I was having an argument with someone on the subject of graveknight armor. Technically, their rules don't say that they have to wear it at all times, so they could in theory treat it just like a phylactery and hide it in a demiplane fortress or something. However, I feel like that really goes against the flavor of what their armor is supposed to be.
Any thoughts?

Some questions about the Dominion of the Black.

1) Do their ships tend to have mounted laser weapons or something similar for space combat, or do they generally just rely on biological warfare?

2) How big is the average Dominion ship? How big are the biggest? Their dropships (like the decaying one in Valley of the Brain Collectors) are smaller than the space-faring ones I believe, correct me if I'm wrong.

3) What sort of numbers would be involved in a Dominion invasion of Golarion like the one proposed as a post-Divinity Drive event? Do they have enough resources to be talking "my ships will blot out the sun" levels here?

4) Are there any Dominion-related monsters you would like to have done differently if Occult Adventures had been published earlier?

I'm really liking what I've seen of Bestiary 5 so far. The art in particular continues to floor me. With that said, here are some mostly unrelated questions.

1) Would you say aether elementals are less common than the other "main" elementals in their respective planes, or about the same? As far as I can recall they haven't been mentioned as common denizens of the ethereal plane before, whereas by all accounts fire elementals are everywhere in the plane of fire.

2) Are there procedures that exist for a mortal turning themselves into a devil, similar to the demon transformation rituals from book of the damned 2? Or is the devilbound creature template and other contract-granted stuff the local equivalent of that? What about for the celestial races, can someone become a half-celestial with enough devotion? And I imagine daemons wouldn't be very interested in granting that sort of thing.

3) What does negative energy damage look like (in the context of inflict spells, that new void kineticist, etc.)? Does it leave visible wounds or is it more of just a "draining the life force" thing?

4) Why is the Vilderavn so cool?

1) Who came up with the lilitu demon in Campaign Setting: The Worldwound? I think they're really neat.

2) What do lilitu brands look like? The symbol of the demon lord they serve or something?

3) Are their horns supposed to come out of where their eyes would be, or be more like "regular" horns and leave the eye area totally blank? The art for the one in The Worldwound differs from Minagho in WotR. Or is this an example of their appearances differing depending on who they serve.

P.S. I'll give someone cash money to make more half-demon templates including a half-lilitu.
P.P.S. We need more Abraxas.

1) If you could have the ability to cast any two spells from Pathfinder in real life, and assuming that having to keep your abilities secret so you're not dissected by government scientists seeking to use you as a power source/template for super soldiers isn't an issue, what spells would you choose?

2) Same question as above, but this time having to keep your abilities secret so that you're not dissected by government scientists IS an issue.

1) Miracle and also miracle.

2) Same.

Cheeky. How about sub-level 9 spells?
