An amulet of non-detection wouldn't be good enough at this level unless he commissioned one made at a higher caster level (if you deem that possible). A permanent dimensional lock or forbiddance or something similar on his living quarters would do the job nicely though.  Possibly even a hallow/unhallow with an attached anti-scrying spell of some kind? Perhaps a psionic teleport divert item if you have psionics in your world (or, indeed, a magical equivalent).If we are talking about situation 2 I think he will have to rely upon his allies being present to help, and situational "terrain" beenfits he can enjoy - e.g. if the wizard is expected any moment now slip on that fire resistance ring and activate your "wall of fire" defence which you stand in. Better yet would be a wall of sonics, which isn't visible when someone scrys. Wizard teleports in and takes damage while he tries to cast imprisonment. 2d6+15 damage (or whatever) will really spoil his chances of getting a spell off, no matter what his concentration skill is!</blockquote>
