The traditional D&D devil arc revolves around a "Devils Contract". The classic D&D trope is that devils contracts are long and riddled with fine print that can come back to bite the PCs - remember, devils are evil, but they are lawful evil.
In the case of your PC, I'd probably give them some boon, but some other curse to balance it out. A very RAW solution might be forcing them to trade a level in their class for a level in "Devil's Pact" Warlock.
If you're looking for modern inspiration, check out the "Wyll" character from Baldur's Gate 3.
