Monster Builder 1.0


Homebrew and House Rules


15 people marked this as a favorite.

With the recently released monster creation rules I thought it would be helpful to have a tool that integrates these rules and spits out a nice stat block.

Introducing Monster Builder 1.0! This tool turns all of the tables in the monster creation rules into a series of drop down menus that output a recommended value for each of the monster's statistics. You can tweak these to a final value of your liking. Once you are finished there is both a plain text output as well as an HTML output that mimics the formatting of monster stat blocks on Archives of Nethys.

If you find any bugs, or have comments or feature suggestions let me know!


Huzzah! I was hoping someone would do this

Only viewed from my phone but it looks to be exactly what I would want from such a tool

I'm pretty sure it was your comment that inspired this originally. :-D


Oh wow thank you

It is something that immediately jumped to mind when I was reading the document. And was something I knew was possible in excel but beyond my abilities

Weirdly I might have tried to teach myself how to do it this weekend if something hadn't materialised! But it has and I am delighted

This is amazing, thank you. :D


Update to version 1.1.

Changes in this version:

  • * Added a reset function
  • * Added a 'Copy Recommended to Final' function to more quickly create creatures.
  • * Added a Roadmap function that allows you to quickly set up the tool to any of the basic roadmaps
  • * Added directions for a (maybe?) simpler way to export the HTML.
  • * Fixed a bunch of bugs.


I'm in the process of converting some PF1 modules to PF2, and using the 1.1 version for getting new monster statblocks ready. It's a fantastic tool!
