I'm working on two Magus that are similar, but different and one of them will be my 3rd Pathfinder Society project in addition to my ongoing Swashbuckler and Sorcerer projects (who I am enjoying quite a bit as it were.)
The characters in question are as follows:
https://pathbuilder2e.com/launch.html?build=390207
https://pathbuilder2e.com/launch.html?build=390208
I've got some play room here. I can do standard Elf stats for +2 str, +2 dex, +2 Int, -2 Con and put my start boosts into something like Str, Con, Int, Wis, or I can do floating +2's and do Str/Int and then final boosts into Str/Dex/Con/Int or I could potentially go finesse weapons and go Dex. Or one could go Strength and one could go Dex.
Both, or at the very least the Drow (Aramil Soveliss, in this case an Ancient Elf who regrettably doesn't have Darkvision, but the constraints of Pathfinder Society and the feats needed/wanted...) is heavily inspired by Seltyiel the Iconic Magus who uses something like a Longsword or Scimitar.
I think overall I picked the theme/spells/etc on both of them to help convey their personality (Aramil Soveliss dominates foes with overwhelming sword play and fire power, using blasting as a means to incinerate or chill foes to death) where the other Ravinsild (the Dhampir) uses necromancy/negative and cold damage, the chill of the grave to sap enemies strength and steal their life essence and in many ways fight like a death knight/vampire using death magic and cold magic to hamper enemies whilst bolstering himself.
So both want a higher Int for Saving Throw purposes etc. Now it's just a question of the martial side of the offense... also HP is a bit of a concern. I just don't know.
How would you do it?
