Edit: Complete Remake of character
Name: Basket
Weapons Used: Magic
Magic? (Yes/No/If yes, rules): Yes. You are an ice mage (can use other elements if you have to fight ice monsters) (destruction, enchanting, conjuration)
Description/Story: Basket is an argonian who was born from his mother's egg in the black marsh area of Tamriel. At a young age, he had a basket full of groceries (frogs, food, etc.) dropped on his head after his mother tripped on a rock on the approach to their house. the basket fell and his horn pierced the basket. Basket has to visit a doctor to get his horns surgically removed because the basket was on there, and it was not coming off. Ever since that day he has hated baskets. He has chosen to hoard baskets in his inventory and drop them on people when he pleases, as a form of revenge on the basket overlords.
Special requirements (if any): Basket is a blue-scaled argonian with no horns that has always been fascinated with ice magics (he may use other magic elements if there are ice resistant enemies). He should become the arch-mage of the mages college of Winterhold. He should pick up all baskets and drop them on people when he pleases. however, Basket would NEVER steal a basket or anything else. He is also intrigued with enchanting his armor (cloth). Basket does not like being with humans or elves for extended periods of time, so no human or elf companions.
Drinking games for this character can be whenever he finds a basket, or maybe when he finds a certain number of baskets (there are a lot of baskets).
Mods I recommend for this playthrough are
SkyUI - A UI mod that drastically changes the interfaces and makes them much more functional than the regular clunky Skyrim UI.
Merlin's Magic - Rebalances the magic so it is no longer so OP and adds a huge amount of cool new spells to the game.
Requiem - Makes the game much harder, so the game is for real men, not pansie casuals.
Feel free to comment on this post if you have any other mods that you think would go well with this playthrough.

For mods definately Skyrim Redone, which also requires SKSE (Skyrim Script Extender), and Immersive HUD.
Also, in my opinion, the mod "SkyUI" is an absolute must. Makes the user interface menus SO much better!

Heavily Edited rules to make more playable earlier on.
Name: Name your character something intelligent sounding, like Alfred, Aliana, etc.
Weapons Used: Passive Magics
Magic? (Yes/No/If yes, rules): Cannot use magics that's main cause is to harm to HUMANS or STANDARD ANIMALS such as bears, wolves, large cats, etc,, only buffs, heals, and spells that alter the mental state of an enemy or incapacitate them. In a fight against a yeti/dragon/falmer/dwarvish construct etc. she could use destruction magic but it would only be ice or lightning magic, to slow and stun her enemies, but her main focus would be to buff herself and her companion(s) and keep herself and her companion(s) alive. Can edit rules to NEVER use ANY spells that directly hurt others as their primary function to increase difficulty early on if you like Cohh.
Description/Story: Not any specific race but elf or bretton might work best, their father was a warrior who was slain in battle when he/she was but a child and soon after that their mother killed herself. Since then his/her mission has been to teach the world to solve it's differences through other ways than fighting. While she travels she learned how to use magic to further her cause. When pushed into fighting she relies on others to fight for her and supports them with her magic and aids them by driving the enemy insane with her magic and prevent them from doing any lasting harm to her or her allies. She is a person who is ultimately after the greater good and has fought for it her entire life and now turns her attention towards Skyrim so that she may help to end the civil war there before it begins.
Special requirements (if any): Should have a companion as soon as possible, leveling her speechcraft should be important as well because she has been talking to people her entire life. She can picklocks and choose her own side in the civil war. She would wear simple clothes and once she found a faithful companion she would give them the finest weapons and armor she could buy. Can become a Vampire or a Werewolf and can use that form to hurt people, however even in the state of bloodlust that is created by those forms she would not harm innocents on purpose.

What do you guys thing about him using frostfall as well. To much?
As for play style, maybe some variation of spells only, with no healing spells.
Oh, also I really recommend him using random alternate start.

I'm not good at those things but still want to do it.
Master difficulty probably? Two-handed berserk kind of guy. Armor, only spell/cast armor, just clothes on him. No fast travel maybe but can have a horse. No healing spell and ONLY 4 health potions on him. Animals lover so he doesn't kill any that attacks him.
@Yeah, Frostbite mod would be totally awesome.

Use only Axes (Big ones.. 2 handed) and heavy armors. no magic..
He's afraid of Cats and tall grass and is scared by cities.
And is absurdly attracted by injured knees (by arrows.) and eats only apples and mushrooms...
And he drinks tons of alcohol !
This is sorta fun.. in my opinion. Bye !

heres my suggestion for a Skyrim playthrough
Name:
Tweak ( khajit race preffered)
Weapons Used:
Scythe (requires Wulfharth's Dragonbone Katanas mod from steam workshop and Immersive weapons mod from nexusmod) requires both mods to have scythes at multiple level ranges and not just dragonbone
Magic? (Yes/No/If yes, rules):
Yes magic. Only summoning and restoration magic (shouts are a special power not magic so still ok)
Description/Story:
an orphan since 8 you grew up on the streets and learned to steal to keep yourself alive. given the shady hangouts you spent your time in at night you developed a bad Skooma habbit and now try to get a fix anywhere and any way you can. all of your adventuring and exploring is in the name of funding your druggy ways and appeasing your cleptomania
Special requirements (if any):
Must be a Skooma addict and also a master thief (obviously to supportyour skooma habbit)
*edit* there have also been many great mods suggested in other posts so i would reccommend looking at those mods as well

I'm looking again at the mods I have installed. I don't want to overload him with mods so I'll just name the ones that I really think are fun (at least for me).
Random Alternate Start - Starts you off in a random location in Skyrim. Able to choose a starting loadout depending on playstyle. 463+ random starting locations.
http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/25404/?
Death Alternative: Your money or your life. - I find this fun as dying presents a vast number of different situations (depending on how you died/who killed you) rather than just a game over.
http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/45894/?
Realistic Needs and Diseases - (Similar to hardcore mode in FNV)
http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/26228/?
And depending on his playstyle choice:
Immersive Weapons and Immersive armor - (because so many more weapon and armor options than vanilla.)
http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/27644/?
http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/19733/?
And maybe Weapons and Armor Degradation and Repair. - I've had a fun time with that as well.

Cohh has to have this mod http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/11163/? Frostfall - Hypothermia Camping Survival. It makes the game very hardcore.
