Detect Signing
This proficiency allows a character to realize when other characters are communicating using their own clan signs. The character who makes a Detect Signing roll recognizes seemingly meaningless symbols as writing and ordinary speech as having special meaning, though she just will not know the content of the communication.
At the DMs discretion, a Detect Signing roll made by 2 or more will allow the character to recognize when other sorts of subtle communications are being used, such as Thieves' Cant. If a character makes her Detect Signing roll by 6 or better, she can recognize one word or symbol in a specific communication and understand its meaning. The DM chooses which word the character recognizes. (This is an opportunity for the DM to pass an intriguing clue on to the character.)
