“Birthday Present
Happy <Nth> birthday!— In-game description
“<First/Second/etc.> Birthday Surprise Box
Uses remaining: 1
Contains a random <miniature/everlasting tonic> from the <First/Second/etc.> Birthday series. (Double-click to open.)
— In-game description
A Birthday Present is a type of present that is awarded to each character every 12 months (from 12 to 84 months), counting from the day of creation. It appears in inventory the first time that character enters the game after reaching the milestone. A Birthday Present acquired from a Xunlai Gift-Giver is called a Birthday Surprise Box. The main difference between Presents and Surprise Boxes is Surprise Boxes cannot be traded or sold, they will not go into a trade window.
Acquisition[edit]
- Birthday Present: automatically every 12 months from 12 to 84 months.
- Birthday Surprise Box: from a Xunlai Gift-Giver in exchange for a Birthday Present Voucher.
Contents[edit]
When opened, the character will get a miniature or tonic randomly chosen from the table below, depending on the age of the present.

Seventh birthday[edit]
The seventh year present has a chance to drop Purple, Gold or Green miniatures from any of the first five years of presents (first row) and several previously exclusive minis from other sources (second row).
Notes[edit]
- If the character's inventory is full then the Birthday Present will appear the next time the character zones into a new outpost or district with at least one empty slot.
- Excluding their acquisition methods and descriptions, the only difference is that Birthday Surprise Boxes cannot be traded.
- To find out how often each item appears from a Birthday Present, visit the research subpage.
Anomaly.Unlike other Birthday Presents, seventh year Birthday Presents are stackable. This is also true for Seventh Birthday Surprise Boxes. Anomaly.If you try to open a 7th Birthday Present while in a competitive outpost, you will get the error message: "This item cannot be used in competitive missions".
Bug.A stack of two or more Birthday Presents or Surprise Boxes appears singular in its description, e.g. 2 Seventh Birthday Surprise Box. Bug.Surprise Boxes do not have the usual "This item can not be traded or sold" text in their description even though they can not be traded.Trivia[edit]
- Except for the color, these five prizes use the same inventory icon: Factions Collector's Edition Prize, Nightfall Collector's Edition Prize, Winter Gift, and Festival Prize.
- Originally, John Stumme stated only that "there are some [seventh year] minis that are not repeats from the presents of previous years - they're just rare."[1] Stephane Lo Presti later confirmed the exact contents of the seventh year Birthday Presents.[2]

Notes[edit]
- The game treats miniatures as allies:
- They are affected by skill effects (e.g. Earthquake or "You're All Alone!"), and they boost skills that increase in power through the number of allies within range (e.g. Leader's Comfort).
- However, they cannot draw aggro nor do they impact Leadership.
- Miniatures have been observed to have drops assigned to them; however, the owner of the mini is still able to pick up the drop. (Sources: Image & discussion.)
- There are currently 119 different miniatures in the game (40 white, 19 purple, 38 gold, and 22 green), including the 3 unique Frogs.
Bug.On rare occasions, you will be able to see a miniature's level or party size next to its name. The mini can also be selectable, like a player; its name will appear as "Collectors [sic] Edition <Miniature name> Doll", "Birthday <Miniature name> Doll", or (for newer pets) "Miniature <Miniature name>".See also[edit]
Trivia[edit]
- Before the October 12th 2007 update, Miniatures would die if hit by a snow ball or boulder.
- Many high-end miniatures are no longer in circulation, as they belonged to accounts that have been permanently banned.
- Hours before the First Year miniatures were due to be released, all newly created characters spawned with a miniature. The game was rolled back an hour later, after many exploited this glitch.
- New birthday miniatures were introduced near the first five anniversaries since the game's release: April 27th, 2007; April 25th, 2008; April 26th, 2009; and April 23rd, 2010.
