Knight of Tyr's Holy Judgement

Type: Exalted
Source: Champions of Valor

You can draw upon the power of Tyr to sense and understand the law and to locate devils.
Prerequisite: Int 13, member of the Knights of Holy Judgment
Benefit: You gain a supernatural ability to sense and understand laws. Add your paladin level to any Knowledge or Intelligence check made regarding laws. You can use this ability even if you are unfamiliar with the local laws or don't even know where you are. For example, if you use this ability upon approaching the city of Luthcheq in Chessenta, a Knowledge (arcana) or Knowledge (local Chessenta) check reveals to you that arcane magic is forbidden there. If you later end up in a strange land by way of a portal, and a Knowledge (religion) check reveals that Loviatar is the official religion where you are, you realize you are in (for instance) Dambrath. You can use this ability to find loopholes in the law, such as learning that the local temple's ability to offer a wanted criminal sanctuary only applies from dusk until dawn, allowing you to arrest the criminal after daybreak.
When you use your detect evil ability, the second round of use reveals whether or not any creatures in the area are devils, though you do not learn their exact location (but in most cases you can identify them in the third round by the strength of their aura).
You gain a +1 sacred bonus to Armor Class against devils.
