Not strictly vampires, these natives of D'loc-Aloc drink blood and devour internal organs of their prey. They are able to shift between leopard, human, and hybrid forms at will. They are often cunning and intelligent creatures, insinuating themselves into human cities and culling the weak from the heard, so to speak. Creatures bitten by a forvalaka risk being transformed into one. This inherited template can be added to any humanoid or monstrous humanoid creature.
