General Information

Porthaven is a fictional town on the East Coast of United States. The name of the state the city belongs to is known, but never explicitly mentioned. When needed, it is refereed to simply as The State. Porthaven is considered to be within driving distance of New York City, but not close enough to make a for a round trip in a single night.

Porthaven is not based on any existing city, and any similarities to real world cities is purely accidental. Porthaven is significantly larger and more populous than any real world city in Northeastern US, and is able to support a rather large population of Kindred.

Outside the city limits there nothing but swamps, forests, mountains and open highways for miles on each side. The next closest town is Quiet Hill, located 3 hours north of the city.
