Losing totem modifiers seems sufficient to me, for minor offenders anyway.
If the shaman doesn't get the message, increase TNs, remove more dice, or
completely let the totem lose contact with the shaman.

Hermetic mages should get no penalty, if you ask me. Look at the way
hundreds of rats get killed regularly to see what happens when they
are infected with some disease, for example. Mages are the scientist-
magicians, so they should be able to get away with doing this. Until the
GM buys Threats, that is :)
