In places like Bytopia or the Outlands where petitioners can look exactly the same as equivalent prime/planar races, I played the difference coming across in their personalities. Talk to a body for a bit and it almost always becomes glaringly obvious that they're a petitioner because of how they obsessively talk about their faith/philosophy/moral views, the grandeur and greatness of their home plane/pantheon/deity, and often by subtle cues that petitioners from that plane have in common. For example, Outlander petitioners often have little ledgers books where they keep a tally of their deeds, matching lawful acts with chaotic ones, balancing evil acts with good ones, making sure they never stray too far in any one extreme. See an Outlander scribbling in a little notebook after a trade, casting furtive glances to make sure no one's looking over his shoulder, and there's a good chance you've found a petitioner.</blockquote>
