Ok, starting with the standard variant, the noble has Bluff, Concentration, Craft (any one), Knowledge (any 3), Listen, Spellcraft, Spot. We need two more. As it's a ruler, Diplomacy and Sense Motive? Maybe swap the Craft out for Intimidate or yet another Knowledge?
 

I like Diplomacy, Intimidate, Sense Motive and drop Craft. They have underlings to make stuff for 'em. ;)

Updated.

Feats: 8 (1 can be epic)

Greater has Alertness, Combat Casting, Iron Will, Rapid Metabolism, Spell Penetration

Noble has Alertness, Combat Casting, Iron Will, Improved Initiative, Jack of all Trades, Quicken Spell-Like Ability (telekinesis)
 

First, psionic version skills. Same skills, except swapping Psicraft for Spellcraft and stealing some ranks for Autohypnosis (perhaps from some of the Cha skills, or just swapping out Intimidate)?

I like the noble feats, though Jack of All Trades is less flavorfully appropriate for the ruler. That would leave 3, including 1 epic. For standard version: Ability Focus (enslave), something metamagic, Spell Stowaway (X)? Could also swap out for more metamagic or item creation, I guess.
 

Intimidate is probably pretty useful for a ruler, but I could see pilfering a few points here and there for Autohyp.

Your feat selections sound appropriate. Maximize or Extend for the metamagic?
 




Time stop sounds good.

Updated.

CR 21? It doesn't have the damage output or anywhere near the defensive capabilities of a solar.

Advancement: 22-39 HD (Gargantuan)? We wouldn't want it to outclass the 40 HD grand aboleth.
