I've posted about this before, and at the time it was said that illusion wasn't a CW domain, but they also said fire-based DPS paths wouldnt be likely either, so here's my suggested Paragon Path for illusionist cw's:
At-Will: Mirror Image - Short standing cast, summons an illusion that uses macig missile to attack. Deals 10% of your normal damage, has 10% of your health, and generates extra threat towards itself. Limited to 1/2/3 images.
Encounter: Illusion Veil - Creates an illusory wall at the cast location, enemies passing through are dazed for 0.5/1/1.5 seconds and take minor damage over time. The wall is 6/8/10 ft. long, and lasts for 10 seconds.
Daily: Illusion of Horror - Stun enemies in a wide area around you for 2/2.5/3 seconds, after stun ends enemies move 15/30/45% slower and deal 10/20/30% less damage for 10 seconds.
Feature 1: Illusory Reaction - When hit, have a 25% chance to summon a Mirror Image. Can only trigger every 30/25/20 seconds.
Feature 2: Mind Break - When you crit, has a 1/2/3% chance to stun for 1s. Can only affect a target every 20s.
Feature 3: Shadow Regeneration - When one of your Mirror images is destroyed, you gain 2/4/6% of your max hit points.
Feat 1 (Oppressor Tree): Terrorize - Targets affected by Illusion of Horror deal and additional 1/2/3/4/5% less damage per rank, and it lasts 10/20/30/40/50% longer.
Feat 2 (Thaumaturge Tree): Reverse Psychology - Allies that pass through the Illusion Veil regenerate 1/2/3/4/5% of their maximum hit points, and deal 3/6/9/12/15% more damage for 10 seconds. Can only affect a target every 15 seconds.
Feat 3 (Renegade Tree): Sharper Images - Mirror Images are 20/40/60/80/100% more powerful, and when they crit you gain 2/4/6/8/10% crit severity for 5 seconds. Can only trigger every 20 seconds.
Any suggestions/comments are welcome.

I agree with Ian. An Illusionist Wizard should not be a Paragon Path, it's too awesome to be a Paragon Path!
But Illusionists are something I really would love to see.
Every time you use your Daily:
"You've found me...OR HAVE YOU?!?"
Contagion - Cleric
Testament - Wizard
Pestilence - Ranger
Dominion - Paladin
NIGHTSWATCH
EDIT: So just got the Renegade illusionist companion from the arc promotion... way to tease us more Cryptic? Now it's not only a NPC it's actually a companion with tangeable skills... i want this as a playable class so bad.
For every player who managed to finish Dread Ring, would be given the opportunity to choose a school. Based on this school, the player would evolve a new range of epic powers. Being the basic powers of control, and the school epic .
Could also take advantage of this to allow the CW could use more spells (holding shift, as it was in Neverwinter Nights), or allow certain spells had mastery without putting in the TAB.
The other classes could also have epic options involve Sharandar and Dread Ring.
I really like the Illusion Veil idea. Controlling the battleground creates game, especially in PvP.
Other ideas:
Change Self - make your character appear like a different class
Phantom Steed (encounter) - replace your summon horse, and it can move at 50%/60%/70% speed
Invisibility (encounter) - a slightly worse quality rogue's stealth.
Spook (encounter) - A temporary repel like effect, playing on the target's worse fear
Shadow Door (encounter) - long range teleport in a straight line
Illusionary growth (at will) - makes the target bigger, but also slows them. Why? Helps your team co-ordinate and target the same enemy! Channel like Ray of Frost up to 30% size and 30% slow.
For the new path I would see more a Shadow mage that use Shadowfell energy than an Illusionist. Both aren't incompatible in fact.
