A) Soft-capped, Dark Armor is extremely tough, and the -dam effect in Kinetic Melee should be helpful as well. You'll want to make sure you get -KB IOs and a Theft of Essence proc to easily address the biggest shortcomings of the set.
B) Generally speaking you want to take whichever works better with your secondary. Since you have stuns in the secondary, those will stack with the stun from OG. Alternatively, you may be able to use Cloak of Fear as a mule for IO Sets, so just see what you can work out with the build. Some people feel that stuns scatter enemies, but I've never found that 'drunken walk' scatter to be significant.
C) Soul Transfer is very good. It is an incredibly powerful stun and it gets you right back into the fight. As Dechs likes to say, with Soul Transfer they have to kill you twice to beat you.
D) I rather like Soul Mastery for Darkest Night.

I have a Dark/KM at lvl 50 fully Incarnated. I took OG over Fear, the reason being the fear sucks endurance and is of nominal effect in higher lvls. Nominal for me that is. Add that OG needs no extra slots, in a slot hungry build. I built for some defense and recharge. Took Darkest Night for Epic/patron, it is just too nice to stack that much -dmg and to hit on top of some great defense and all the -dmg from each of your attacks.
Took Cardiac for the End Redux and Resists bump. Reactive for the extra -res/Dot. Barrier to push defense into the stratusphere.
She is a great toon to play and very surivivable. I have no purples/pvp ios in her either.
When you play one, you have a tohit bonus. You could find yourself content that reduces your basic tohit of 75% down to -75% within taking an alpha. That's a huge drop in accuracy. This could happen at level 30. You haven't fully slotted, Foc Acc is too many levels away. Do you think the Power Siphon alone is going to counteract that? It's not exactly build up is it? So anyway, your death shroud is missing yet costing you end, cloak of fear is missing costing you end, Oppressive Gloom is missing but the end cost is hardly worth caring about, your attacks are missing costing you end but the real pain it the butt is watching Dark Regen miss, costing you end before you die.
Now that doesn't have to happen but watch the tohit debuffs.
He will honor his words; he will definitely carry out his actions. What he promises he will fulfill. He does not care about his bodily self, putting his life and death aside to come forward for another's troubled besiegement. He does not boast about his ability, or shamelessly extol his own virtues. - Sima Qian.
