D&D concept

So, I've been thinking about doing a D&D session with custom rules and lore on one of the discord servers, and I was wondering who would be interested
I will work on the lore and stuff if people want to play
A short summary of the story:
Since the dawn of time, the realm of men, (and maybe other stuff) has been plagued by wars and catastrophes, and a group of immortal heroes from another plane of existence must descend down to the mortal realms and beat up anyone who threatens their values.
Unbeknownst to them, over time, each of these heroes have accumulated a strange cult following based on their past actions, and when a mysterious figure known only as "The Empress" starts conquering the kingdoms, the heroes spring to action.
But will their unexpected worshipers help them along the way, or just be morons obsessed with sacrificing babies and alike... probably a bit of both.!

So this isn't DnD it's your own custom rpg. Also this should be in lesser games.
