I always think of Darken as 15-19 when he kills Panis, just based on the look of the actor that plays young Darken. So when the series starts he's about 38-42, because I think Richard is around 22, since Cara is described as 26 and I think Richard and Kahlan are a little younger than her.

Zedd I would put at around 60ish when the series starts, though with him and Shota they could be 300 and it wouldn't make a difference either way because they can keep themselves young with magic. If you account for his years of training in the Palace of the Prophets, he could be much older. But then his brother Thaddicus is still alive, so that grounds his age in the normal human range, since Thaddicus doesn't have magic so...tl;dr, He's probably around 60ish when the show starts.

So, rewinding around 22 years to the time of Panis' death, Zedd would be about 40ish, and then rewinding further to Darken's birth about 15-19 years, he'd be between 20-25.

As for Giller, Phil Peleton who plays him (and is shockingly handsome when not dressed as Giller) is in his mid to late 30s, so based on his age, I'd put him at about 8-10 years younger than Darken. I think I might have just developed Giller issues So depending on Darken's age, it might not be realistic for Giller to be there because he'd be too young to be a student.

As for Jeziah, if we base it on the actor's age, Calvin Tuteao was in his 20s when he played Dagon in Xena, so he's around 40 now, which would make him around the same age as Darken give or take a year or two.
