I'm going to make an assumption that there has been a Japanese style area somewhere in the past...

Basically, there was an ancient Japanese flavored kingdom ruled by an emperor descended from a sun god. This empire finally fell to orcs but not before the emperor took the field personally and sacrificed his life to lay waste to the orc horde. However, the remaining orcs stole his daughter and fled. Thus ended the worship of the sun deity who favored ancestor reverance- Basically Shizuru from Dragon Empires or Amaterasu from Shinto/Japan.

Now, a thousand or more years later, someone wondered onto the old battlefield and stirred it up. Not just anyone, but a young half-orc who carried the blood of the emperor, descendant of the kidnapped princess. Both the orc and human spirits swelled up in response to his presence and the remaining spark of divine power from the emperor's remains swelled up to meet the divine spark within his blood.

He was changed.

Note that there is a sidebar regarding aasimar with origins from races that are not human:
Not all aasimar are descended from humans. Aasimars can be born of any intelligent race, though human aasimars are the most common. Aasimars of other races usually exemplify the ideals of beauty and skill as seen by their base race. For example, halfling aasimars are small, beautifully proportioned, and display exceptional grace. Half-orc aasimars are slightly larger and stronger than ordinary orcs, with tough skin and metallic claws and tusks—they are likely to be neutral rather than evil, but still display aggression and incredible combat prowess.
Pasted from d20pfsrd but I believe the sidebar is in Pathfinder Players Companion: Blood of Angels...

In essence, he is as follows:

Race
Aasimar (angel-blooded)
1. looks like a half-orc with metallic tusks and claws (this change is fluff, still mechanically an aasimar)
2. aasimar racial variant: Scion of humanity- makes him also considered human (in addition to a native outsider) and can qualify for feats as a human. The character loses celestial as a starting spoken language. This variant changes the type and languages of the race- it is in the advanced race guide.
3. first level feat- racial heritage (half-orc), a feat he qualifies to take after taking the Scion of Humanity
Note: 1., 2., and 3. are actual means within the rules to make a half-orc aasimar that is eligible to take feats with the racial requirement: orc, half-orc, and human. Of course he is double susceptible to rangers and such with three subtypes: humanoid (human), humanoid (orc), outsider (native). But, I like the flavor
He will drop the spell-like ability and pick up from the chart either an additional +2 to strength (fitting with the half-orc aasimar description) or make weapon holy 1x/day, or fire resistance 5.

gestalt class
Samurai (ronin)/oracle (possessed archetype- ancestor mystery)
The source of his oracle powers is the merged spirits of the deceased warriors he stirred up and the samurai abilities is from the awakened divine genetics of the emperor carried in his blood.
oracle curse- tongues but instead of speaking celestial or one of the listed languages in combat he speaks the ancient language of the fallen kingdom. If not acceptable change, he will only speak celestial in combat.

You are a wielder of magic, but it is a different kind
than that of others. Your power stems from a long line
of psychics, people born with the power to bend the
world around them according to their will. In you, this
manifested early and you are learning how to control it.

Class Skill: Perception.

Bonus Spells: charm person (3rd), see invisibility (5th),
tongues (7th), arcane eye (9th), feeblemind (11th), mass
suggestion (13th), plane shift (15th), mind blank (17th),
dominate monster (19th).

Bonus Feats: Blind-Fight, Combat Casting, Combat
Expertise, Iron Will, Quicken Spell, Silent Spell, Skill
Focus [Spellcraft], Spell Penetration, Still Spell,
Unlock Talent

Bloodline Arcana: Whenever you cast a [Force] or
[Mind-affecting] spell, increase the DC of that spell by +1.

Bloodline Powers: Psychic sorcerers gain increasing
mastery over their powers as they advance.

Might of the Mind (Su): You can use the power of the
mind to either attack an enemy or pick up an object. As a
standard action, you can hurl a single unattended object
of up to 250 lbs. at an enemy within 30 feet. This attack
is treated as a ranged attack with a thrown weapon
(dealing an amount of bludgeoning damage equal to 1d6
plus half your sorcerer level), except that you add your
Charisma modifier on the attack roll instead of your
Dexterity modifier.

