I think I need a second opinion for this build. The idea is scary toon that feeds on fear. I borrowed liberally from the Midnight AT, obviously, but I'm looking to optimize it while trying some new powers (Madness Aura). Any help is greatly appreciated.

You may want to get SBlast w/ adv to put up Devoid easily. I'm unsure what your planned rotation is here, but Dimensional Collapse can be nice to refresh Devoid (from SBlast) and Fear in the background if spamming ERuin (though ERuin is pretty expensive). If you take a rotation like alternating between SBlast w/ Devoid and ERuin (w/ Avenger's Preemptive), then you don't necc need DC since the blast could apply/refresh Fear and Devoid anyways (that rotation would be less optimal dps than ERuin spam, though). So, it will depend a bit on how you plan on playing it, and how energy management is shaping up.
It may also be harder to roll/stack Expose Weakness w/ charged attacks like ERuin. I also wouldn't normally take something like Madness Aura, but its fine to keep just for the fun of it (and to try new things), as long as you have all the other powers you need.
