The plane of Concordant Opposition was the center of the Great Wheel of Outer Planes. It connected to all other Outer Planes and was truly neutral in alignment. Other names for this plane were Godsland and Friendly Opposition. Some characteristics of this plane were ascribed to the World Tree cosmology unaligned planes of Cynosure and the Fugue Plane when that cosmology became popular. Both of these planes survived the Spellplague to float in the Astral Sea.

Concordant Opposition was the exception to many of the rules governing the Outer Planes, the first being its lack of alignment or true neutrality. It was an infinite plane, yet it had a definite center. The properties of all the other Outer Planes were mixed together in Concordant Opposition. Good, Evil, Law, and Chaos existed here in all their forms, but they were less able to affect each other due to the neutralizing effect of this plane.

Description
This plane defied description by changing the perception of those who entered, becoming a completely new and yet familiar plane with each visit. Typically on the first visit the plane appeared as a larger version of the visitor's homeland. (A farmer would see vast farmland, a scribe would see a huge library for example.) Subsequent visits would reveal a different face but demesnes remained in the same spatial location&mdash;a city on one visit might be a forest with inhabitable trees on the next&mdash;chaotic variation but with the same order and placement.

Concordant Opposition had a neutralizing effect on the randomness of weapons and spells, reducing all healing and damage to the minimum possible while having no effect on strength or magical bonuses. In addition to this, magic itself was gradually neutralized as you approached the center of the plane (which appeared as a huge mountain, tree, fountain, tornado, tower, column, etc.). At about a thousand miles (1,600 km) out, high-level spells ceased to function. Every hundred miles (160 km) or so, lower level spells would begin to fail, until finally at two hundred miles (320 km) from the center even first-level spells would not function. This applied to divine magic and the power of the gods as well. Therefore, this ring around the center of the plane became a meeting place, bazaar, and common ground used by every intelligent species of the Outer Planes including greater deities of differing alignments. Moving in closer to the center, at about one hundred miles (160 km), all chemical reactions ceased to function and even the gods could not get any closer to the center of the plane.
