brock would take some and apply it the best he could to hide his scars before waxing his facial hair. "Well... how to I look... " Brock would say with a smile, placing both hands on his walking stick and leaning heavily upon it.. the muscles in his arms causing the fine fabric in his sleeves to bulge a bit. He would then pull the monocle from his right eye and give it a quick twirl before putting it back in. ""Call me Mr Coinbags..." He would say before tipping his hat.
"You all look wonderful" Kyve calls as the party reassemble in the main room upstairs in the Burning Castle, "I must confess I am surprised how well you scrub up." Walking past Kit he smiles, sketches a dramatic bow "A dress fit for a princess, worn as if you were born to it. The rest of you will do, I suppose" he winks just for Kit as he says this.
"I hope you are ready to be on your best behaviour, we have a carriage waiting to take us up onto the hill, try not to step in anything disgusting before we get there." As the party begin to move towards the stairs he stops them with a raised hand. "This way, there is no point in a disguise if you show everyone your before and after" he chuckles to himself as he opens a section of paneling on the rear wall which the party can see leads down into a narrow staircase. He leads them down and they emerge into the rear courtyard where a respectable looking carriage is waiting for them. They notice Marike up on the driver's seat wearing servant's attire "Please, let us be in and away." Kyve asks, when the group are all sat down he slaps the top of the carriage and calls out "Onwards good lady, to the Valias."

Kit gives Kyve a sparkling smile. "You're too kind, sir." She picks up the hem of her dress ever so slightly as she moves across the ground to keep it from accidentally brushing the dirt, and then climbs into the carriage carefully, grinning at the others. "Ready to go to temple?"
Once they arrive in the Valias, Kit's demeanor will change, becoming far more serious and imperious. Her back will straighten, her hands become precisely folded in her lap, and her eyes will cool, although she occasionally tosses a small grin at one of the other four when nobody else is looking.
"By the gods you all look grand, simply grand!" Brock would boast with a smile before running his hand across his waxed facial hair. "Call me Lotso... Lotso Coinbags... at your service." He would say with a bow over his black walking stick. Then looking to Wallis and Kit, he would smile. "Yes, both you you lovely ladies simply ravishing!... and you are acceptable as well Val...Victor... Victor Soggybottom was it?" Brock would finish with a wide grin. "Yes! To the Vilias! Make haste!" Brock would shout as he leaps into the carriage.
Valen shakes his head. "Do you think I look like a halfling, 'Coinbags'?!" The man runs his hands down the sleeves of his jacket, smoothing out the wrinkles. "That name will not do at all, my friend. If you wish to refer to me by something else you can call me Vincze Clortho." Valen awaits for the ladies to board, assisting them as they step into the carriage before stepping in himself.
"I think we all look well," Wallis begins but her confidence dies quickly. "I don't mind acting like security for you Kit. I won't have to talk much if it's implied I'm your servant," the half elf says in a low tone. "I...I'm not sure on a false name. Do people care to know servants names here," she asks.
OOC: I'm assuming I'm not lugging my bow or can we say we've got weapons?

Kit gives Wallis a warm smile. "You look fantastic," she tells the half-elf softly. "Ready to lead a dance or storm a castle. And if you don't want to talk much, security is a good role, you can stay quiet as long as you glare at anyone who spends too long talking to us. What about Winna? The W will make it a little easier to respond to it, but it's distant enough from your name that it shouldn't present too much of a connection." She turns the smile on the others. "You are now speaking to the Lady Alexia Clair, do comport yourselves as such," she tells them imperiously before grinning. "Or at least do so once we're in the Valias."
"Sounds good," Wallis nods smiling softly at Kit and giving her a nod. "I've never seen you that...clean," she says softly to Brock with pink in her cheeks as she smiles.

Brock would raise his glass to Kit with a grin before downing its contents.
