Background: I got caught on a spur of builds I call Opti-dumb, and my DM has allowed me to bring in one of these characters since our game is pretty relaxed (Skulls & Shackles campaign). One of the other players already wants his PC to become a lycanthrope to bathe in the glory of Jezelda's power, so it seemed the perfect storm to bring this ridiculousness in.
I checked the first 10 pages of "strength" and "build" searches but couldn't find much. I've had a few variations of the build (Druid, Barb, and Sorcerer Primary) and this is the highest strength I've managed (85). Figured I might as well check to see if there's anything else I can possibly cram onto this and if it even meshes together correctly.
General Guidelines: Any Paizo source, no 3rd Party
Strong the Orc
Sorcerer 7/Dragon Disciple 4/Bloodrager 1/Alchemist 1/Demoniac 7
VMC Wizard (20)
18 (Best Stat)
2 (True Lycanthropy - untyped) *Acquired through wish
4 (Orc - race)
4 (Demonic Obedience: Jezelda - untyped)
4 (Mutagen - alchemical)*10 Minutes
4 (Rage - morale) *4+Con rounds
4 (DD - untyped)
5 (Level - untyped)
5 (Enhanced Transmutation Wizard - untyped)
5 (Manual - Inherent)
6 (Demoniac - profane) *7 rounds
10 (Form of Dragon III - Size) *16 mins/cast, 4 casts/day
14 (Perfection of Self/Idealize - Enhancement)*20 rnds, swift/rnd
Total Strength: 85
Cost: 7 feats, 137,500 gold, and 1 wish(25000 g)
Feats: VMC Wizard(5), Demonic Obedience, Iron Will
BAB 12, Fort 12, Reflex 7, Will 9
While I've quite contented myself, I figure I could be missing out on better alternatives or even more bonuses I simply don't know about, so advice would be awesome. Main points of interest: Profane bonuses, 1st lvl spontaneous arcane casting other than sorcerer, and bonuses not included in this build.
Thanks!

You might want to look at the Orc Sorcerer Bloodline, maybe through Eldritch Heritage if you have the feats to spare. That grants you some nice inherent strength boosts (maxing at +6)
Forgot I had feats to spare for that! It'll be a nice bump up to 86 since it won't stack with the manual (6 Orc vs 5 manual). Bonus for being thematic to Strong's orc blood!

Only 85?
You might want to look into using Magic Jar on something actually strong and then follow up with some buff spells. 85 is nothing.
I leave Magic Jar up to my Beast Bonded Witch. If I stack all this atop Achaekek with its base 43, my DM would somehow find the magical sword of "Die Mantis God". Though if you know of a creature with a higher strength score, please do share. My witch can always be stronger!
