I am trying to create a custom wall that ranges in thickness like the attached jpeg shows. I would like to create a wall that is the 'green' area. Any suggestions? Thanks!

You might try using the massing tools to create a mass of the shape you want, and then do the "wall by face" tool under massing.

Just like in real life you have to figure out how that wall will actually be built and that will give you the answers on how to create the wall correctly in Revit.  What is your wall construction?  Metal studs? Wood frame? Concrete? Jello?  It depends on how that wall is constructed.  You would probably build it using acouple different walls with studs and sheathing on one side.  That's the good thing about Revit, it forces you to know and figure out how things are actually built in real life, you can't just draw lines...
