Pathfinder Bestiary Database

[Shin Bilirubin]

A while back, I created the Pathfinder Bestiary Database, to help with searching for tokens across the growing number of sets available.

It is, however, very clunky and looks a bit rough. I'd like to upgrade to a web-based, easily searchable platform, but unfortunately I don't have the know-how to pull off such a feat. I've copied the data to a Google spreadsheet, and had a look at being able to easily search that, possibly using some sort of web app, but I was wondering if anyone else had experience in this kind of thing and could offer some insight?

Ideally, I'd like to be able to add links to specific searches and allowing others to add to the database. At the moment, the spreadsheet only contains the names, quantities, sizes, set and set number of each pawn. It would be nice to expand this to creature types (as many people sort this way), and possibly other things.

Thanks,
Shin B

I've just been looking for a Pathfinder Bestiary/Monster database/spreadsheet and couldn't find anything online. Did you manage to build anything like this in the end?

I know d20pfsrd.com has all the monsters, but its not exactly a database/spreadsheet app.

I'm a web developer and programmer and would be interested in building something like this. Drop me an email to [e-mail] if you ant to discuss the idea :)

Not sure if you two still care, but I have a spreadsheet with everything up to Bestiary 4.

That is exactly what I've been scouring the internet for.

Wow, I made this 3 years ago! I use it frequently, but never got round to properly updating it, and forgot about this forum thread!

So, it's back and updated with most of the content (It's missing a couple of Adventure Path sets, which I'll get to in a few days, as well as Heroes & Villains, which has no data).

Use the link in the original post, and as before, it's clunky, but works wonders when looking for pawns!

Let me know what you think, and anything I could do to improve it (bearing in mind my excel skills are mid-tier).

Enjoy!
