To do what you describe, at bare minimum you need WeiDU and Near Infinity. WeiDU will handle all the dialogue, scripting, and installation tasks, while Near Infinity will handle the character/item bits. DLTCEP may prove a useful assistant to Near Infinity, some people find it more intuitive to use.

3) Can you create illegal multi-classes (eg. Human Cleric/Thief)?
|
Not if you want both classes to progress. You can sometimes hack abilities with Shadowkeeper or Near Infinity and have them retained, but sometimes illegally hacked abilities go away on level-up. Experiment. And ask yourself why you need your character to be illegal by the gameworld's rules, while you're at it.

5) What sites are good for hosting the file for download?

Worry about that when you actually have something.
