Honestly I think your theme is fine power wise, anyone saying that thats too low a level to get a dominate power at, I'd like to point out that druids get charm beast as an encounter at level 7, warlocks also get an encounter dominate at level 7. There are also 2 level 5 daily dominate powes.
I'm not sure why your level 6 utility is an encounter, it might as well be a daily since the only spell it can be used with is also a daily. In fact personally I think you should make it a daily power free action that isn't a stance and make it trigger off hitting with ST, this way it can also be utilised with the level 10 utility.
As to the level 10 utility, I'm not sure why anyone would ever realistically take it, yes an at-will mba that knocks unconscious is pretty good, but to do so you're forcing yourself to not be able to do anything else for basically the whole encounter as you'll use all your standards and move actions doing this and then be unable to target anyone else (although the power doesn't say what happens when there are no valid tarets which you should probably clarify). In the process you'll burn a lot of surges, grant CA nonstop, and never deal damage for the whole encounter. Personally I find it amusing the power is called "blood frenzy" when you can't actually hurt any enemies for the whole encounter after activating the power.

yeah, NO, theme powers are not supposed to be on par with class encounter attack powers, so that isnt a good comparison

Just a Dream is nonfunctional as written - it's an immediate interrupt, to a power you use as a standard on your own turn - you can't use immediate actions on your own turn. It would have to be a no-action to work.
In general, this feels like it would be better as a Paragon Path rather than a theme, both from a mechanical power level perspective, and from a flavour perspective, it being one of the most powerful magics of the setting and all.

I wouldn't say it is on par though, he has to walk up into melee and knock himself unconscious at an enemies feet.
