Awareness an Alternate Attribute

This is an alternative attribute for my settings, at least on a trial basis. Its based on GURPS Power-Ups 9: Alternate Attributes and some discussion on the SJG forums.

Awareness

20 points/level
You are extremely aware of thngs and always paying attention, even to minor details others over look. This starts at 10 and costs 20 points per level.
It is the controlling attribute for skills based purely on perception and observation as well as Per rolls.
For many skills a keen awareness of whats happening is important but another attribute such as IQ or DX are also fundamental, this includes skill where analysis and reaction are important.
