Sensitivity to Observation

Some characters have the uncanny ability to know when they are being watched. Sensitivity to observation is a devotion that is triggered by the intense attention of another person or creature. Any time the psionicist is under suck scrutiny, he may attempt a power check to see if he notices the attention. This power is always active unless consciously suppressed.

A successful power check does not reveal the location of the watcher; it merely confirms the character’s suspicion that he is being observed. If the observer is using Clairvoyance or Clairaudience to monitor the psionicist, the psionicist may attempt to obscure the watcher’s scrying by winning a psychic contest against his watcher. If successful, the watcher cannot scry against the psionicist for d4 hours.

Since the player will know his character is under observation when called upon to make this check, the DM should occasionally provide false alarms or make the character’s power check for him in secret.
