"I go for a pretty particolored aesthetic myself, silver will fit in fine."

Then Camellia will finish filling her bag and leave the rest of the contents of the room to Horgus Gwerm; on the way out, she'll stop by one of the rooms on the first floor and pull out a set of robes that look to be made of silk and adorned with actual silver.

"Don't worry about it deciding to tarnish, magic items don't do that kind of thing."

"Beautiful, I love them." She whips up a privacy screen around herself and changes her underlying non-paper clothing for the robes and then re-paper-armors herself and assumes the screen into the assembly.

It's really quite comfortable!

Jut down the street from the mansion entrance, a woman is being escorted by a pair of crusaders heading west. They seem to be paying her a rather creepy amount of attention.

"Any idea what those folks are up to?" Ky remarks to Camellia.

"My first thought is lust; she seems quite attractive, and her body language suggests she's quite skilled at engendering that kind of response. There's a lot of reason why someone who can do that kind of act would want to turn that into protection, considering the state of the city. But they don't seem to be leading her towards the defender's heart, which suggests at least one of them is up to no good. If it's the men, probably because they want to take advantage of her; if it's the woman, my guess would be a succubus who charmed them into doing something stupid."

"Yeah, looked fishy to me too. Up for courting trouble?"

"Sounds like fun. Let me give you a protection from evil first, though, no point in being stupid about it."

"Thanks!"

Once buffed appropriately she will quicken her pace to draw level with the group. "Good day!"

"Good day to you as well!" One of the men responds. "What brings you out here? Are you also looking to get to safety like my lady?"

"On the contrary, we're looking for trouble! Seen any?"

"Not really, it's mostly been quiet; not too many things want to mess with me when I have such gallant defenders. I suggest you look elsewhere."

The spell-like ability bounces right off protection from evil, but that still leaves this person as a superhumanly charismatic speaker attempting to get Kybele to agree with her.

She glances at Camellia to see if she got got.

It doesn't look it, though it could be something subtle. Camellia seems to be looking suspiciously at the woman, but hasn't raised her rapier yet.

"And your gallant defenders weren't too busy? How surprising. There are so many demons around the city."

"Oh, they understand what's really important. I'm sure you can sympathize." As she speaks, the woman puts on her most charming grin; a hint of frustration flickers on her face when this also doesn't get the desired response.

"I can't say that I do."

"I will not be denied here! You will obey me!" Her face turns to a rictus of rage. "That's it. My loyal guards, kill the demon for your mistress!"

"Of course, milady."

The two of them draw their weapons and try to get between her and Kybele.

They're going in paper cocoons and then she's going to shove them over as she stalks past them, angel sword in one hand and paper sword in the other.

Thanks to the power granted them by a profane gift, they'll put up significantly more of a fight than you'd expect against being cocooned! They're frankly inhumanly strong and their weapons have little trouble slicing through the papers. This may, however, be rather less useful given that Kybele is also capable of controlling both of the resulting halves, or just not holding the paper against the blow and having them knock it around instead of cutting anything.

Frustrated at their inability to help her, the woman sprouts wings and flies towards Kybele, hoping to touch her and drain out her life.

Ky's armored up but having to maintain the cocoons takes some attention and she's not going on the offensive at the same time. The paper can get thicker, thicker than anything you could make conventionally because it'd wind up the wrong consistency when it dried out, but she can't actually make it constrict, she can just take advantage whenever they wind up with their limbs closer to their bodies for other reasons. She dances back from the succubus while she's concentrating on that.

Do you know what goes straight through a succubus' damage resistance? Cold iron, like the rapier she's holding and just enchanted. How about she reminds it of this fact by stabbing it somewhere painful? Perhaps several somewheres.

The succubus is not a fan of this at all!

"Stupid humans, you should have just stayed out of my way! I'll make you suffer for this!"

It switches targets, trying to grab onto Camellia even as she dances backwards.

Which gives Ky an opening to hop close enough that she can blindfold the succubus with suddenly-appearing paper!

That sure does make its job of grabbing anyone harder. She switches strategies, shapeshifting into the form of a halfling to escape the blindfold and tries ducking and weaving between the paper and rapier to get at someone, to no real success. Desperate, she then turns to the weaker of her struggling subordinates and grabs him instead; the man staggers, barely able to stand upright, but the demoness gets a second wind.
