[Mr. Strange]

It's a trap! No, wait, wrong game. There's no hooker here...

It's still a trap. We didn't get much healing done so facing them goes to the category "not smart". Go trough the window?

[3man75]

Quickly observe for more routes. if at all be ready to run and scream like a little girl.

[Carp its whats for dinner]

try to use some of those emotions as power to gain strength or to attack

[Mlamlah]

Trader of Favors, a Pactbinder.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Physical traits
Weary and Weak My power has been drained from me entirely, it will take time for my significantly weaker body to adjust to the shock.
Various Minor Injuries These things take a toll on me for now, but they will fade in time, especially if i can find some source of power to feed on...

Skills
Mercantilism (+5) Without skill in bargaining a pact-binder would be next to useless at his trade. My dealings with folks all over the multiverse give me a strong understanding of basic economics of all sorts.
Power Brokering (+5) I am quite skilled in the subtle magic of transferring and consuming power, and in reaping the maximum Spritual benefit from my dealings with mortals
Clerical Skill (+5) I know how to keep careful records and write contracts without loopholes. I'm also handy at digging through information quickly and effectively.

You draw sword from scabbard and quickly appraise your routes of escape, but find those few avenues wanting. The only way that does not require you to rush into the arms of an attacker is through the window.
Bashing the Window 1d20+2(hell-forged sword)-2(physically weak)= 17
The weak rotten wood is easily cleared away with two crude hacks of your sword, and you scramble through the window, leaving the potential assailants in the allyway behind you.

The home you find yourself in is not currently occupied, but shows signs of residency. Various toys and posessions are left scattered on the floor and clothes are draped over various pieces of furniture. Unlit candles are scattered throughout the room, and on a nearby table lies an open book, and a crude iron cudgel. There is a nearby stairway going up a set of stairs, but this floor seems to be one large common area. 
The Front door is only a few strides away, allowing for a quick getaway if you so wish. Though it also strikes you that this would be a good spot for an ambush if they try to pursue you through the window.

[3man75]

Through the front door i say then. No use sticking about in a dusty/abandoned house when we've got our own as is.

[WhitiusOpus]

Why are we running? This is the perfect time to gain some mortal suffering!

Wait by the edge of where we broke in. When our per sure comes through, stab him in the stomach.

A stomach wound should give us plenty of suffering. We are a Daemon, after all.

[3man75]

what if there's more than one? We're not exactly trained in the art of killing y'all know?

[Mr. Strange]

+1. Remember to interrogate if he/she survives long enough.

[TealNinja]

I thought we were formerly in the demon army, before we came into power.

Compared to mortal men, we should be gladiators.

Your character does not remember any of that happening, that wasn't part of the memory and skills that you protected when you were banished. Part of your sentence was to have your memory wiped, but you did what you could to maintain some of those memories. If you go back you will find that "Trader of Favors" was the only background that was picked.

Sword still drawn, you lie in ambush underneath the window, prepared to thrust at anyone who enters through the window. Your grip on the sword is weak and unsure, but demon-steel and a prepared strike may prove to be all the advantage you need. Outside, you hear a deep gruff voice shout, urging some companion to go after you through the window. All the better prepared, you tighten your grip on your sword.

Swordsmanship 1d20+2(demon sword)+2(lying in ambush)-2(physically weak)-4(untrained swordsman.)= 7 Vs. 1d20+?-2(unprepared for attack)= 4

Your thrust is clumsy, but your attacker is caught entirely unprepared. Gracefully he swings through the open window, prepared for pursuit, but not prepared for a blade to cleanly skewer the thick muscle in his leg. He howls in pain and falls awkwardly to the floor, the unnaturally sharp blade cleaving apart his muscle and coming free as he falls. You are no judge of human anatomy, but you have probably crippled the man, if you havn't cursed him to a slow death by bleeding out.

Suffering begins to bleed from the man, your keen demonic hunger drawing your attention. Unfortunately it would take time for you to draw in that which you have not yet developed a metabolism for, and you may yet have another attacker to deal with.

[3man75]

Continue to make a run for it in the alley ways.

Hopefully whoever else is following us will be more interested in helping their friend on the ground rather than continuing the pursuit.

[Carp its whats for dinner]

Use some of the hoard to try and slay them all, or strengthen yourself, or protect and heal yourself, or at least dazzle them so that he can get away

[Carp its whats for dinner]

if all are stunned, finish them with sword, collect suffering and let one go to finally get some debt

[Mr. Strange]

Go deeper into the appartment, try to get away from that alley and make your way home.
