Would it be possible to make a rope which is small in scale at one end and thick at another?

Alternatively, can i have a rope drive a chain of rigged joints on a character mesh?

Yes, you can control rope thickness (and color, mass, etc) on a per-control point basis. See:

You can also use a ObiRopeMeshRenderer to drive an arbitrary mesh. Driving a joint chain can also be done, but requires you to use the particles API to copy particle positions to bones:

Is there a way to animate how much friction something has?

You can set friction using collision materials (and of course, animate it over time). See:
