I guess that would depend largely on the year you are in now. |

Well I would love to know how old he is in the most recent book. And if I could get exact age, that would be great. I know this is a kinda strange question but I would really love to know. |

Check out the chronology in my signature for the time details that are actually in the books, which help us to answer this sort of question best: - Drizzt appears to have actually been born in early 1298 DR, perhaps some time in late winter (Homeland).
- The most recent Drizzt book, The Pirate King, appears to take place in autumn, 1376 DR, through spring, 1377 DR.
This would seem to make Drizzt 79 years old by the end of that novel (1377 DR - 1298 DR = 79 years).
Add a year to that for WOTC's official answer: 80 years old. |

Of course, it is somewhat annoying to know that since he made the jump to the 4E Realms, he'll survive all the upcoming Drizzt-novels up to that date. Meet Mr. Invincible. |

Kind of has to be Invincible when he is also Mr.Marketable. |
