Players Wanted for Homebrew Campaign up to Lv. 20 (SF Bay Area)

Game:  D&D 5e
Group type:  Face-to-face preferred / Online if there aren't enough local players
Experience:  Any
Location/Timezone:  SF Bay Area, California (PST)
Schedule:  Semi-weekly (every two weeks);  around 6-10pm or 7-11pm;  exact day of the week TBD
Roles sought:  Players (3-5)
Game style:  Long campaign (expected 2-3 years), levels 2-20, 80-90% RAW with extra homebrew mechanics and features thrown in. Lots of travel, downtime, and random encounters, in addition to pre-planned missions.

My previous long-lasting D&D group (5 years) recently disbanded due to a divorce, and we are now looking to form a new group with new players for the foreseeable future. The ultimate goal is to find a consistent group that can stick together for a long time, and that gets along well with each other. We would prefer an in-person group in our local SF Bay Area, but if there aren't enough local players available, we will do a virtual campaign instead. Here's some info about who we are, what we're looking for, and what the game would be like:

WHO WE ARE: Two brothers in their 30s who have been playing D&D 5e together for 5 years, together with our friends and families. Due to a recent divorce in the group, our current group disbanded, and we are hoping to form a new group together. I was our DM for our first 2.5 year campaign, and I have also been DMing 2 other games for the past 3 years, so between us, we have a lot of experience playing and running 5e games together. I will be DMing a new campaign which is planned to be on the longer side (2-3 years). I really like homebrewing things and adapting 5e to suit the campaign.

WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR: 1) Players of all experience levels are welcome, from newbies to experienced players – but please be advised: I like to use a lot of homebrewed features and mechanics in my games (as long as the players agree to them), so if going off-book sounds un-fun or intimidating to you, this might not be the most comfortable table for you. You should be open to adapting the rules and adding new mechanics if the group desires it. 2) Players who can show up consistently, show up on time, and hopefully have at least 3-4 hours of availability on game night (exact day TBD). 3) Ages 17+ are appropriate, as our games often include adult humor. 4) LGBTQ+ friendly, and willingness to have open discussions with the DM and/or group if anything is making the game uncomfortable or un-fun for you.

WHAT THE GAME WILL BE LIKE: The game will be semi-weekly (once every two weeks), on a consistent night. The exact day is still undetermined, and any day except for Thursdays could be a possibility. The game would most likely start some time between 6 - 7:30pm PST, and last for 3-4 hours each night. The campaign will be D&D 5e and 80%-90% based on RAW, but with some extra mechanics, house rules, and homebrew options added. The campaign is expected to go from levels 2/3 up to level 20. You will be part of a mercenary group that takes on missions for gold, and in between missions you will have the opportunity to craft objects and increase your stats and proficiencies. The campaign will include a lot of travel time, downtime, and random encounters in addition to pre-planned dungeons and missions.

*Before the campaign begins, we will be doing several months of one-shots and short quests together to see if the players get along well and would play well together. If you play with us for a few weeks and you (or we) decide not to continue together for a long campaign for whatever reason, then hey, no hard feelings and thank you for the memories.*
