Balgin, it's random who gets to be awake and who doesn't when you're attacked while sleeping. I would guess that a character with High Senses is less likely to be surprised, but again, that's a guess. After you've gotten to level 11 and have a good enough skill, get the Shadow Hound Spell. It lasts a LONG time after you cast it and it will make sure everyone wakes up when attacked.

That's a good way to get exp. Cast Shadow hound and camp a lot in crowded areas. When you're attacked while sleeping, the monsters are always right on top of you so you don't have to run at them and let them get a few free shots on you. This is also a tactic to use if you see a group of monsters in the distance you want to fight, but you think they may kick your butt from range, or while you're trying to close the distance.... just camp and boom, they're right there in front of you, ready to die.
