The context, as far as I can recall, was what someone would sell their soul for, regardless of the consequences. There really wasn't a basis for how it was done, such as calling upon a demon and going to Hell if you sold your soul, or if your soul, instead of taking its natural course after death, ended up in some other circumstances/condition.

Besides, it's my job to make things more complicated. Don't put me out of work... Please? *Gives the googly eyes of DOOM*

But consequences make the situation, would you say the average person sells their soul to Jesus for "Eternal life"

They don't consider it as selling. They give themselves. Or, if you want to use church-speak, you donate yourself.

Of course they don't think that's how it works... thus i am trying to get a proper definition to work from.

You're asking me this?

Healing. Purpose. Hope.

Words fail me... But I know why I did it. Do you?
Tell me, for what price would you give up hope?
Would you follow the will o' the wisp of the brightest morning star?
How far?

Lian:

It's not about who or what they sacrifice their soul to, but what you would accomplish regardless of whatever consequence there would be for having no soul.

Sophia:

No, I asked that group of cannibals over there. Are you a cannibal member? ;p

I think I know why. Pretty much for the same thing as yourself, though not as a direct result of selling my soul. I would sell my soul to get another soul, one to my specifications, because I'm not satisfied with the one that I have. And through this new soul I would have a greater chance of accomplishing that which I've hoped and failed to do with this one.

I actually did sell my soul back in third grade for lunch money... and again in sixth for a bag of Fritos... and this is 100% serious, I'm not posting this in-character.

I don't think there's anything that would satisfy me to sell something that's one of a kind.

But I take a scientific stance on the term soul, which is just a poetic word for 'mind'. Which only makes it more special, and something one cannot live without.

Arguably though, Nekkid is mindless and has made claims to me to be a vegetable XD =p Which makes me wonder what Nekkid traded her mind in for

I would sell my soul for the power of manipulating the form of myself and all who venture too near me. The ability to shape minds, bring fear, and cast down all who oppose me into a madness in which only I can deem for them to awaken from. The power to understand the inner workings of the very cosmos themselves and live the extended life span of eons...

I would sell my soul to become an Old One... not the weird blobby ones, a huminoid one...What? I can have dreams to! :D

I took the term "soul" both ways. In regard to the spiritual kind, I want to break away and make it on my own in case my life just becomes a small part of another being (you know, if there's reincarnation). As for my physical mind, I'd want a different one (with memories intact), one that actually rapports with my will. Right now I have a bunch of problems that create a situation where I have a key, and I can turn it in the ignition all that I want, but I've got no engine, or at least not a working one. So I'll be a mindless vegetable until such a time that it ever gets resolved. :O
