When the earthquake happened, the whole world felt it, they felt the 6th seal shatter and hell was unleashed on earth. Woman, children, and men were all slaughtered by the one they called Asmodeus. While the gods took their chosen and watched their crying and twisted bodies from above unable to assisst due to their own rules. From the malformed creatures called demons who ran amok killing and draining souls and blood a dark light appeared. Devils carrying great power, but as always with a price decided by a contract. Their powers needed a soul to feast on otherwise they weren't any stronger than humans, and for those humans who signed it, they could command and control the devil.
However the devils didn't come merely to farm souls, they themselves had goals as well that they needed to achieve. The contract was an agreement that the human could borrow the powers of the devil using their souls as fuel and if they completed the devil’s wish they could keep their soul and gain a powerful blessing but normally a contract must be mutual or it wouldn't be signed. Humans using this power pushed Asmodeus back to his domain and he sealed himself in, so he could lick his wounds. With the gates shut the devils couldn't return and demons still ravaged the land halting human growth
A contract to a devil was the ultimate vow of trust since they were under the humans command but if the human forced a devil to do something completely unreasonable or against their will they would lose a seal, if all three were lost the human would lose their soul and the contract would be annulled. To a human who signs the contract they find it to bind to an item, whatever the contract was forged on whether it be a watch or even a simple trinket, these are often called focuses and can tell the human the condition of their soul
This is the story of the people becoming contractors to devils who work with them in order to achieve both goals. As Asmodeus waits to regain enough strength to massacre those who did him harm.
------Humans
Humans goals could be as simple as to find their family they were separated with during the calamity, so they forge a contract since the devils goal is to locate a weapon they lost realizing he’d be able to cover much ground and use his power the contract is made and they head out on their journey.
------Devils
A devil is different from a demon in the fact that they were once angels who fell and cannot use their powers since they no longer have souls to draw off of. They contract for purposes of their own from seeking fortune to finding love. Their power can range from increasing gravity to freezing things to ice but to limitations, by using the full force of energy the contractor’s soul is being drained quickly so most only use limited power and sparingly since if they fully exhaust their contractor they will be weakened. Although some devils look like regular humans there are some that are outlandish looking although all of them are humanoid.
------Contracts
The contract is an agreement that the human may use the devils power in exchange for the amount of life force it takes in this the contractor creates a focus out of whatever the contract was made with that only the contractor can read. The contract can only be completed by fulfilling the desires of both parties and the contractor will receive the devil’s blessing and be returned the missing part of their soul, the contract is sealed with blood and by vow.
