A way to see how "old" your character is?

I am a returning player (most of you have already figured this out ) but I need to see when their B-Day is.

I have one older character I really do not like playing and want to delete her and create another - I have been told to Never Delete because of the B-Day gifts (she has 4 mini's now - so she is 4 years old).

Thanks!

Just type in "/age" (minus the quotes) and you'll see how old your account is (in months), how many hours you've played, as well as the age and hours played of that character. It won't give you an exact birthday though - there's no way of finding that, as far as I know.

/age
will give you the age of your character and your account in total.

You can just use that character for a storage mule, which will make her useful.

Then don't call her a mule - call her a storage specialist.

You could always buy an extra character slot rather than delete her.

Depending where that character is in game, you can either change or will soon be able to change her 2nd without deleting her. Others here can probably better tell you where in Factions.

In factions once you reach Senji's Corner, you can talk to Senji and change your second profession for 500g.

If you have access to your first screenshots, you might be able to get a rough guess by looking for their first screenshot and looking at the date tag on the image file. I've done this to get the original creation dates of my original "prophecies 4"

The /age command you will have discovered by now not an accurate birthdate determination.
I don't know of a command that is.

3 of my characters show as 59 months so some time in January I will get Bday gifts.
I used to keep a calender but they never appeared on the same date each year.
I am guessing they update characters in blocks and though you may remember creating a character on the 11th of January you are unlikely to get the gift then.

There's about 24 hrs leeway either side of the creation date ('birthday') when it comes to dishing out birthday presents. Also, the game appears to run on a 365 day year for presents, so leap years will make the pressies appear a day earlier each time.
