So I have been thumbing through my copy of Out of the Abyss and I was initially concerned that Drizzt would be in the spotlight too much, but now after browsing the highlights and stuff, I don't see one mention of him outside of the Forward by Perkins? Did I miss something here? Did WotC decide against injecting him into the story?

He only shows up on one of the random encounter tables. Very small percentage chance of that happening. That's it. No need for him to show up at all.

No need to hope, I can confirm he's not in there.

If I may ask, is there any new FR lore in the book?

I think there was a bunch of speculation because it was stated he made an appearance and then there was a bunch of vague talk about how a certain renegade drow was causing problems.

That certain renegade drow is in actuality a drow male wizard named Gromph Baenre and not a dual wielding scimitar mad man.

I haven't read enough of it yet to say yes, but from what I see there may be new story elements or events advanced but nothing radically new.
