The Mountain of Chains
Despite the name, the Mountain is not merely a single mountain but a section of the Planes that is covered in them. Rising high above everything else in the Planes (except the Fell Monolith), higher than any mountains on the mortal plane dare go, the Mountain is a cold, bleak place. Despite the image that the name might suggest, there are not chains festooning each peak.
The Mountain is the prison for the Hellspawn. As per any living and thinking creature, there are those that go outside the realm of the rules that have been put into place. One of the rules of the Hellspawn is that while they may meddle in mortal affairs, they are not allowed to become truly involved in them. For example: while a Rukbil may spawn the chaos that causes a new war on the mortal plane and leads to new versions of their kind forming, they may not fight in such a war on behalf of the mortals.
Hellspawn who have broken such rules are bound in the Mountain, chains wound through horns and flesh and bone to bind them to the cliffs. Above it all sits the massive form of Castoor, a Hossum of wind and fire who appears as a massive bird of prey, large enough to snatch up a Rukbil in their claws.
