Contract of forfeit breath is a contract used to challenge Yama to a more difficult fight for the top piece of the purifying sigil. It can be dropped by Yama himself through opening dossiers, or via black, greater, and lesser demons in the Chasm of Fire after the player has agreed to Yama's terms by speaking to him after A Kingdom Divided.

To obtain this contract from the demons in the Chasm of Fire, they must be killed with bind spells, or while bound. The drop rate will double while the purple sigil is active above their heads. Players can speak to the Disciple of Yama outside the chasm to learn about which sigil is currently active.

The contract is consumed upon starting the fight, although if successful the challenger will receive the contract again as a drop. Yama will not drop standard loot upon completion of this contract.

When the player fights Yama after signing the contract of forfeit breath, the following changes apply:

• The player's run energy is passively drained by 1% every 4 ticks.
• Yama drains run energy percentage equal to damage dealt.
• The player dies if their run energy reaches 0%.
• Fire Streaks and Shadow Waves during phases 1 and 2 behave as if they were one phase ahead (ex. criss-crossed Shadow Waves in phase 1 and double Shadow Waves in phase 2)

Additionally, the following changes also apply for all sigil contracts:

• Yama must be defeated alone.
• Yama's attack cycle is accelerated from 8-tick to 7-tick.
• Yama does two standard attacks before a special attack; glyphs respawn faster.
• Shadow Waves and Fire Streaks appear more frequently and do significantly more damage.
• Special attacks in phase 1 land 1 tick earlier than usual.
• Phase transition thresholds trigger at 75% and 50% health.
• The Judge of Yama throws fire bombs every 3 ticks, and throws two per attack.
• Shadow Waves and Shadow Crashes are more frequent in phase 3.

• Reading the contract.
• The contract prior to the 29 May 2025 update re-enabling demonbane.
• Placeholder text before terms were released

• The Morse code written on the item is intended to spell the word "CONTRACT". However, the "A" (.-) is erroneously written as "N" (-.), so it says "CONTRNCT" instead, and this mistake is present in all of Yama's contracts.
