-The Ki warrior had to have been absorbed by you and be of a CR rating equal to or less than your monk level plus proficiency modifier. The creature retains all its abilities in life however it has half its hit points and if it attacks with melee it does not add any modifiers to damage and only rolls damage die, if it casts a spell the damage is halved.

-You can only summon one Ki warrior at a time and it must remain within 60 ft of you or revert back into a gem.
-The creature remains for 1 hour or until destroyed. You may do this an amount of times equal to half your proficiency modifier (rounded up) per long rest.

Absorb Ki Warrior

When a creature dies within 30 ft of you, you can attempt to absorb its Ki essence, transforming it into a tiny sized gem that appears in your hand.it is whatever gem type you desire and is translucent with a faint image of the absorbed creature inside.
-When you see the creature die as a reaction you can attempt to absorb it, your modifier equals your wisdom modifier + amount of Ki spent (minimum 1) + number of D4 equal to half proficiency modifier rounded up. after rolling to attempt you can sacrifice Ki gems to improve your chances, for every absorbed creature you sacrifice you gain a +1 to the roll to capture. the DC for capture is equal to the creatures CR rating (DM only discloses CR rating after the capture attempt is finished.).
-You can absorb a total amount of creatures equal to half your monk level rounded up.
