Just as a point of interest, has Drizzt actually ever cast any spells?

In any of the novels if he has could you tell me where?

note:- not his darkness, farie fire and levitation.

Hmmm....I seem to recall, back in his early years when he was training at Melee Mathgare(sp?) and spent a bit of training at...Sorcery?(sp?) ...whatever the school for Wizards is in Menzoberranzan(sp?)...regardless, he cast a few minor cantrips there(That would be Homeland). Also, right before his first battle with Errtu(That would be The Crystal Shard), he made a weak attempt at a summoning circle? That's about as far as his magical prowess goes I believe...

Somewhere in all his stories he does use one or two low level ranger spells. Only 1st level, I think...gotta look for where...

On the Ice Floes when he "befriends" a seal and trains it to dive into the water and retrieve things. Not specifically stated as a spell but it certainly is hard to explain without thinking Animal Friendship or something similar.

He didn't really cast any spells in an obvious and clearly visible way but some of his ranger abilities could be considered subtle, nature-related spells.
