Alpha: If I can see her coming from afar, dodging her isn't going to be a problem. Where lies the problem is that my omnidirectional scanner's radius is only 100m and it can't detect magical energy. However... *thinks for a moment* Maybe... if I can't directly detect supernatural energy, I can still detect the natural energy it emits! Using my photoreceptors, I could calculate the speed of an approaching source of red light based on the amount of blueshift caused by the Doppler effect and compare it to the maximum speed of other beings capable of non-motorized flight. If the former is greater than the latter, then I can conclude it's a Sky Comet Dragon coming my way and quickly sink through the ground with my intangibility.
