Welcome to Easthaven[edit | edit source]
The old city of Easthaven has butted up against the Atlantic since the establishment of colonies in New England. With this comes a long and storied history of vibrant trade, industry, and dark tales. The Old World's ancient fears and folktales are real among the cobbled streets of a city straddling the Old World and the New.
Three On A Match is a modern fantasy and supernatural RPG set in the fictional city of Easthaven, MA. We draw inspiration from works such as Call of Cthulhu, The Dresden Files, Hellboy, gothic horror, folklore, and mythology as we explore the life and times of supernatural creatures, spooky spectres, and witchy humans.
Extensive knowledge of our inspirations and urban fantasy is not necessary for this site, nor is a deep investment in site-wide plots or events. It is perfectly fine to simply play slice-of-life plots if that is more your speed. The events we run on the site cover a range of genres and cater to a variety of roleplaying styles and interests, some are more social in nature, but all events also have a PVE combat element to them.
