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.

Stone Spider

Creature 5 (rare) — celestial

The tradition of venerating spiders as wards against vermin, pests, and evil in general far predates the modern jorogumo rule, with stone spiders filling a role similar to stone lions. Stone spider guardian beasts can be found perched on plinths near town and village entrances, standing motionless—for generations in some cases—so that many locals have forgotten their local guardian is anything more than a decoration.

Anchored Soul — The stone spider is bonded to a specific settlement and must remain within 10 miles of the settlement's border.

Bonded Vessel — The condition of a stone spider's vessel dictates its maximum HP. Undamaged, the vessel is an object with 62 HP (BT 31). When the stone spider is in spirit form, damaging it doesn't hurt the vessel, but damaging the vessel deals an equal amount of damage to the stone spider. When the stone spider Inhabits its Vessel, they're a single target, and damage reduces the HP of both the stone spider and the vessel. If the vessel is broken, the stone spider can still fight while inhabiting it and suffers no ill effect, but if the vessel is ever destroyed, the stone spider is instantly slain and can't reconstitute.

Reconstitution (divine) — When the stone spider reaches 0 Hit Points, their spirit dissipates. If their bonded vessel is intact, the stone spider re-forms in this vessel after 2d4 days, fully healed. If the vessel is broken, they must first be Repaired, after which the stone spider re-forms in 3d4 days.

Inhabit Vessel (manipulate) — The spider touches and melds with their bonded vessel, bringing it to life. It can cease Inhabiting its Vessel by spending a single action, which has the concentrate trait. While Inhabiting the Vessel, it loses its fly Speed and gains Immunities healing, nonlethal Resistances physical 6 (except bludgeoning) Speed 25 feet, climb 25 feet and the following Strike. Melee 1 stone fangs +14 (finesse), Damage 2d8+7 piercing

Spirit Body — When not Inhabiting their Vessel, the stone spider is incorporeal and gains resistance 6 to all damage (except force damage, Ghost Touch , spirit, and vitality; double resistance against non-magical).

Spirit Web Trap (divine, force) — A creature hit by the stone spider's web attack is Immobilized and stuck to the nearest surface until it Escapes.