Alternatively, you can pick up an unattended object
of up to 250 lbs. within 30 feet and transport it to your
hand as a move action. You can use this ability a number
of times per day equal to 3 + your Charisma modifier.

Deflecting Mind (Ex): At 3rd level, you gain a +2 bonus
to your saves against enchantment spells and effects, and
a +1 deflection bonus to AC while using magic armor or shield spell.
At 7th level and every four levels thereafter, these
bonuses increases by +1.

Flight (Su): At 9th level, you can telekinetically
lift yourself, moving at a fly speed of 40 with perfect
maneuverability for 1 minute per class level. This
duration does not need to be consecutive, but it must be
used in 1 minute increments.

Psychic Resistance (Su): At 15th level, you gain spell
resistance equal to your sorcerer level + 10.

Mind Over Matter (Ex): At 20th level, you ascend the
weakness that is the flesh and become in truth a psionic
individual. You gain DR10/magic, telepathy 120 ft, and
are always treated as if under the effect of a Mind Blank
spell.

I really agree with you on your idea of feats. Often i create human fighters just so i can have feats to play around with and build my guys.

Else-wise, Rockjaw would likely attempt to ally with the earth elementals, and probably form a covenant with them or something.
He wishes to prove his worth as a paladin, first to himself, then to his clan back home (his clan is a line of legendary Stonelords, where Rockjaw inherited little of it, he is just a normal dwarf. Therefore he covers himself in stone, however, so far everything he has tried so far just corrupts him more then redeem him.) and regain his place among his ancestors.
And get drunk while doing it.

A driving force behind him is his desire to integrate with the stone, to become more like his ancestors. Therefore he wears stone, therefore he allies with the elementals, therefore he fails and looses his temper.

"I was heading yon my journey, ever onwards when I heard tha sounds o a commotion in tha distance. Speeding up an heading towards tha sounds o tha fracas an wha do I find? Why I come across a gaggle o deep gnomes an they be in dire straits, fer sure. they all be mages o some sort, really don know what kind and really don care but there be a group o them, 7 left standin by my recollection an a good 8 dead round them. How they managed it I ner could figure out but they managed to walk right inta a rout o flail snails an they were surrounded by dem. Tha worst o it was tha them blinkin gnomes were as idiotic as them snails is dense. They be flinging magic round like twas candy onna wee lads nameday! I dunno ifn you know but them snails be something special. Ya see, them shells ona them backs ken warp magic an reflect it like a fine gem reflects tha light. Tha spells o them gnomes was flying every which way! Bouncin an reverberating amongst them an striking friend an foe. Worst was some of it went up." He says glancing at the ceiling high above their heads and gestures in a downward spiralling pattern.

"Ya see, there be a whole lot more o them onna the top, just hangin there like gravity don exist! Among them was a few smaller ones, thar young I imagine, an one o them got struck, knocked clean off and crashing to the floor! Well them snails didnt seem to like that much an turned as one on the stupid gnomes who were still flinging away wit tha spells! Next thing ta happen was tha snails started ta sink down from tha celling onna these great threads o mucus jus like a spider! I never seen tha like! Well I charged headlong inta them first snails I could reach, trying to get ta the gnomes what was still standin an yelled Stop wit tha bloody magic BY TUNDAR!!" His outburst caused more than a few dwarves that were leaning in too close to jump back. Placing his hands on the table and starting to push, slowly inching it along the ground accompanied by scraping.

"You ever try an push a snail tha size o a boulder an weighing a good 800 pounds? Course ya hadnt, ya softies! Well I tell ya, twas the hardest thing I ever had ta push, but push I did, all the way ta the middle where the gnomes be terrified, tha little sissies. Stupid sissies is what they are! Well another interesting thing about them snails. They got these giant flails onna the end of them eyestalks instead o eyes an boy can they swing them! Tha entire way I be pushing them I hear this rhythmic poundin like tha best o tha dwarven war drums onna my back. Thump thump thump thump thump, an away they go, thump thump thump. Almos destroyed my armor onna my back ta say nothing bout my spine!
Well when I reach tha middle I tell them gnomes ta follow me an ta get out o there an I keep pushin an pushin an pushin an pushin. No idea how far I gon an tha snail poundin away at ma back an ima at my limits yet I keep pushin. Then I realize that them gnomes be callin for me ta stop, we had gon right outa there an could escape! Not a single snail perished yet only 3 o tha gnomes made it tha day an I be as sore as I ever been in ma life yet we lived! It be a proper display o how ta do it to tha gnomes and a good chance for them ta spread tha word, ifn they even lived ta tell tha tale, them stupid sissy gnomes..."
By now he had drawn a large crowd and no small amount of respect from those listening in.

