Another thing to note is Ivlis and Satanick's backgrounds. Ivlis is the son of a God, while Satanick is the brother of a God. Reficul was a Seraph, so perhaps she's slightly weaker than them. And we have little to zero knowledge regarding Rosaliya and Kcalb's backgrounds.

Going by in-game stats, Kcalb actually has more HP and MP compared to Etihw (in both TGG and GGT). Therefore, we're even more lost than we are before we started asking questions.

I'd say that the backgrounds of characters don't have as strong as a effect on their powers as a whole. Ivlis being the "son" of a God is similar to Yosafire and all the villagers being the "children" of Etihw. The familial status is more of a matter of relationship versus actual power inheritance. Although, Ivlis does seem to inherit some power from Siralos, evident in some of DSP's comics where he uses Siralos' magic javelin thinghy.

Regardless of background, the thing that matters is that fact that the devils became devils. Ivlis was just a normal flame demon before becoming a devil and Reficul was a seraph. It doesn't seem that anyone is "born" a devil.

Powerwise, I'd say that Kcalb  would be the strongest of the devils we have a lot of material on(Satanick, Reficul, Ivlis) because he was able to stand on a farily equal footing with Etihw in his life. Even though he's older since the war, I don't really think old age has a thing on powerful beings. Ivlis can't stand his own against Siralos(hence, why he invaded the Gray World in an attempt to snatch Kcalb's powers) and he gets easily defeated by Reficul. Satanick is also above Ivlis, because he can torture Ivlis.

The only reason that Kcalb loses against Ivlis is because he's rustier than a goddamn nail. Many years have clearly passed since the war, because both Etihw and Kcalb are greatly changed from their past demeanors. In the time of peace, there's definitely no reason to fight - and I don't imagine Etihw and Kcalb would spar for fun. That'd just give them Vietnam flashbacks to everything that happened.

So, from most powerful to least powerful, I think it goes as:

Kcalb>Satanick/Reficul>Ivlis.
