1. I understand that I can put custom dictionaries on my Kobo. Is it possible for me to create those dictionaries from scratch. Some of the fandoms I read use canon words that are seen throughout the fandom but nowhere else. It would be nice if I could create my own dictionary with those words.
If you can get the words and meanings into an appropriate format, then you can generate the dictionary. There is a dictionary thread in the developers section that should have the information you need.

2. I found the details view of the books, which I love as it has the summary of the story in the synopsis. Is it possible to manipulate the details and related view. I would like to add some of my calibre columns to the details and add books that are part of a series to the related view.
A beta version of my Kobo Utilities plugin can do that. The instructions are in this post and the preceding few posts. But use the beta in this post. Don't worry that it is a beta. It works fine, I've just been busy with other things and haven't released it properly.

3. I got the Kobo Aura H2O thinking I would be able to put calibre companion on it. After looking in the forum, this does not seem to be the case. Is it possible to put a reader program on the device that would organize the books by nested tags (tags with a heirarchy)?
Koreader uses the directory structure. If you can map your nested tags to directories, it should work.
