Way of the Psionic Hand

Where Arcanists of all types use their gifts and studies to tap into the arcane lines connecting the elements of the material plane; Psionicists push against the boundaries of the astral plane to impose their will upon reality... Practitioners of the Psionic Hand, spend hours training their bodies to handle the strain of connecting so closely to the astral plane, and their minds to send ripples into the boundary and change reality. A master of the Psionic Hand's manipulation of reality and its surroundings is so complete that they can fight a duel while enjoying a cup of tea.
