Rejoining the College

If you commit a minor crime, such as accidentally striking a College member or pickpocketing them, you’re usually let off with a warning. However, if you commit a serious crime, such as assaulting or murdering one of the College members, all of them become hostile and will attack you. At this point, you can:

• Continue on the killing spree, which doesn’t result in much else besides dead bodies and fewer places to sell or train.
• Yield by sheathing your weapons, or flee the College, wait three days, and return. Don’t expect the College members to be hostile, but they won’t be friendly toward you either.

If you speak to Tolfdir, he is concerned but a little more understanding. However, he requires a sum of gold be paid to the College before you can rejoin. Pay up, and you become firm friends again. Refuse, and expect to be ostracized until you pay the fine. You must pay 250 gold for your first offense, 500 gold for the second, and 1,000 gold for every subsequent offense.
