Ammon's iron fortress hangs from a precipice overlooking the Ditches of the Damned that surround the Ring of Hell known as the Pit of Malbolge. Ammon is attended by a host of werewolves, barbed devils, ghaddar, and his lieutenant, a pit fiend. The 10 ditches are greatly feared by worldly thieves and politicians who know they may very well end up plying eternity among the charlatans, confidence men, seducers, fraudsters, counterfeiters, and betrayers trapped there.
