=== Known High Epics ===
 
; [[Absence]]
; [[Absence]]: Absence was an Epic killed by the Reckoners a year before [[Steelheart]], the book. {{book ref|Steelheart|15}}
 
; [[Armsman]]
; [[Armsman]]: Armsman is in Omaha. The Reckoners were possibly planning to kill him.(probably not a high epic)
 
; [[Calamity (Epic)|Calamity]]
 
; [[SteelheartCalling (Epic)|SteelheartWar]]
; [[Calling War]]: The Reckoners attempted to kill Calling War, but failed and barely managed to escape using [[tensors]].
: 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. 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.
 
; [[Clapper]]
; [[Clapper]]: Classified as High Epic due to his ability to warp air around him in a way which caused anything such as a spear or bullet to not go around him, but through him, without there being actual impact.
 
; [[Daystorm]]
; [[Daystorm]]: Daystorm was trapped and killed by the Reckoners.
 
; [[Earless]]
; [[Earless]]: Earless was killed by the Reckoners.
 
; [[Firefight (Epic)|Firefight]]
: 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" who's 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.
 
; [[Fortuity]]
: 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 if he is attracted to you. He was killed by [[Megan]], she killed him by shooting at both sides of Fortuity while he was in the air.
 
; [[Gyro]]
; [[Shadowblight]]: ShadowblightGyro was killed by the Reckoners.
 
; [[Ides Hatred]]
; [[Ides Hatred]]: Ides Hatred went to Newcago to challenge Steelheart. They destroyed an entire city block in the battle. Steelheart was victorious.
 
; [[Lightning]]
; [[Lightning]]: Lightning is a Epic in Snowfall's band in Sacramento. he was also a possible planned target of the Reckoners.
 
; [[Mitosis]]
; [[Mitosis]]: Mitosis, or Lawrence Robert, was able to make exact copies of himself. He split into two, each clone able to replicate itself. There is not a known limit of how many copies of himself he could make. If any copies of Mitosis exist, then he can still live. All the clones are connected and if one is killed they all know it. They can't share memories until they recombine. It was thought that the more copies that were made, the dumber they would get. That was proved false. When a copy was killed, the corpses decomposed into goo. The more clones that were created, the weaker their molecular structure holds together. Music from his old band, Weaponized Cupcakes, was his weakness and caused his copies to disintegrate. As of now, his power is assumed to be unique by the Reckoners. Mitosis came from Babylon Restored, while Prof and Cody had been in Babilar, a part of Babylon Restored, to find David and learn how Steelheart was killed. He was, before Calamity, part of an old rock group, Weaponized Cupcakes.
 
; [[Newton]]
; [[Newton]]: 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. 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.
 
; [[Night's Sorrow]]
; [[Night's Sorrow]]: Considered to be as feared as Steelheart and Obliteration.
 
; [[Nightwielder]]
: Nightwielder is a member of Steelheart's elite three. Nightwielder causes perpetual darkness. He is a physically shadowy figure with an incorporeal form. He can move through solid objects and control darkness. He is immune to gunfire or any type of weapon. He can control the mist of darkness he creates and solidify it. UV waves weaken him and make him corporeal. He has Asian features and black shoulder-length hair. The smell of phosphorous is a sign of him using his powers. He rarely speaks during business interactions.
 
; [[FortuityObliteration]]
; [[Obliteration]]: Serves [[Regalia]]. Obliteration is a high epic described as wearing a long, black trench coat, spectacles, and having a goatee. Obliteration's primary power is absorbing heat from sunlight or objects (living or inanimate.) He then stores this heat and is able to release it in a powerful burst. An example of him using this power is when he reportedly sat bare chested in the middle of the city of Houston for several days storing energy. He then proceeded to destroy the entire city by releasing all the heat at once in a single burst. A secondary power is enhanced strength. Has a danger sense, which causes him to instantly teleport. Frequently recites scripture, considering himself one of the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse. Unknown weakness.

; [[Jonathan Phaedrus|Prof]]
; [[Armsman]]: Armsman is in Omaha. The Reckoners were possibly planning to kill him.(probably not a high epic)
; [[Jonathan Phaedrus|Prof]]: Prof was revealed to be an Epic in [[Steelheart]]. 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. The second defensive ability is forcefields, which can be formed at seemingly any size, and could have size regulated once already formed. 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. Prof is a [[Gifter]] epic, and as a result can lend his abilities to Reckoners, which he disguises as technologies which he has created.
 
; [[Redleaf]]
; [[Lightning]]: Lightning is a Epic in Snowfall's band in Sacramento. he was also a possible planned target of the Reckoners.
; [[Gyro]]: GyroRedleaf was an Epic in Canada who was killed by the Reckoners when [[Jonathan Phaedrus|Prof]] jumped from a helicopter and shot him.
; [[Shadowblight]]: Shadowblight was killed by the Reckoners.
