Looking pretty solid, but I do have a few observations. Drow Blooded for darkvision isnt PFS legal. Pretty much all the drow-related options are illegal in pfs due to drow being universally irredeemably evil on Golarion.
Any particular story reason for the Rhoka? It's a cool weapon, but it's pretty esoteric and generally only seen in the hands of Urdefhan. If that'll work with what you have in mind or give you ideas, awesome. If not, I believe the Urumi is mechanically almost identical, which is also a pretty interesting weapon.
If you really like the elven bonus to concentration and beating SR, there's a feat in the ARG that can nab it for a half-elf.

"How high are you planning on taking this character?" Is the first question I would ask with a magus when planning a build. If you are just planning on getting to 7-8 or so, you will be fine with just intensified, magical lineage shocking grasps. If you are planning on trying to take him all the way and want to focus on Spellstrike builds with Frostbite or Shocking Grasp, then you will need to find some way to 1. Deal with Spell Resistance, and 2. Deal with Energy Resistance/Immunity. If you don't, you will find yourself often feeling weak unless you are fighting nothing but humanoids with class levels.
An admixture wizard dip would take care of 2, but it's somewhat less useful for non-kensai and it will hit your already lackluster BAB and spell progression. If you really have your heart set on 10d6 *insert energy type here* grasps, it's probably the way to go.
For the spell resistance issue, you have a few options. If you have the feat room, you can just take Spell Penetration and Greater Spell Penetration. Alternatively, you could grab Piercing Spell. It's only a +1 adjustment, so you can counteract it with Magical Lineage. A 5d6 shocking grasp that connects is better than a 10d6 one that fizzles.
And...*sigh*...if you want to be really cheesy, you could get Magical Lineage and Wayang Spellhunter and do piercing, intensified, shocking grasps.
Alternatively, you can go kensai and build yourself so that you are more of a fighter with spells at higher levels, gradually shifting to more buffing/utility spells as you level.
I'm not sure what kind of one-shotting you're talking about here; do you mean you eat 10+ points of damage and get KO'ed for the duration of the fight, or do you mean you eat 20+ points of damage and actually die?
If the former is your problem, consider the following...
Replace one of your traits with Adopted (Wereboar-kin), and take the Boar Resilience trait. Then swap out Toughness with Diehard. If the point is simply to avoid unconsciousness, Diehard will do the job better than Toughness, at least at the lower levels. On the flipside, some people point out that PCs more likely to be killed off if they're up and fighting at negative hit points than on the ground and unconscious - your millage (as well as your DM's benevolence in such matters) may vary. Toughness is also arguably better than Diehard as a long-term investment.
As an aside, I'd say you can still claim to be half-drow. (There's no PFS rule saying you can't even claim that storywise, is there?) You just won't get darkvision or any of the other mechanical goodies aside from the unusual hair and skin coloration.

Yeah, being -half drow- is more a story decision and your valid excuse to -not- have the typical half-drow traits is simply genetics; as a half-elf, you happened to inherit more of your human side's traits then your drow side's. Genetics is random like that, and thus it is safe to assume that while -most- half-drow have the standard half-drow traits some outliers don't.
I think you're pretty good to go then - your half-elf immunity to sleep should cover any "sleeping problems" your character might have, and Toughness should keep him standing longer. If bleeding out is a concern, the Never Stop Shooting trait will make it so you automatically stabilize (even if you can't take actions), but you should probably be good with just Toughness alone (or the situation is such that even having that trait wouldn't have saved you). (I'd suggest the Brand cantrip, but that's not going to be useful to you until you hit 2nd level...)
