Bloodthirst A Niev does not need to eat or drink thanks to their Necroabbersite. Instead, they must feed off blood else be lost forever. However, different Revenants are able to stave off their blood lust for various amounts of time

Staving off Thirst.

It is usually not wise to ignore the bloodlust, but it can be done. For each week that you don't consume blood, you must make a DC 10 Constitution saving throw, or suffer a level of bloodlust. After the first week, the DC increases by 5 for each consecutive 24-hour period without blood. You must re-roll the saving throw every day after a past week without drinking blood.

Drinking Blood.

You are able to drink the blood of any humanoid. When you do, remove 1 level of Blood Lust. Also, you can drain blood during a Long Rest as long as you have a willing ally. This does not interrupt either character's long rest.

Blood Lust.

This occurs whenever you fail to stave off your bloodthirst. There are six levels, just like with Exhaustion.

Level One: Disadvantage on Ability Checks.

Level Two: Speed halved.

Level Three: Disadvantage on attack rolls, saving throws, and spellcasting rolls.

Level Four: Hit point maximum halved.

Level Five: Speed reduced to 0.

Level Six: You are now one of the Lost, a mindless beast. This character is forever lost, aside from a Wish spell.

Optional rule. Your DM may make wisdom saves (DC 16) to resist bloodlust after at least 5 days of not drinking blood. on a failed save, you attack the creature closest to you each turn until you drain some blood.

Lost becoming a lost means becoming an aberration (stats chosen by the DM), a monster in search of blood and victims to be brutally killed.
