#Glen McCready

[space-blue]

*heavy breathing* it's happening!

At long last!! We don't have all the stories recorded, and we're still hard at work on this project, but we now have enough back up to start posting! And that means... That we are launching the Zevlor Sleep Stories this Friday!!!

Episode #1 is ready to go!!! This is only the title card art, by the lovely @cinnasalmon ! It'll introduce every video in the series. Then past the title card, a surprise first artist aaaaanndd... My own short story!

It was the first recorded by Glen all the way back when, so I'm very hype and eager for everyone to enjoy it. Glen's reading is so great, it actually makes checking him for misspeaks/missing sentences super hard. We struggle not to fall asleep working on this project.

We will upload videos every Friday as long as we have them lined up. And very soon we'll have Omeluum too, with a delightful voice filter made by Devi.

If you're hype and want to sign up ahead of time to get the notification, here's a link to the (currently empty) channel!

Even if you don't care much for Zevlor or Omeluum, lots of the stories are fantastic DnD tales written by talent fic authors, and meant to soothe you as you fall asleep. If you're a big fan of BG3 or DnD, come and check it out!

P.S: reminder that there'll be no ads and no revenue of any kind. It's a project by fans for fans, and even Mr. McCready is a fan in this context. So don't be shy with liking and subscribing as we go on, you'll only be increasing exposure for the project <3

Glen is a King

[vera-king-hrfl]

Good gods, he did that so well! It is exactly how I hear it in my head. Such a sweetheart 💕 I'm melting 🫠 we're so lucky to have this man.

[imsonormalaboutzevlor]

So Glen McCready is doing some sort of sleepy thyme reading or guided meditation in the voice of Zevlor and/or Omeluum, which is EXACTLY what news I wanted to wake up to today. Wonder what he'll decide to read.

Either way, as someone who falls asleep to audiobooks and such, I think this is an absolute win.

Every single time Glen McCready tweets I need to take a second, like it's too adorable too much dad energy I'm blushing at nothing I need to hide my face in shame

My fellow Zevlor lovers, (⁠ ⁠˘⁠ ⁠³⁠˘⁠) ❤️

Gooood morning and ⚠️Spoiler Alert: for Balder's Gate 3 and Descent into Avernus⚠️

I have spent a healthy amount of time trying to discern our old man's age. After listening to 'Oathsworn' by Vee and narrated by Glen McCready (beautifully written and read, major kudos, if you haven't listened go...go now: (⁠☞⁠ ⁠ಠ⁠_⁠ಠ⁠)⁠☞ Source 1 ). I now have a pretty good idea of some numbers, though this is more of a head canon than fact. But the story authors and Mr.Mcready are collectively giving us the most story we've gotten about Zevlor's early days. (⁠人⁠*⁠´⁠∀⁠｀⁠)⁠｡⁠*ﾟ⁠+

In the backstory we learn Zevlor was about 10 years old when the Hellriders were formed (not the OG ones she trained and who left her in the hells, rip). Zevlor talks about how the Companion was raised to defeat the Vampire lord who took over the city. He also explains he was 2 years, too young to join at the time. Now, I'm not fully versed with the history of the 'Decent to Avernus' but some lovely folks on reddit brainstormed a general timeline if you'd like to take a look (Source 2).

Okay maths time, so Zariel's deal to 'aid' the city against at the Vampire lord was only meant to last 50 years (when Zevlor was 10). So when Zevlor turned 12 he joined and served about 48 of those years. Which means by the time Elturel descended he was already 60...at least. Depending on how the campaign goes it takes at least a year or two for the city to resurface and for the Teiflings refugees to make it to the grove. That means mans is in his early 60s by the time we meet him....... all that stress and he has aged ✨phenomenally✨

Please, correct me if I made any errors these are just my observations. I always assumed he was early 50s lol, like the fact he has no visible grey hairs is insane. I believe he originally had black hair too so we definitely missed out on some salt and pepper action, but the light brown suits him well. And according to the 5e Wiki (Source 3) the average lifespan of a Teifling is 90–150 years. So he's got at least 30ish years ahead of him ( T-T)💕

Zevlor's Sleep Stories # 1 - A Trip to Waterdeep

Glen's voice is soothing, I have tears in my eyes - that's not me being hyperbolic. Thank you to all the creators @cinnasalmon @ploompkin and Nor, who don't think I know. Ploompkin the art is beautiful ❤️

[space-blue]

The second episode is out!!! This time it's @spicedrobot's story for Omeluum!! Go give it a listen!

[russica]

I was the very very luck recipient of Glen McCready's 100th cameo! And boy did he go ALL OUT!

[plain-sunflower-seed]

Glen McCready did my request! I'm very happy he went above and beyond for this request. I hope this video helps others the way it helped me :)

[imsonormalaboutzevlor]

Okay, I need EVERY SINGLE ONE OF YOU GUYS to be 100% honest w/ me and let me know what you're getting Glen to say to you on Cameo. I gotta know what the normal requests are hdgdjfhekdj

Comfort

I wanna share this with my fellow Zevlor lovers, I'm not sure how many male Zevlovers there are but please. PLEASE understand how much this single 6 minute video has given me.

Glen McCready is an angel for this, and I'm listening to this forever. As someone who is painfully closeted and often afraid of being open in fandom spaces too, this is like. Inexplicable. This means everything to me. My favorite npc by far, comforting a character who represents myself in a lot of ways, and doesn't shy from making it romantic by any means.

So please, know that sharing this mean a lot to me.

And thank you, Glen McCready, for being so fucking wonderful.

Edit:

Forgot to add context: This is for my durge oc Aerdir, a refugee from Elturel turned hero against his will, finding Zevlor in Act Two in the pod. Post battle, he breaks down sobbing before Zevlor, someone he has looked up to and had feeling for since before he was made into a "hero". Zevlor takes the time to calm him down, even casually confesses (which killed me), and lulls him to sleep, to rest, for the time being.

Hey so this absolutely made my 🥰YEAR🥰

I ordered a cameo for my 31st birthday! I know my birthday is a month out, but I had the money and didn't want to risk him closing requests.

Glen McCready is a TREASURE 🙏

If you can afford it, it is 1000% worth the money, he is so warm and genuine 🥹

[zevlovor]
