Voracious eaters

The Organization tells the public that Awakened Beings are voracious eaters, however, true voracious eaters do exist. Voracious eaters are the natural evolution of the yoma and seem to be more intelligent, stronger, and harder to kill than the typical yoma. They also seem to eat more than the average yoma as well, eating as much as a small group of 2-3 yoma.  Yoma generally become voracious eaters after devouring many other yoma, increasing their power with each meal.  It is possible this is similar to seasoning in that yoma yoki is extremely similar between all yoma, unlike claymores and awakened beings, so the amount of yoki possessed by a yoma can be increased by absorbing the similar-typed yoki of other yoma.
One example of a voracious eater would be the yoma Grace fought in Natrice. The particular yoma sought out easy prey in red light districts where there were many people wandering around but few actually watching their surroundings. It hid in a graveyard, strategically killing its victims to hide its presence. When it fought Grace, it demonstrated enhanced strength, swinging tombstones around easily and was strong enough to kill Grace's low ranking friend, the claymore Mercia.
