Okay, so I'm playing a psion(seer) in a 3.5e campaign, with all WotC 3.5e books available.

Brief backstory: Ben Jackson was exiled from his hometown when it was discovered that he had been scrying on the women's bath house. One of his major goals is to become such a powerful seer that he can scry on other planes, so that he can watch angels bathe.

So for character reasons, I'm focusing primarily on clairsentience/scrying powers (albeit with a few damage or utility powers each power level, especially where there aren't any good clairsentience powers available.)

My problem is this: I'd kind of like to enter a prestige class at some point, but I haven't found any I like.

There seem to only be a handful of manifesting PrCs that are any good, and of those, none have much synergy with this concept.

I think my DM may allow me to convert a spellcasting PrC into a manifesting PrC, but I'd like to have a specific class in mind before I bring the request to him.

So: what in the way of decent divination-focused PrCs are there which would be easy to adapt to this purpose?

I just started playing in a campaign where the cleric is taking levels in divine oracle (complete divine). We've only had a few short sessions, so I javent gotten to see any of the divination yet, so I can't give an option on how good it is. It's for spell casters, but you may be able to alter it for psions.

Divine Oracle is an obvious choice but would require some tweaking by your DM. Say, instead of the whole Oracle domain, simply get a +2 manifester level on all Clairsentience powers. Most of the other abilities are fine though and super-evasion is potent + flavorful.

Alternatively - dip Rogue/Shadowmind, then go for Psionic Unseen Seer with Practiced Manifester.
