Fun Lord of the Rings costume for bald guy?

My girl is going as "Sexy Gandalf" and I'd like to also do a fun costume that's LotR inspired.

I'm going to be working the bar at the party so it can't be too elaborate and I'll need to be able to move around. I'm bald and have a short red beard. 5"10 medium build.

My number one option is a galadriel dress and hair. Would be hilarious with my beard.

Doing a wig in drag is fun, but I'm not that Into a wig to play a male character, so I'd rather do something creative or clever as another option.

Polanski's Macbeth is a masterpiece

I've seen countless direct film adaptations of Shakespeare plays, and in my opinion this is the best one.

It manages to capture the magic and energy of the play but never once fails to be pure cinema. The edits to the script were very smartly made, and I can't speak highly enough of the fight choreography. Changing many of the monologues to voiceovers is a bit of a goofy choice, but I think it fits the psychedelic '70s vibe really well

Polanski is a bad man, so I don't condone spending money on this, but I do implore you to watch it.

What are your thoughts?

Alternatives to the Conflict system in Mouseguard?

I'm a long-time fan of Mouseguard, and I'm considering running it again, but I've never been in love with the rock-paper-scissors conflict system. I love a universal conflict resolution mechanic though.

Has anyone come up with an alternative that still feels plugged into the Mouseguard setting and ruleset?

Does anyone love the conflict system? If so, help me to appreciate it?

Is playing vs the AI on the app a good way to improve?

I'm wanting to get better at the game, is playing against the AI on the mobile version a good plan or will I learn weird habits from watching their moves?

Best physical versions to read?

I'm about to finally start this series and I'm very excited

I prefer reading physical books, and mass market paperbacks are pretty hard when they're super thick so I'm looking for a larger format.

I've heard that the third book in this series is notoriously out of print in trade, what does everybody recommend in terms of purchasing?

Uta bugged on Iki island, please help

EDIT: I had apparently not completed one of the other quests in the series so that fixed it and I got the trophy. it was just very confusing because she's stuck in an unfinished state until I do the Legends story I suppose. but I did get credit for her quest it looks like.

PS5 directors cut, version up to date 2.024

Like many people have reported (I searched a bunch) Uta is stuck on asking if I can complete the story for her.

I've done the intro to legends, and I've tried to fast travel to the Cemetery archery challenge. Nothing has helped. I even loaded an old save and tried everything all over but still bugged.

Before I try and do all 9 legends raids, is there anything else I can try? I'd really like to be able to get this trophy.
