i). Who is God?
ii). What is he like?
iii). What are the things that he likes or dislikes?
iv). How is he like, in appearance?
v). How can you tell when he is not happy? Does he frown?
vi). How do you know that he is sad?
vii). Where does he live? Where can I get him, if I'm interested in knowing him?

My idea of a God is a being that is omnipotent, omniscient and benevolent that can do anything, of course one does not exist in this Universe

In my opinion...
If there is a god that fits all the criteria (Omniscient, Omnipresent, and Omnipotent) then that god must be the only god... because he/she/it is present everywhere. He/she/it would also know that he/she/it is the only god since he/she/it has all knowledge.
The Hebrew/Muslim/Christian god fails this test because of several verses in the bible where this supposed god mentions "other gods"... so either the Christian god isn't omniscient or isn't omnipresent (or both). Furthermore, if he/she/it fails this test then omnipotence is also out of the question.

Theists define God on a continuum of anthropomorphism and vague metaphor. On the anthropomorphic extreme they say "God is a man who loves you and wants a relationship with you". On the vague metaphor extreme they say "God is simply timeless energy floating around."
