Warning: There is a slight jump scare early on in this video for two reasons. First, getting shocked and then calmed down is a relaxation technique, and second, everyone knows that the best bit in the Lord of the Rings films is when Bilbo goes savage and gets mardy at Frodo ‘GIMME THAT ****ING RING YOU ****’. Ahem… anyway.
I remember reading letters between C S Lewis and Tolkien when they were chatting about the Lord of the Rings books and Lewis said something like ‘not another f***ing elf…’. Well, sorry Clive, but this specific elf got like almost zero screen time in Jackson’s cinematic version of LotR! So, I figured I’d give Glorfindel at least one ASMR ‘elf’ roleplay outing. Also, for whatever reason, I have created zero Tolkien ASMR content, which I feel I need to rectify.
In this fantasy ASMR roleplay the Elven knight (and seemingly re-re-re-rolled power character) Glorfindel of the House of the Golden Flower saves you from some random Nazgûl who popped down from Mirkwood after you escaped the siege of Osgiliath. It’s the first part of what will be a three parter, featuring the old bore Boromir and the painfully-absent-from-the-movies Tom Bombadil.
I made the armour out of some yoga mats and junk (you can find out more on patreon), and I also wrote the music. I’ll release the full ‘suite’ after the final video, so if you really like it you’ll be able to grab it soon!
Oh, and wherever possible, and with the help of a friend whose knowledge of Middle-Earth history and logistics is far superior to mine, I have tried to keep the narrative plausible within the timeline and geography of the Lord of the Rings books - this story being set slightly before the events of the films. That said, there’s a… well, a lot of room for error, so please be forgiving and kind of any mistakes I may have made!
Otherwise, there are plenty of up-close personal attention ASMR triggers, as well as a soft-spoken Welsh accent (because Elves are Welsh, all right?) that will hopefully help you to both relax and get your Tolkien fix. Enjoy!

🎙 What is ASMR? 🎧
ASMR (autonomous sensory meridian response) is synaesthesia of the soul. It’s a relaxing feeling, it’s a tingling down the spine, or it’s simply a sleep aid. Whether it’s being ‘held’ by someone you have confidence in, or ‘looked after’ by someone with authority, or just feeling ‘safe’ with someone you trust, it uses audio-visual triggers to enable you to let go of your worries and stresses - even just for a bit.
📽 What is FPC? 🎞
FPC (first person cinema) takes all the relaxing elements of ASMR but has much more of a focus on immersion and the suspension of disbelief. It’s kinda like being the main character in your own short movie, with popular figures you know and love, or entirely created worlds - just for you. There won’t be any visible mics or traditional triggers in these videos, and they will seem more unintentional than the usual ASMR videos - but they are unique and relaxing experiences designed to transport you to different places, worlds, and times.
Disclaimer: This video is intended for relaxation. Any views, opinions, or advice expressed is purely for the purpose of entertainment, and to induce tingles through ASMR. These videos are not a substitute for traditional medicine, therapy, or any other professional medium, and should not be treated as such! Take all the advice with a pinch of salt, and certainly don’t take it to heart. That being said, please enjoy them, benefit from them, and hopefully get those warm, tingly feelings. Oh, and it’s not for kids.
Thank god he Glorfound us
That's truly so Glorfinder of him🥺
😂😂😂😂 ow I laughed to hard
Glorfindel: *Solemnly talking about the horrors of war I had to face*
Me: *smiling like a fool* I’m a friend of the elves-
Oh my goodness I love this so much. My linguistics major self is shrieking (very calmly) in joy, because the Welsh accent! Sindarin elvish was based on Welsh, and I've always had this thought/headcanon that the elves who primarily spoke Sindarin (like Glorfindel) probably had at least a light sort of Welsh-esque accent when they spoke the Common Tongue, so this is just a nerdy dream come true.
