Planetary domains of the Golarion deities

Are the Golarion gods the gods of planets other than Golarion? For example, are all of the dead lined up for judgment in front of Pharasma's Boneyard from Golarion, or are they from a host of planets? If so, which planets, solar systems, galaxies, universes? Also, can anyone point to a source that states they're the gods of planets other than Golarion and what they are?

Pharasma has been stated to run the whole "judging the dead" operation. Other cultures have their own representatives, but they ultimately report to Pharasma. I want to say that was in the crazy Ask James Jacobs thread, but I could be wrong.

The ascended gods (Cayden, Norgorber, Iomedae, etc.) aren't well known off Golarion. Interestingly, though, prophecy broke universally (or at least throughout Golarion's solar system) when Aroden died.

Desna, Pharasma, and Asmodeus all get worshipped on other worlds for sure. I'd expect a few core deities to show up in most polytheistic places. The various demon lords, empyreals, and so forth would also extend to the stars.

There's a sidebar on this exact question in the Gazeteer of the "Frozen Stars" and I'm fairly sure it gets touched on in Distant Worlds too, if you're looking for more solid answers.

Cheers!
