DnD 5e - Looking for interest first (Free)

So I am just seeing if there is interest first before developing the idea further. I currently have nearly every DnD game book that is officially published. Players can be like Blood Hunter or other sub-classes currently out. I am torn between starting at level 3 or level 5. Stats would be 4d6 drop the lowest from each roll and arrange as desired, you would roll 2 separate arrays and choose the better set. Stats below 10, become a 10. Just as with classes and sub-classes the same applies to races with published player stats. While I am using the traditional alignment system I also want each player to consider their characters primary color attunement and a secondary one which defines that alignment further. (example White/Red for Chaotic Good). As for my game idea. The group has just awakened their planeswalker sparks, but currently inconsistent with it. Meaning they are not able to leave where the game is starting. I envision the game moving between Ravnica, Theros, the Plane Shift PDFs, Faerun and Wildemount. There has been a plane of fundamental evil that has long been sealed by both the legions of Baator and the hordes of the Abyss with the high heavens watching over the sealed realm as well to ensure it can never break free. When their sparks awakened and they were thrown free of the moorings that bound them for so long it weakened the seals of this plane. Enough that they were able to batter against the gates and crack their prison that held them since time immemorial. Now this profane and insidious faith is free. Lesser entities of this realm are escaping constantly and as the cracks go larger, and the prison walls crumble larger and more powerful entities can come free. So the PCs will be drug into the middle of this conflict that stems from the Blood War and the war between Good and Evil. Law and Chaos. Something about the characters and the moment their sparks ignited that weakened the seals on the prison. The PCs awaken to find themselves in a tower at the center of a green field with golden grains blowing in the clear blue sky. A perfect temperature with a cool and gentle breeze. They find themselves upon awakening on a bed set into an alcove. They all share a common space. While they are under guard they are not prisoners or in jail. So that is where they would start is at this tower. They've come from many different planes potentially. A few could already know each other or related in some fashion, the choice is yours in that regard.
This seems super cool, might be interested
I will also add I am more than willing to take new players along with experienced ones as well!

Out of curiosity do you prefer any races, sublasses, etc for this one?
Not particularly. Could be a Minotaur of Rakdos that doesn't want to see his guild lose everything they hope to gain from this bleak faith. To a Blood Hunter of the wilds that sees the dangers it could cause to the natural world and civilization. Any number of concepts could work, what I ask for most is to be cooperative with your fellow players.
Cool, still interested, just wanted to see.
Campaign idea sounds great, would love to play depending on dates / times

This sounds like a really interesting idea/concept, do you have any idea what day/time you would host the game, as I have a couple of character ideas that could fit this weird and exciting concept for a campaign. My discord is FurrDazzler#1257 if you want to speak further.
sounds like a cracking idea, any ideas on day/timezone. 
It would probably be easier for me to do something Friday thru Sunday, I am in Eastern Time Zone. By the nature of the premise for the game I am also looking to make it long term.

Starting from Mid-Late January I can play pretty much anytime on Saturday, though from 1pm EST onwards is likely the best for me (if you are looking for getting a group/players now, and are fine with a staggered introduction for myself depending upon when you want to start) as this is a really interesting campaign idea/setting that i'd love to be a part of and write a proper backstory for my character for.
I wondering if I could join
I don't mind doing staggered introductions for players if we need to do it that way. Being that they are planeswalkers it would be easy to introduce characters to the plot.
Now since I am doing a lot of MtG the other plane I have a few ideas. One such idea is modifying Phyrexia that was locked away and such. Other options I have are very Doom-esque. For example gigantic creatures with cathedrals woven into their backs. Living siege towers of bone, gore and sinew animated by evil. The longer the prison stays cracked the ever more powerful of these fiends can escape. They have a fusion of magic and technology. Dread priests spread their bleak faith as thousands sacrifice themselves in twisted rituals to breach the walls of the prison. I don't mean for this to be a spoiler. There will be details of course that are omitted but a game is a collaboration between us. So that's why I put it here for input.
Just wanted to chime in that i am a huge fan of the blood war, everything devil and demon, on and off mtg player, and loving the vibes this intro is giving off. I also live on the east coast and can play any time after 5pm Friday and Saturday and anytime Sunday. Please feel free to hit me up if you start up, I'd love to be a part of it.
New player here, but it sounds interesting!
Well it looks like there is enough interest to go deeper down this rabbit hole!
I am very intrested in this because I am am both looking for a 5E D&D game to play and I love magic the gatherings lore. I am especially interested in the planes that do not have any D&D supplments or are relatively obscure:  Lorwyn and Shadowmoor, Mirrodin/New Phyrexia, Kamigawa and Alara to name a few.
Seems like a solid and well though of base for an adventure. Would love to join if the timing allows it. Am wondering though if you are more keen on making it combat heavy, or roleplay heavy (maybe the hard to reach medium)?
I generally prefer my games to be a mix of both. I try to plan for a social outcome even if I don’t think of one the players might. Or sometimes when I didn’t plan for it to devolve into combat it does. Though I won’t railroad your actions. Also I will never charge as a DM.
Relatively new (but committed) player! Interested to be part of this. 
New players are welcome! Sorry for the delay I will be sending out invites to those who expressed interest so we have a better place to discuss timing.
For some strange reason it won't let me send you all direct messages. So here is the invite link... <a href="https://app.roll20.net/join/9395092/k8A2kg" rel="nofollow">https://app.roll20.net/join/9395092/k8A2kg</a>
This sounds fun. I am very interested :)
Definitetly sounds fun! Interested!
This is a really cool setting, but you already have 9 players. :(
