1:Not aware of anything like that, there are mods that require you to eat, drink, sleep, but I don't recall ever seeing anything with a growing your own food type, building your own house, etc. type thing.
Mods:(isn't really the type of mods I use so, I'll just list off some popular ones)
Scratch the above I found a http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=3852
http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=24649
http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=15773 (covers all three things; sleep, eat, drink)
http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=37088 (also covers all three)
For the eat/sleep/drink mods you'll probably have to choose only one of them.
2:
Again I don't recall seeing- Never mind
mods:

diverse water life (uhhh I think it's part of MMM or some other overhaul)

http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=10223 (I think it allows you to collect water)3:
http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=17784
WAALX
or some other monster mod might have it
There's also races like http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=322174:
There's pretty much mods for just about every lore landmass you can imagine.
Here are TES Nexus links to some landmass mods (like the ones Leonardo2 had linked to on ES Search)-
1. http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=36303
2. http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=22555
3. http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=38792
4. http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=16976 (doesn't use Cyrodiil worldspace, unfortunately)...Also, there's the infamous Morrowind mod that sadly cannot be discussed here.
5. http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=22401 (an island off of the western coast of Cyrodiil)
for non-lore there are a few, off the top of my head: http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=21989 is a good quest/landmass mod.5: Currently I'm using difficulty wise...:

OOO
MMMAnd all of them together are making each facet of combat pretty damn realistic and deadly.
6: Quests! My specialty. Difficult quests:
http://tes.multimediaxis.de/?go=dlfile&fileid=349 (difficult, but not in the usual way. it makes you think, it makes you use your faction rankings, skills, race-- everything at your disposal; it has some pretty hard boss fights, and overall I think it's a great example. It's difficult, complex, and all that, but it never loses sight of the important things like having fun, being interesting, and inciting genuine feelings from the player) ... Often times when people try to make a "difficult" mod it quickly devolves into a generic dungeon crawl.

mods by http://www.tesnexus.com/modules/members/index.php?id=125368 usually have difficult boss fights.

Have you played Oblivion already?
What sort of things interest you?

What did you not like about Oblivion? What did Oblivion not have or need more of?
Male or female character?
