During [[Winter Event]]s, '''Presents''' appear throughout [[Paragon City]], the [[Rogue Isles]], and Praetoria; courtesy of [[Gamester]].  


Upon opening a present, a hero or villain would find that if they were "nice," they would enjoy a nice reward. If they were "naughty," however, they would find themselves surrounded by the [[Winter Horde]], ready to make their holidays downright dangerous!
'''Presents''' are interactable objects ([[Glowie]]s) that spawn in city and pvp zones (excluding [[Night Ward]] and [[Recluse's Victory]]) throughout the annual [[Winter Event]]. When interacted with, the character will either be judged 'Nice' and be rewarded with Candy Cane's, Inspirations, and Temporary Powers; or 'Naughty' and ambushed by [[Winter Horde]], or even the [[Winter Lord]] when opened by a large enough team.

Changed in the [[Winter Event 2009|2009 event]], when enough {{red|(need number)}}{{missing}} presents have been opened in any zone, a [[Winter Lord]] (Giant Monster) will spawn (previously, Winter Lord spawns were random occurrences on large teams). When the Winter Lord is defeated, he leaves behind a huge present (marked on the map) and a timer starts counting down. Anyone who clicks on the huge present before the timer reaches zero will be teleported to [[Lord Winter]]'s realm when the timer reaches 0:00. Here, they face off against Lord Winter and his Winter Guardians and will earn [[Candy Cane]]s, [[Reward Merit]]s, and the [[Lord of Winter Badge|Lord/Lady of Winter]] badge for defeating Lord Winter.
