A few immediate thoughts:

First, there should probably be some form of limitation to change Chameleon from making the effected creatures hard to detect to making the effected creatures appear to be mundane.

Second, I would definitely give it an Accessibility modifier. Even if supernatural creatures are very rare in the world, they most likely will not be rare in the campaign. In most secret urban fantasy settings I can think of, the number of supernatural creatures is very small; however, those are the creatures that the main characters deal with. In Buffy, 95% of the protagonists or villains were supernatural or illuminated mortals.

Finally, for a warning system for mortals I would base it on Detect(Supernatural), with the vague and reflexive modifiers.
