Mind Peek
Occult Sovereignty (Boost) [Scrying]
Level: 6
Prerequisite: Two Occult Sovereignty maneuvers
Initiation Action: 1 swift action
Range: Medium
Target: One creature
Duration: Instantaneous
Within a few moments, you know what your opponent has in store for you.

You concentrate intently on the foe and peer into his brain. When you do, you learn all of your opponent's variable abilities — feats, skill tricks, spells known or prepared, powers known, invocations known, maneuvers readied, and soulmelds shaped. For the rest of the encounter, whenever you use any effect on that opponent that would deprive him of one or more of these abilities (temporarily or otherwise), and he would normally be allowed to choose which ones to lose (for instance, a wizard choosing which spell slots are lost to a mind scrub attack), you make that choice instead.

Unlike its lesser forms, this maneuver does not provoke attacks of opportunity. It can still be interrupted through other means, such as readied actions and continuous damage, and requires you to make a Concentration check if such a thing happens. A creature under the effects of mind blank is immune to this maneuver.
