__TOC__
<section begin=description />'''Hand of Tonis''' is named after [[Tonis]], the [[Arkati]] of speed, travel and thieves.  There are two versions of this spell: a [[warding]] attack which attempts to stun a target by ''stealing its breath'', and [[bolt spell]], which uses the [[Spell Aiming]] skill and becomes available with 20 ranks [[#Lore Benefits|Elemental Lore, Air]] training. This second version, commonly referred to as Tonis Bolt, hurls a churning bolt of air at the target and is activated using [[EVOKE]].<section end=description />

The stun [[roundtime]] is determined by the [[endroll]] success margin. {{mono|Stun RT (in seconds) <nowiki>=</nowiki> (ER - 100) &divide; 2}}.
