I don't have all of the cards quite fleshed out yet, but I got this idea when looking through cards at home and I thought it might be fun to do. It's a little bit silly, but it sounds like fun to me.
I'm looking for some strategic one-drops for my deck. Someone suggested Holy Day to me as a 1 mana instant, but I'm looking for a good one-drop creature that's NOT Mogg Fanatic. (I don't want to have to swap Mogg Fanatics between this deck and my Budget Torrent or buy 4 more Mogg Fanatics) I was thinking the enchantment Cowed by Wisdom might be useful against All-In Red decks or mid-game play if you keep your hand size up (for example, they whip out a Dominus of Fealty first turn, then they can't attack with it since they don't have enough mana could make All-In Red shake in its boots). Ghost-Lit Redeemer would also be good for life gain as a one-drop.
I also looked at Hand of Honor or Kataki, War's Wage as a 2 drop for defensive purposes. Bushido 1 may help me out a little bit in defensive matches.
I also am considering splashing blue for Counterspell or Mana Leak. I miss my counterspells in my aggro decks immensely, and Dominus of Fealty does have hybrid blue and red mana symbols.
I'm going off an idea, and I need a plan of action for what I'm going to buy next. I've mainly looked throught the Kamigawa block for cards for this deck, but I also need more cards to yank creatures. Any suggestions?

I don't know if this will give you any ideas but this is a deck that I love to play in our local casual format. It actually does pretty well, especially on a 1-on-1 basis. As you can see, it basically uses your permanents against you. In the case of decks not using a ton of permanents, the Puca and Dominus can provide some beats.
Hope this helps you out with your deck idea, even though your route is a bit different with the whole steal/fling idea. You could maybe substitute some of the cards from my deck list for better ones. Misdirection > Swerve, Sower of Temptation > all of the control magic stuff, plus you could put in more accel like Mox Diamond or Chrome Mox and some better card draw (Brainstorm, etc.)
I think that you should stick to r/u. Adding the white does not help the deck much and makes casting the Dominus harder than it needs to be. There are plenty of sac outlets already for red/artifacts.
Blue lets you go nuts and use Barrin, Master Wizard so you can steal their lands and sac them to bounce other stuff.

I am looking for Date Stamped promos from Khans of Tarkir block so I can finish my set. Check my wants if you have any.

While netdecking and testing VileHorror i thought about Biorhythm. Sure its really expensive, off-color and crappy but still you're always the one with creatures while playing VH. That made me think.

I am trying to center a deck around Dominus of Fealty. I was going to go for a "Turn the opponent's creatures against them" approach in Red/White, with cards like Fling, Grab the Reins, Goblin Bombardment and Brion Stoutarm. I also am considering adding in Adamaro, First to Desire as extra beef for the deck.
