Can I run Pathfinder 2e without Foundry VTT?

Yes. PathfinderGM is a lightweight browser-based GM dashboard — no modules to install, no server to host. It covers encounter building, initiative and condition tracking, and session prep, and complements an in-person table or any VTT you already use for maps.

Is this an online GM screen for PF2E?

Yes — one screen with your combat tracker, encounter builder, bestiary lookups, campaign notes, and the Golarion calendar side by side.

Does it use the Pathfinder 2e Remaster rules?

Yes. Conditions, creature stat blocks, and vocabulary follow the PF2E Remaster as published, sourced from official bestiary data under the Paizo Community Use Policy and ORC license.

Is PathfinderGM free to use?

Core GM tools — encounter builder, combat tracker, campaign vault, and calendar — are free. AI-powered generation uses a monthly credit allowance with optional top-ups.

Formian Mageslayer

Creature 16 (rare) — formian, mutant

Pre-Remaster content. May include legacy alignment.

Grim, twisted formians forced into existence through the machinations of the King of Biting Ants, formian mageslayers are created for the express purpose of neutralizing and destroying enemy spellcasters. Wired to never sleep, mageslayers are tortured hunters and guardians whose only relief is found in tearing apart the magic and flesh of spellcasters who oppose the King of Biting Ants. Formian mageslayers have wings resembling those of dragonflies and longer, sleeker bodies than most formians.

Abilities

Tremorsense 60 feet — Tremorsense

Telepathy 120 feet (aura, magical) — Telepathy

Hive Mind (primal) — Formians operate from a shared hive intelligence that allows them to communicate nearly instantaneously. While within telepathic range of at least one other formian from the same hive mind, a formian worker gains a +2 circumstance bonus to initiative checks, Perception checks, and saving throws against mental effects. If one formian is aware of a combatant, all members of the hive mind within range are aware of it.

Disrupting Aura (aura, primal) — 30 feet. Formian mageslayers are surrounded by an aura of disruptive energy that disperses magical energy and makes spellcasting difficult for their enemies. Whenever an enemy creature within the aura attempts to Cast a Spell or Activate a magic item, they must roll a DC 5 Flat; on a failed check, the spell or activation is lost and the action is wasted. Free action activations disrupted by this aura can't be attempted again until the start of the activating creature's next turn.

Shred Spell (primal) — If the formian mageslayer succeeds, they counter the spell and use the dispersed energy to gain a number of temporary Hit Points equal to twice the spell's rank for 1 minute. If the formian mageslayer critically fails this counteract check, their disrupting aura deactivates for 1 minute.

Spell Resistance — A formian mageslayer takes 15 fewer damage from any arcane or primal spell that causes damage, and 10 less damage from any divine or occult spell that causes damage.

Stupefying Touch (curse, primal) — A creature damaged by a mageslayer's claw Strike must succeed at a DC 37 Will save. The creature becomes Stupefied 2 for 1 round on a failure. On a critical failure, the creature is stupefied 2 for 1 hour.
