Losing Renown?

Any way to do this? I stockpiled Renown: Criminals while raising connections at the Carnival (I mostly wanted Favors), but realized it was terribly out of character.
Actually, now that I think about it, will there be a system to trade Renown for Favors and vice versa?

I go into the Cave of Nadir myself all the time to get people to forget me. So far I can't remember a single time this hasn't worked.

I would suggest reading through the initial Renown announcement as it relates to in-character reasons for Renown vs Favours.
Having a high Renown doesn't necessarily mean that you're well liked or admired by Criminals, it simply means that they know who you are.
Stealing from the Brass Embassy, for example, will lose you Favours, but get you Renown: Hell.
While you can trade in Favours for renown or cash, you can't trade in Renown because the faction isn't going to forget about you unless you send them all into the Cave of Nadir or something drastic.
So it doesn't have to be out of character at all that Criminals know who you are. They could be mad, glad or indifferent. Renown just means that you've done enough stuff in and around them that they have heard your name.
