The Parasite
The parasite could be an alias for a variety of creatures, but they all have one thing in common. They can all steal the life force and powers of others. The parasite who has made a pact with you likely seeks to gain life force from the work you do. The powers you have give you the abilities to redistribute life force and abilities.
