# Who is the owner of a gifted token? Can Coveted Falcon steal gifts?

(Asked by: username_0 on 2024-11-16)

If I play a Bloomburrow card that gifts my opponent a permanent, such as [Blooming Blast](https://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Card/Details.aspx?name=Blooming%20Blast), who is the owner of that permanent? [Coveted Falcon](https://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Card/Details.aspx?multiverseid=646610) can steal back permanents a player owns but doesn't control, so I'm curious if it can steal back gifts.

**Your opponent will be the owner of that token.**

When you gift your opponent a token, they create that token. That means they will be the owner of that token.

> 111.2. The player who creates a token is its owner. The token enters the battlefield under that player’s control.

That means you cannot steal them with Coveted Falcon.
