Editing Epic

: Firefight is a member of Steelheart's elite three and his bodyguard. He is supposed to be a Fire Epic. David figured out that he is actually an illusion created by the real "Firefight" whose power is later revealed to actually be bringing different realities into the one he is in. i.e., Firefight being a fire-based Epic in a different dimension, and the Firefight in the book bringing a shadow of that alternate reality into his own dimension. Firefight was revealed to be [[Megan Tarash]]. She has reincarnation powers. Her weakness is fire, meaning if she is killed by fire, she will not reincarnate.{{book ref|firefight|7}}

: Fortuity has precognition powers. He can sense the future and danger. He also has secondary superhuman reflexes and dexterity. He was a moderately high-ranking Epic. He had a long face and hawkish nose. His weakness is that his danger sense is weakened in the presence of those he is attracted to. He was killed by [[Megan Tarash|Megan]], who shot him at both sides of Fortuity while he was in the air.{{book ref|Steelheart|4}}{{book ref|Steelheart|5}}{{book ref|Steelheart|1}}

: Serves [[Regalia]]. Has a secondary power of increased speed. Unknown if she has a primary power, or if increased speed is her only one (which would make it her primary ability). Primary invincibility granted by protective fields which reflect any impact with equal force.{{book ref|firefight|20}} As shown, this ability could also be used in a way that increased speed of transport, as when she jumps from building to building, the field bounces her back up, allowing for facilitated transport. Her weakness is being complimented, which disables her ability to reflect any impact.{{book ref|firefight|46}}

: Considered to be as feared as Steelheart and Obliteration. Their powers are unknown.{{book ref|steelheart|12}}

: Jonathan Phaedrus, otherwise known as Prof, was revealed to be an Epic in [[Steelheart]].{{book ref|steelheart|41}} He has two defensive abilities, both of which alone would classify him as High Epic. The first ability is regeneration, which allows rapid healing of any wound.{{book ref|steelheart|41}} The second defensive ability is forcefields, which can be formed at seemingly any size, and could have size regulated once already formed.{{book ref|firefight|39}} The forcefields are impenetrable to anything, and can also be used to fly when stood on. His final ability is an offensive power, which allows him to dissolve and tunnel into solid objects.{{book ref|steelheart|14}} Prof is a [[Gifter]] Epic, and as a result can lend his abilities to Reckoners, which he disguises as technologies which he has created.{{book ref|steelheart|14}}{{book ref|steelheart|15}} Also known as [[Jonathan Phaedrus|Limelight]].{{book ref|Calamity|13}} His weakness is a fear of failure.{{book ref|calamity|46}}

: Redleaf was an Epic in Canada who was killed by the Reckoners when [[Jonathan Phaedrus|Prof]] jumped from a helicopter and shot him. His powers and weaknesses are unknown.{{book ref|steelheart|16}}

: Real name was Emiline Bask. Killed by the Reckoners after she was sent to Newcago by Regalia in an attempt to draw Prof to Babylon Restored. Had the ability to control electricity. Surrounded by an aura of electricity which dissolved any bullet that would under other circumstances impact. Her weakness is being exposed to Kool-Aid, being drenched causes her powers to weaken, and swallowing Kool-Aid disables them entirely. {{book ref|firefight|1}}

: Steelheart is described as having an inhumanly large and strong chest. He was nearly seven feet tall with jet-black hair. He is impervious to bullets and other weapons. He can release yellow-white energy from his hand that vaporizes any object, animate or inanimate, it strikes. When he is angry, he can transform inanimate things around him into steel. This does not affect living things. He has incredible strength, can command the winds, and fly with perfect control. He has a perfect memory. His weakness was that he could only be killed by someone who didn't fear him. {{book ref|steelheart|prologue}}

: Strongtower shows an ability like one Steelheart has.{{book ref|steelheart|12}}

: Conflux is a member of Steelheart's elite three. Very little was known about Conflux. He was supposed to run Enforcement. He is a "gifter" or a transference Epic. He can give two of his powers to others. He isn't known to have any immortality powers. One of his powers is that he can create enormous stores of energy from his body. Conflux is used to power Newcago's electricity. His real name is Edmund Sense. He is an old Indian man. He was held captive by Steelheart to use his powers to power the city. He was used as a battery. He was first captured by an Epic named Bastion a month after Conflux's change. He was sold to an Epic named Insulation next. He accidentally killed his wife while trying to power the microwave. His weakness was a fear of dogs, which he surmounted while in captivity.{{book ref|steelheart|32}}

:Dawnslight is an Epic in the city of [[Babilar]] who feeds the people by making fruits grow faster. He also caused the spraypaint in the city to glow and radios to run without batteries. In reality, Dawnslight is a permanently bedridden invalid. While very young, and before obtaining his powers, he fell into a life-long coma. He seems to be exempt from Calamity’s corruption-inducement.{{book ref|firefight|10}}

: Deathpoint is a known Epic that was killed by [[David]]'s father on the [[Day of Annexation]]. He had the ability to disintegrate living things by pointing at them, though their bones were always left unharmed. Worn items (like a holstered gun or a swaddling blanket) also appear to be unaffected. He was tall and lean, but solid. He was muscled and toned in a way that could be seen through his clothes. He is also speculated to have a second ability, one that was never shown, but appears to require physical contact and can be assumed to be more powerful than his first, as he attempts to use it on Steelheart despite his first being ineffective.{{book ref|steelheart|prologue}}

* Transference Epics can give others their powers. These Epics are also known as Gifters.{{book ref|steelheart|13}} Gifter Epics are able to give a portion of their powers to people within a certain range of them and for a limited time. The power they give away is not affected by their weakness. While gifting powers to others, Gifter Epics lose some of the corruption and desire to do evil that is associated with Epics. The more power that an epic is gifting (the more people being gifted to), the greater the reduction in evil intent. Gifters cannot give their powers to another Epic.{{book ref|steelheart|41}}

Power duality is when an Epic has two second-tier abilities that meld into a first-tier one. An example of this would be the Epic Faultline. Faultline actually had two separate abilities regarding shifting earth, but combined both of them to have the power to make the ground loose, push objects into it, and re-solidify the ground.{{book ref|steelheart|12}}