This is an excellent headcanon
This is very interesting theory! But if we consider Glorfindel as the reincarnation of Glorfindel from Gondolin, he was of the Noldor
@@zu3176 Absolutely! But he's been hanging around elves that speak Sindarin pretty much constantly after returning to Middle-earth, basically, so I bet he would have picked up the Common Tongue (which formed long after Sindarin) with many of the lilts and accents that the native Sindarin speakers around him had :)
I'm surprised he got there fast enough to save us seeing as Arwen stole his horse to go visit her boyfriend 🤣
Glorfindel is so unappreciated and i am so mad that they cut him out of the movies, but i loved this. I hope there will be more videos like this :)
He was the best elf ever. He killed 7 balrogs and was sent back to life by the Valar cause he kicked so much orc ass
They should make a movie based only on him.
@@rockinbells8351 yes!!! Glory to Great Glorfindel the Glorious. Or even a season of a TV show would do
He didnt kill 7 balrogs
You mean the love of my life?
Glorfindel: You are the bravest soul, my friend.
YOU LITERALLY FOUGHT A BALROG, I think that title was born to be yours bud.
Glorfindel, dragging a half soulless Man™ barely concious into rivendell: oh hi elrond, do you perhaps want another child?
This is cannon, Tolkien told me in a dream lol 😂😂😂
Holy mother of God!!! Glorfindel has always been my favorite and him not being in the movies made me really sad growing up. I love your portrayal of him. The accent highlighting just how old he is and the slowness of intonation and tone fit so well!
Glorfindel is in the movie but is only standing behind Elrond in one scene.
@@JatinSingh-dj1lk That barely counts and you know it, being reduced to 'elf in the background' just isn't right.
FINALLY an LOTR rp!!!!! The only thing that would make this better for me is if I actually understood the Elfish you used it this. Looking forward to parts 2 & 3 already!
As its Glorfindel, slayer of Balrogs, returner to middle earth after dying, 1st age badass elf. He is the best elf and if you dare say Galadriel I will rip off your right foot and shove it where the sun don't shine!!! Anyway I love Glorfindel
@@ruairiodonohoe2533 Galadriel is better. Lol.
Not even close
@@ruairiodonohoe2533 Fingolfin is better
The only thing better than a LotR rp would be a Silmarillion rp :)
It's so wonderful to see Glorfindel represented in some way somewhere. (Not to mention Tom Bombadil) This was amazing, I hope that you sometime decide to have a continuation of this.
I was so sad when they didn’t have Tom Bombadil in the movie all they have is Old Man Willow’s song that’s sung by Fangorn
On the one hand, my inner fangirl is obsessing over the details, and spot on visual aspects (the gold flower is perfect beyond words!!!). On the other hand, my LORT obsessed ass who used to write poetry in elvish and studied the language and histories for years, has a lot of questions
LMAO 😂
I just have to ask did you become an Elvish expert?
You'd love Tolkien Untangled channel. Start with Elronds Sad Story, epic, truly epic. Touches the heart deeply.
OMG! That was perfect! I adore this version of Glorfindel. The hint of the Fall of Gondolin, the attitude of an actual warrior and even the golden flower. Absolutely perrfect. Thank you so much for making LOTR asmr. It was awsome!
Omg, the depth of the worldbuilding ("fallen Mairon, student of the Smith"?!), the Sindarin, the production value (the opening and the fight scene were on point, the yoga mat armor looks good), how Glorfindel feels old with his slow accented Westron... this is excellent. Only thing I'd do differently would be to make him glow. Funny of Glorfindel to talk about the Nazgûl being dead, being reborn himself.
(I'm thinking about, his Sindarin has a different accent than the Sindarin in the movies, but that can make sense, he learned Sindarin in the First Age, and recently returned to Middle-Earth, he's bound to have some kind of archaic Gondolindrin accent. (A good fanfic I read did this by translating it as Elizabethan English lol.))
Did parts 2 & 3 get cancelled? A Iarwain Ben-adar roleplay sounded fascinating :(
I think the Nazgul might have mistaken me for one of their own from the screeching I did when I saw this had uploaded, but I've been so excited for this video since you first announced it on Patreon and it is just as wonderful as I expected it to be. Your Elvish is very soothing and relaxing to listen to even if (or especially because) I don't understand a word of it. I am eagerly looking forward to our next two characters we'll get to meet and where this little story goes.
