So, I'm about to level my character to 9th and I'm currently at a loss for what my next feats, or my feat last level for that matter, are going to be... any other suggestion would be nice but I'm mostly stumped on my feats. Planning on Quicken Blessing at 11 and Pin Down at 12th if that helps at all. I'm primarily a damage dealer in combat, but I'm not really sold on Weapon Specialization...

Why not worship Calistria and get whip proficiency for free? You can also pick up Wasp Familiar which is amazing. A flying familiar that gives you +4 initiative.

Mostly because I've yet to wrap my head around a way to RP that... God of Lust and Vengeance isn't really my "thing", but I'm open to different interpretations of her faith to help me out.

Well, passion, rather than lust, is an angle you can approach. Putting all of your self into the things you desire. Patience is another angle, as while Calistria is a vengeful deity, she's willing to wait along time to get to it. Being patient when facing evil or wrong doers is something you can play with. If you're AOO focused, you could argue that you're patiently waiting for an enemy to make the first move before retaliating,
Another point of note is that Calistira encourages survival- Vengeance is a worthy effort, but not if it ends your life. Wasps are creatures which survive after they sting, rather than die after the first blow.
Half-elves seem drawn towards being thrill-seekers, capable of looking through the eyes of other cultures and having little reluctance towards new things. This would be something Calistria would approve of I'd imagine. Additionally, she's a goddess of trickery, which could embody spying, harmless pranks, or leading enemies into traps type of combat style (Which, the whip lends itself to.) You can definitely play a Warpriest of calistria without being angry and lustful all the time.
@Mekura I'll definitely have to keep all that in mind!
A Cleric of Sarenrae employing the whip? Kinky...
I'll show myself out.
Swift action move so you can then full attack even if not in range/reposition after a FA. Sure, you can't end your movement in a space where you threaten... but guess what! Whips don't threaten!
You may need to perusade your DM to let performance combat be a thing tho. May involve hiring people to follow and cheer you on. Or possibly for kout the feat tax.
I've already got far too many things triggering on Swift actions to want a feat for an other one, but I'll keep this in mind for future characters.
What about Serpent Lash and Greater Serpent Lash?
