Pathfinder's Bestiary 2 features a lot of monsters that seemed like they'd make awesome opponents but went mostly unused in the official content. A great example here is the qlippoth, Paizo's reimagining of the Obyrith demons from 2e.
I haven't forgotten them though, and have used the qlippoth numerous times in my Andoran campaign as a sort of ultimate evil, worse than demons, Outer Gods, or Zon-Kuthon. Too bad Paizo didn't do the same.
We're finishing the Andoran campaign soon and I thought I'd finish it off with an encounter with a qlippoth lord who's on the verge of becoming a demon lord. However, while re-reading the Qlippoth entry I came across this paragraph, which implies that there is much about Golarion's cosmology we don't quite know:
Some believe that the qlippoth come from an unknowable realm on what might be described as the “outside shell” of the Outer Sphere, but if the qlippoth are to be taken as indicative of what order of existence rules in such a realm, it is a good thing indeed that this outer realm is so impossibly distant.
Dear Aroden, if you're still alive, help me.
