There is no way he was a Magistrate at 39 and looked that way for his elven years. The dates on the gravestone (born 1229 DR) aren't correct.

He looks a very nice 39. smile

But a high elf at 39 should look very young, like 17-18 years old, given the lifespan of elves. Here for 350 (roughly 30-something for a human) it fits. In terms of D&D rules for the elven race, of course, this is wrong.
