Absorb Energy

When targeted by an attack or ability that uses ki points, Vitae Devoro absorb's a number of ki points equal to the number of ki points used in the attack or ability. 

For every creature killed by Vitae Devoro, it absorbs 1 ki point. unless that creature is a monk, then it absorb as many ki points as the monk had when it was killed.

For every ki point absorbed, increase the Ki Score of the Vitae Devoro. (max Ki Score  10)

For every rank in Ki Score Vitae Devoro gains + 5 Temp HP, + 1 DEX, + 1 STR, and + 5 ft in all movements. (For every 2 ranks in Ki Score Vitae Devoro gains +1 AC (DEX bonus) and +1 melee damage(STR bonus)).

These HP and ability modifiers are only temporary. Vitae Devoro loses 1 rank in Ki Score every 12 hours.

As you roll for initiative, roll an additional 1d6, use that number to determine the amount of ki points Vitae Devoro has already absorbed, and add that value to its initiative. 

Reflexive Form: The Vitae Devoro gains the benefits of the disengage action whenever it takes the dash action.

Evasion: When Vitae Devoro is subjected to an effect that allows it to make a DEX saving throw to take only half damage, Vitae Devoro doesn't take any damage if it succeeds on its saving throw, and only half damage on a failed saving throw.

Slash and Prowl: Vitae Devoro has advantage on DEX(Stealth) checks against creatures it has damaged within the last minute (10 rounds).

Description

An extremely large 6 legged panther. over 8 ft tall, 14 ft long, and about 6 ft wide, this cat like beast is the bane of all predators, or any of strength.

This is a true apex predator, nothing can match its strength, or speed. Its long legs can carry it at a staggering 60 ft walking pace. but  its true strength is devotion, it puts all of its energy into growing bigger and stronger, with its sense of the life it has no trouble finding prey, and no living thing is absent from its hunger. 

All males grow large veins along the surface of there backs, forming patterns in there fur. these veins glow brighter the more energy(ki) they have absorbed.

The females are attracted to the glowing patterns and only mate with the strongest of males.  

It should also be noted that these beasts are somewhat intelligent, and have been know to keep some of their stronger victims alive as long as possible, in order to continually feed off of them.