I actually taught myself how to write in Elvish during 2020 and I speak a bit of Sindarin as well. I don’t know if he was speaking Quenya or in the High Elven language but I only caught maybe one or two words
Now I can be rescued by a beautiful elf whenever I want! 🥰
I always missed Glorfindel in the movies so it's super cool to finally get to meet him! I am so happy~
He is in one scene in movie though standing behind Elrond.
elen síla lúmenn’ omentielvo, laurefindelë!
what a wonderfully relaxing asmr, can't wait to see more Tolkien from you!!
I remember a certain someone saying that they were hesitant to portray anything related to the LoTR. I'm glad that the certain someone changed their minds. 🤗🤗🤗
From the detail of the house of the Golden flower to the numerous layered sounds, this must have been a mammoth task to edit and render. Please know, however, that we are ever grateful. Your hard work and hours (and hours and hours) spent on your art really does shine through as bright as the light of the Eru Illúvatar. 🥰🥰🥰
Heddwch a chariad, am byth. 🌹🌹🌹🌿🌿🌿
Ahh! I'm so pumped to see LOTR content from you! And while I fully support the movies replacing Glorfindel with Arwen to give her a little more screentime, I really liked him in the books, so I appreciate you giving him a little love and screentime here. Also, as always, just a very relaxing and engaging video!
How is it possible that every time I think of a weird/different ASMR that I’d like to listen to and fall asleep to….I IMMEDIATELY FIND A VIDEO OF YOURS OF EXACTLY THE THING I HAD IN MIND………………….you really deserve more recognition ✨
“while my heart beats, it shall always hear yours” *matt flashbacks*
Yes, please take me to Boromir, my favorite ill-fated Gondorian boi.
In all seriousness, your narration in the beginning is so compelling. Can't wait for part two!
I really liked that one! I wish he would make a video where he just sat and read The Silmarillion. That would be wonderful!
Squeeeee! I loved him in the book, and was so disappointed he wasn't in the film. This was great! And thank you also for turning on the CCs! ❤
I just rewatched Lord of the Rings and here you are, uploading this masterpiece! It can't be a simple coincidence :) Thank you, Jim, for this authentic atmosphere.
This was fantastic man, can’t believe you didn’t make a part 2.
Каждый раз, когда я включаю асмр Джима, я знаю, что не буду спать, потому что невозможно не смотреть эти потрясающие сюжеты!
The audio and visual for this is astounding! I love the ambient noises in the background as well. Great job!
Plz continue this. I absolutely love it. And I can't lie when I say I think I'm falling for Glorfindel ♥️😅
GLORFINDEL! MY BOY. Finally, some love for my boy!
The perfect way to round the final week of a LOTR 20th anniversary watch party. I've been so impatient waiting for this video once it was teased
Mae govannen Glorrrrrrrrfindel hehe that's all your getting it's the only Sindarin I know and my Quenya is non existent. I'm so glad we got to hear elvish it was lovely and I love the golden flower detail in the armour. Three parter?! Oh you really are spoiling us, I'm very interested to see how you perform Tom Bombadil.
Many thanks as always Jim
Self admittedly not a Lord of the Rings fan but generally love everything Jimmy does.
same!!!
Loved being rescued by Glorfindel! Amazing fighting effects! Thank you Jim
I’m losing my mind over this .. cannot believe it.. the quality, the lore, the storytelling, glorfindel my beloved 😩
this is so well made it’s crazy
This lotr is everything and is on my nightly playlist. Id love to see you as an ent, a ferryman, Tom bombadil or a nuzgul just before turning. Perhaps wormtounge trying to wheedle something
Beautiful voice, beautiful accent, beautiful elf))) Great job, sir, and the whole trilogy is gonna be awesome, I'm sure^^
I know I’m not alone in saying this, but I keep holding out hope for a part 2 because this was brilliant.
