Good Lore sources for Pharasma

[TiwazBlackhand]

So aside from Gods & Magic, what are some good books for lore related to Pharasma and Pharasmin religion?

First or second edition books are fine, but let me know which edition so i know where to look.

Thanks!

I found the Concordance of Rivals (PF1) as well as the Three Fears of Pharasma blog post really enlightening.
Also Planar Adventures (PF1) and some lore in the First World setting book (PF1).

Any specific bit you would be interested in?

Not really, I'm just getting ready for some PFS play at an upcoming con, and my character has the Raise by Faith (Pharasma) background so I thought I'd bone up a bit to be more in character.

So I guess I don't really need the pre-history stuff so much as I need things a normal (non-cleric) worshiper would know.

There is an article on Pharasma in Trial of the Beast (Carrion Crown AP), I think that is where you can find the most worshipper-facing info.

My basic take is that Pharasma is the goddess/caretaker of the cycle of souls, aka the cycle of life and death, which sustains the existence of the Multiverse. She expects people to pay respect to birth and death (and to the dead). She will judge everyone in time and decide where your soul goes after your death. She hates undeath because it corrodes the cycle by taking a soul (or even part of it) out of the cycle, thereby weakening it and endangering, however slightly, the continued existence of the multiverse.

I don't have it on-hand, but Inner Sea Gods (PF1) had a lot of details worshipper-facing details about the core deities so it would probably be helpful.

There's the afterlife article in Mummy's Mask 6 that details the travel of souls after death, which while not directly about Pharasma, it concerns her primary interest. Mummy's Mask 1 details the city of Wati which has a large Pharasman temple in it as well.

Carrion Crown in general has lots of Pharasman NPCs, churches, and whatnot. Book 1, 2, and 5 I think have the most useful appearances.

Pathfinder Tales about Salim, the atheist oracle of Pharasma also don't have Pharasma show up directly but her church and servitors are the protagonists. Pathfinder Tales: Bloodbound also deals with the Pharasman priesthood.

The last PF1 era comic where Valeros died and got his body stolen has him navigating the boneyard, which isn't really adjacent on the priestly side of things though. Tyrant's Grasp 1 is also good for this as the primary antagonist of that book is a servitor of Pharasma.
