The Plane of Mirrors is a collection of demiplanes in Dungeons & Dragons that's really freaking obscure and very difficult to find any information on, mainly because you can't Google it without getting a crapload of useless results about physics and refraction.
The classic module Skarda's Mirror largely takes place in a demiplane of mirrors. Most of the plane's native surface is a strange rock that's a perfect mirror regardless of cut, yet has the friction of concrete. Skarda has discovered another substance, a clear rock that looks like Onyx and is suitable for building. This entire demiplane is less than a cubic mile in size and surrounded by thick glass that nobody knows what, if anything, is beyond them. This plane's creator gave it light and water, and Skarda used these to produce food. The plane blocks summoning of fire and earth elementals and the spell Mirror Image is enhanced. The plane is unavoidably flooded at the end of the module.
Mirror planes were again referenced in the Third Edition Manual of the Planes as an optional group of transitive planes. They are small planes that each connect to a group of mirrors that can be located in any other planes throughout the multiverse. A mirror plane takes the form of a long, winding corridor with the mirrors it attaches to hanging like windows along the walls. Mirror planes allow quick travel between the various mirrors that are linked to each, but each plane contains a mirror version of any traveler that enters it. This mirror version has an opposite alignment and will seek to slay their real self to take their place. All mirrors connect to a mirror plane, though each mirror plane usually has only five to twenty mirrors connecting to it.
The Plane of Mirrors has a role in the Shackled City Adventure Path.
The primary natives are the Nerra. They constantly observe the Material Plane, occasionally making forays to kidnap its inhabitants. They are known to wander the planes on missions of reconnaissance and infiltration for a theoretical future invasion. Nerras resemble humanoids with mirrorlike skin. When killed, nerras shatter into thousands of shards. Nerras wield weapons made out of the mirrorlike substance of their home plane. Although they consider themselves superior to Material Plane beings, they try to maintain a neutral outlook on most matters.
However there're also these folks called the Kamerel, who were the original inhabitants of the Outlands before the Rilmani came around. The kamerel fled here after a war with the rilmani, and may or may not have created the nerra.
