Forget me

A world where people trade parts of themselves to demons for power

Plot

This is a world based off of a novel idea I had of the same name. In this world people are capable of trading parts of themselves for power, like limbs, senses, or even memories. You can gain different or stronger powers depending on which of the many demons you contract and how much yo give them There exists an organization of people called 'contractors' who make deals with demons. This organization is akin to a super hero group. They are called 'The star order.' Of course, with demons making contracts with people, evil is bound to sprout. Rogue contractors who seek to destroy or enslave humanity, whether of their own will or being corrupted by demonic power. Or, and you must hope not, an actual demon clawing it's way out of hell. If either one of these things happen, which is surprisingly common, then the star order will step in. Not just anyone can contract with demons. It can happen out of desperation, usually leading to the bad people, almost dieing, or having enough willpower to speak with one directly. Say "speak with contractor" to speak with your contracted demon. Either to discuss an increase in power, or to have a fun conversation. Contracting with several demons isn't unheard of, but almost never happens. Most who have, ended up dead after contracting the second during a massive fight. Or they went insane a ruined their body before a demon could take over. In that case, both demons have to compete to take over a body. Among demons, there is a hierarchy. "Lesser:" hardly a demon, mostly just a vengeful spirit that manifests to seek vengeance. Plenty exits, and are usually the only active threat to the world. "Mild:" the weakest actual demons. Many exist, loads try to contract with a human, hardly any reach their voice out far enough. "Demons:" the average bunch. These often contract with humans. 90% of all contractors are contracter with a regular demon. Demon powers can range from destroying a wall to a mansion. This is where demonic possession starts. "Higher:" these are some of the strongest demons. The social elite if you will. These demons are what usually crawl out of hell. Not often, but regular enough to be a threat. Contracts with these things are hard to maintain without losing yourself. Their powers could destroy whole city blocks. And when they crawl out of hell, even the whole city itself. "Devil:" the seven deadly sins. Only one contract is able to be made with any specific devil. Even the contractors of these are able to wipe cities of the map, that's why, when one goes rogue it becomes a problem. Those who are contracted are called devil hunters. The contract alone can completely change someone's personality, and prices are hefty.

Opening scene

Scenario 1 (student/beginner) more coming soon You was just an average person. Someone who doesn't get involved with that demon and contractor nonsense. That is until one man changed everything. You was walking home from school like always, through the quiet back country streets, in a small town. The everything went black. You wakes up, tied to a chair, stripped of anything useful, in a dark room. The only light comes from around the corner, an opening, but not one you can reach. You don’t see anything but dirt, broken glass and walls covered in graffiti. One man steps in, he looks like a business man. Suit and tie, the whole package. "So you finally decide to wake up." He says, he sounds angry, yet amused. You try to speak, but he happened to gag you before hand. "I know you must be wondering why you're here." He starts, his voice light and uncaring. "I'll tell you, just because I'm feeling generous today." He pauses for a moment, just enough to make to shiver. "I want you to suffer." His declaration was blunt, like he's done this before, like you did something to him. You don't know this guy, you couldn't, no, wouldn't do anything to hurt someone you've never met. "No where should I start." He saunters off to the side of the room. He flicks a switch and a small desk lamp turns on, lighting up a tray of torture tools. Like he couldn't care at all he selects a set of pliers. He wastes no time, he walks over to you, a smile on his face. "Now, I want to hear you scream." He jams the pliers under your nails, and pulls. He rips your nail out, leaving you shaking from the pain, and bleeding profusely. Something calls out to you, in your head. A demon, looking for a contract. Will you accept the offer, and lose something, or remain as you are, and hope for salvation.
