Monster Generator is an open source program used to create new monsters for Pathfinder D&D.

The program will create a monster with whatever type, powers, feats, and skills you like and calculate the stats for them automatically to make sure it has numbers appropriate for whatever Challenge Rating you intend. It can also create entirely random monsters with the push of a button.

You can download it for free here:

For details about how to use it, consult the README file. You can watch the tutorial here if you get stuck or are curious about some of the features: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h2CWaaSTCVw

I'm always looking for more feedback about it, or ways to improve the program! Feel free to post suggestions here or any bugs you might find. I just barely finished version 1.00 a few days ago, which took a lot of suggestions from users to improve the interface. You can look up very specific logs of what changed in the README file.

(This is the old thread for the program, I decided to make a new one after so much changed. http://paizo.com/threads/rzs2p5fa?Free-program-to-generate-new-pathfinder-D D#1 )

Hope you like it!

I've designed a program in Java to automatically calculate stats for monsters. It's already completed (in beta) and I've posted it for free on SourceForge here: https://sourceforge.net/projects/monstergenerato/files/

It takes input for a monster's desired type, size, and CR and calculates their hit dice, then lets you spend their attributes, feats, skills, and select their powers. It'll crunch all the numbers for you. Alternatively, you can even randomize parts of a monster or the entire thing.

If you have feedback about it (i.e.-features you'd like to see, bugs, or suggestions for the interface) I'd appreciate hearing about it here or you can notify me on sourceforge about it under that project. I've personally found it saves me about an hour per monster, which is awesome. It prints the resulting stats in text form so you can easily edit them to your liking (ex- changing fire to cold, or something). I hope you like it!

A few questions that I had a hard time inferring:

1a Can a Magus casting 'chill touch' use the feature spellstrike to deliver multiple touches in one round?
1b Do you need to use spell combat (or can you, even) to deliver the extra touches past the first?

2 Can the trait magical lineage turn a level 1 spell into a level 0 spell (and thus make it a cantrip) if you apply a +0 level metamagic feat or feature to it?

3 Using Monstrous Physique III and IV, can you assume huge size of a monstrous humanoid race that isn't normally huge to get the size bonus? I checked and there are no monstrous humanoids that are regularly huge in the Paizo beastiary.
