Before I start, yes, I realize that my Domain isn't "optimal," but the flavor of the character makes this particular sub-domain very good.

Now, the fluff of the character is that he is a priest in Tian-Min, born of a high-ranking noble family and chose to join the priesthood in-lieu of becoming a Samurai, but still received training in the weapon. His celestial blood began to blossom as he realized that he saw a lack of honor in the world (in his mind brought upon by the evil outsiders of the universe) and now seeks to begin a crusade to restore the concept of Honor to the world. How? By killing evil outsiders of course!

So here's the "rough draft" of the character:

Race: Archon-Blooded Aasimar w/ Celestial Crusader (http://www.d20pfsrd.com/races/other-races/featured-races/arg-aasimar)
Class: Mendevian Priest (http://www.d20pfsrd.com/classes/core-classes/cleric/archetypes/paizo---cleric-archetypes/mendevian-priest) w/ Variant Channeling (Battle) (http://www.d20pfsrd.com/classes/core-classes/cleric/archetypes/paizo---cleric-archetypes/variant-channeling) of Shizuru (http://www.pathfinderwiki.com/wiki/Shizuru) 6/Hellknight Signifier (http://www.d20pfsrd.com/classes/prestige-classes/other-paizo/e-h/hellknight-signifer) (Order of the Rack) 10/Mendevian Priest 4

Domain: Honor (http://www.d20pfsrd.com/classes/core-classes/cleric/domains/paizo---domains/glory-domain/honor)

Now, I know I've shot myself in the foot twice (Archetype and Domain), but really, the flavor here is money.

So, now that I have my levels pretty much chosen, how can I "optimize" from here?

Domain: Honor
