[QUOTE="KarinsDad, post: 3288067, member: 2011"] My take is that Nondetection does nothing in this case. The target has already failed a Will save against the Scrying. A Dispel Magic might work, but the Scrying magic is already affecting the target. Nothing in the Nondetection description indicates that it is retroactive, in fact the wording in it discusses what happens if a creature already protected by Nondetection has a divination cast on him. My personal take is that if a spell does not state that it does xyz, then it does not. I tend to not extrapolate beyond what is actually written there. For example, Protection From Evil does state that it suppresses domination magic during its duration. Nondetection has no such language regarding divinations. If a DM does rule that the Nondetection allows for a caster level check, then each individual Scry would need a different caster level check. The Nondetection target would be invisible to each sensor for which a caster level check was failed. [/QUOTE]