Son/Daughter of the Occult: Your conception was touched by occult power. You gain a +5 trait bonus on Knowledge checks made to fulfill Knowledge Tasks.

STANDARD RACIAL TRAITS

1. Ability Score Racial Traits: Elves are nimble, both in body and mind, but their form is frail. They gain +2 Dexterity, +2 Intelligence, and –2 Constitution.
2. Size: Elves are Medium creatures and thus receive no bonuses or penalties due to their size.
3. Type: Elves are Humanoids with the elf subtype.
4. Base Speed: Elves have a base speed of 30 feet.
5. Languages: Elves begin play speaking Common and Elven. Elves with high Intelligence scores can choose from the following: Celestial, Draconic, Gnoll, Gnome, Goblin, Orc, and Sylvan. See the Linguistics skill page for more information about these languages.

DEFENSE RACIAL TRAITS

Lightbringer: Many elves revere the sun, moon, and stars, but some are literally infused with the radiant power of the heavens. Elves with this racial trait are immune to light-based blindness and dazzle effects, and are treated as one level higher when determining the effects of any light-based spell or effect they cast (including spell-like and supernatural abilities). Elves with Intelligence scores of 10 or higher may use light at will as a spell-like ability. This racial trait replaces the elven immunities and elven magic racial traits.

FEAT AND SKILL, OFFENSE RACIAL TRAITS

Fleet-Footed: While all elves are naturally lithe and agile, some also are naturally speedy and have a strong desire to rush into situations rather than worrying about looking ahead. Elves with this racial trait receive Run as a bonus feat and a +2 racial bonus on initiative checks. This racial trait replaces keen senses and weapon familiarity.

SENSES RACIAL TRAITS

Darkvision: Though uncommon, some groups of elves are born with darkvision, rather than low-light vision. In many cases this is taken as a sign of a drow in the elf's ancestry, and can lead to persecution within the elf's home community. Elves with this racial trait gain darkvision with a range of 60 feet. Due to Lightbringer racial trait, light sensitivity does not apply to <enter name>.

Kensai Magus/Monk Weapon Adept
18, 15(+2), 13(-2), 12(+2), 18, 10

After Elven traits - STR:18, DEX:17, CON:11, INT:14, WIS:18, CHA:10

From Kensai

Canny Defense (Ex)

At 1st level, when a kensai is wielding his chosen weapon, he gains the canny defense ability. This is identical to the duelist prestige class ability of the same name, save that his chosen weapon may be of any type.

Weapon Focus (Ex)

At 1st level, a kensai gains Weapon Focus with his chosen weapon as a bonus feat.

Perfect Strike (Ex)

At 4th level, when a kensai hits with his chosen weapon, he can spend 1 point from his arcane pool in order to maximize his weapon damage. Don’t roll for damage—the weapon deals maximum damage. This affects only the weapon’s base damage dice, not additional damage from sneak attack, magical weapon properties, spellstrike, or critical hits. If the kensai confirms a critical hit, he can instead spend 2 points from his arcane pool to increase his weapon’s critical multiplier by 1.

This ability replaces spell recall.

From Monk Weapon Adept

Way of the Weapon Master (Ex)

At 2nd level, a weapon adept gains Weapon Focus as a bonus feat with one of his monk weapons. At 6th level, the monk gains Weapon Specialization with the same weapon as a bonus feat, even if he does not meet the prerequisites.

This ability replaces evasion.

I do not want my chosen weapon getting messed up by two weapon focuses. May I suggest Greater Weapon focus even though pre-reqs are not made and I can not take about weapon focus for that same weapon.