Ive been sick and watching lotr to get me through. This is exactly what I need
What a great guy hope he doesn't die in a life or death duel with some weird fire lion monster thing
My favourite lotr character is here damn this is gonna be good
Radagast soft whispering to his animal friends while using a mortar and pestle for mushrooms to mix with his Old Toby next please
XD
Had to leave a comment for this one. So comforting and relaxing. I love LOTR so this RP is perfect for me. Can't wait to see other vids in the series. Your rescuing/ healing/personal attention vids are my favourite 😊
SQEEEEEE!!! Three parter!!!!!! (sorry over excited!) This. Was. *Awesome* I won't give away spoilers but I am very excited (note the squee in the beginning 🙃) The jump scare, even though I was expecting it caused me to scream and sent my cats running. Of course the mention of Tom Bombadil caused another small shout of "YES" from me. I loved him in the game and I *know* you will do him justice (you are just that talented). The armor is great and I know how hard it is to work with that type of material because my daughter does cosplay and makes her own stuff. Now between this and Die Society 2 I am in overload. Thank you!
So cinematic and professional!
The intro alone makes this so amazing, cannot wait for more! Such amazing work!
Ah- thank you❗️I grew up reading LOTR
and love it always- Tom Bombadil has been badly neglected, it’s true, and is a great character for you to enact, looking forward to it🤗
7:37 thirst trap OP
😂😭
Please update soon! I love this!
I keep coming back to this video, I really love it 😍
PS. Why there's no more LOTR videos? 🥺
Recent subscriber here. Love your medical roleplays. Could you consider doing one where we are seriously injured and you're a comforting and patient doctor? Dealing with serious burnout from stress and that kind of ASMR is the most helpful to me.
This was well done, the Elvish and the voice are very soothing. Looking forward to the other two parts of this, Boromir and Bombadil.
Fabulous! The cinematic quality is awesome here.
Looking forward to part 2! Great job! 🙂👍
Thank you so much beautiful and kind elf for saving my life again ❤❤❤❤ you are magnificent Jim everything in this video is gorgeous starting of course from your music and also the armor.
Can't wait to see more 🤗
LOTR ASMR?! Never clicked on a video so fast in my life. And it’s so well done! The sound design….I’m blown away. 🧝🏻♂️👏🏻🤩
If you are trying to go to sleep to this beware of 3:38 lol nearly killed me lying in bed.
This 2 times reincarnated Elven Prince of old isn't afraid of anything. Makes sense due to all that he's been through since the 1st and second ages. By the end of it he had been one and only promoted to a state similar to a Maiar spirit, his Fëa upgrading in a sense. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
I love your description. 1st good music. 2 ur right he is a total re rolled character lol. My Quenya did fail me. Listening to ur Elvish made me realize how rusty I am. I used to know this dang it lol. But thank you for this amazing interpretation of Tolkein. I can't wait for the other oarts.( Tom Bombadil is my fav char in the books) lastly your hair is magnificent as it should be for this character.😊🌼
This is beautiful! That skull popping up did give me a jump scare. You, Sir, are magical!
I was looking for a relaxing ASMR, and somehow this came up. CZcams really be like “Yes, let me just lull you off to sleep with the death-screams of orcs.” 😂
Its perfect! We need more Lotr asmr, great work.
Yes. More asmr using Tolkien. Yes.
Can you please do a Silco ASMR from Arcane???
Perfect elf ✨✨✨
The best birthday gift is Lotr Asmr from Jim ♥️
"ASMR"
*loud sword noises and screeching*
The most beautiful hair on CZcams
13:50
Jim :* talking *
Me : wait ! This was a horse ? 🐎
Great! Would love to see you try Agent Smith from the Matrix, bet you could do a real bang up job! Cheers.
Lol a book accurate rescue for Frodo
I liked that he was so gentle with us ... like an actual friend... I'll wait for the second part of THIS rp
i am suprised there are so few LOTR ASMRs out there. there is just SOOOO MUCH materiel to use! seems a shame that there are is no Annatar ASMR for example.
This of course is Fantastic and i LOVE the Welsh Accent. As for What you said about Tranduil i am Scheduled for Chranial nerve Exam so do not worry for me LOL.
I'm sitting here working from home on a grey misty and dark day, listening to this perfect soundtrack for my surroundings. Each tiny sound makes my ears thrill
What the heck, I just got my nerdy partner to agree to watch Fellowship for the first time tonight, and then I login to see this :D (He's been loving it btw lmao)
I love your enunciation in the narration, and I'm sure I'll love the rest ^^
I could honestly listen to Jim every single day, all day, for the rest of my happy little life!
This pretty much fits the character of Glorfindel to a T. The inflections, the cadence, the accent. It's pitch perfect.
PLEASE do a Thranduil asmr, your videos are always top-tier and I know you’d do him such justice 🧎♀️🙏
I just picked up LOTR after finishing The Silmarillion and I'm absolutely cracked out and insufferable over anything to do with Arda right now; finding this video is a GODSEND. And I know it dropped five months ago but the description promises a continuation... 👀💕
You would make an absolutely incredible Littlefinger.
I thought it was a joke when a friend told me there is a Glorfindel ASMR. As a Tolkien fan I had to look for it. After the disappointment of the series, I was cautiously optimistic when I found the channel. By Durin's beard! What a great video. 🎉 Lovely detail with the golden flower on the amor🎉. I came for the Glorfindel fun. Now I'm staying because it's calming to listen to your voice. Asmr and fpc in combination has an incredibly good effect on me when itcomes to relaxation and switching off from day to day life.I didn't expect that. Acting you really have talent.The use of your voice, bodylanguage and the choice of words in the different roles are also multi-faceted and on the point. I haven't found anything that even comes close to your work.
Any chance that you will portray Lord Elrond in the distant future? 😊
What perfect timing, I was just watching LOTR lore videos!
feels like you could do a rly good sauron asmr...maybe during his annatar phase...
Amatúlië! Elen síla lúmenn' omentielvo. this is going to be great!
woo Jim's true Elven form has finally arrived!! can't wait for the rest ^_^
ok purr glorfindel just got his hair done 😝😝
The quality of this beautiful piece is amazing! Excellent!
The Welsh language is so very beautiful and magical... Love part one and anticipate the next chapter with my Elven ears atwitter.
Tolkien has been inspired by Welsh to create the elvish language
@@BlackStoneCrows Really? I'm very new to LotR (as in, watched all the films this year. Not had the chance to find the books yet). But I'm really fascinated by the thought of someone using my language to create Elvish!
@@myrddin1 Tolkien studied languages. I hope you'll appreciate tlotr even more now, you speak a fantasy language!
@@BlackStoneCrows Wooow I have so much to learn!! Welsh sounds fantastical anyway or at least I think so anyway :) thank you for that little nugget of info!
@@myrddin1 You're welcome, you'll find a lot on the topic on internet
That was lovely. Thank you! Does this mean you might do a Tom Bombadil video?! That would be just the best. He's one of my favorite characters.
Please, you have to make a Sauron´s RP when he was disguised as an elf
LOTR rp omg yes and you elvish is absolutely amazing great work on this video cant wait to see more
I honestly can't believe how amazing this video is! Thank you for another amazing video.
Being Rescued Role Plays are my absolute favourite 😍
I loved the reference to Tom Bombadil, I was sad that he was cut out of the movie as well as Glorfindel
I hope some day we will visit mr tumnus' house as well))
I didn't plan a watching a sensual ASMR until Jim started talking in Elvish
Ok but this is actually a masterpiece
I’ve seen all the movies only once and that was a year ago. This was awesome though! Also we need an eomer or Rohorrim asmr!!
Try Tolkien Untangled channel for the deepest lore that will touch your heart. Start with Elronds Sad Story, Epic, pure Epicness.
My fav character in the books. Great job!
Sorry my elvish is a bit rusty, but my orcs on point 👍
That thing scared the heck outta me asdgasdgasdlgasd
I love hearing that Welsh accent 😍
i know nothing about lotr but i have an emotional attachment to this channel
