Voidus Posted October 25, 2015 Report Share Posted October 25, 2015 Other people prepare for zombies. We prepare for epics. I'd hide out somewhere noisy, crowded, bright and full of people I don't know. I'd lay false trail to a bookstore, though. My plan for both is actually pretty similar. And there's only one person who knows most of it so as long as they're not an Epic then I'll be good. And if they are then I guess I'm dead. Ideally though I'd be the one who's an Epic because I already have a plan for how to get myself trapped if I'm either an Epic or zombie so hopefully someone will trap me long enough for my Rending to end and then I can work on becoming Redeemed. And in the meantime I will channel my Epic selfishness into amassing the best library ever. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

king of nowhere Posted November 2, 2015 Report Share Posted November 2, 2015 ever since i moved for my PhD, all my loved ones are in another country. So, unless their specific power was teleportation, I'd just remain where I am and call it a day. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aon tEhe Posted November 20, 2015 Report Share Posted November 20, 2015 Even if i was caught off-guard, all one has to do against an average epic is throw crap in their way and run. If i did know, though, I would likely take out the stairs with an axe after getting a crapload of food supplies from downstairs to upstairs and wait out the days. Let the reckoners do the dirty work. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thermophile Posted November 26, 2015 Report Share Posted November 26, 2015 (edited) My sister would probably become the epic, and she'd probably hunt me down pretty quick, considering I have a good guess at her weakness. Honestly, my survival would likely depend on what powers she had. There's a place about a quarter mile from my house, but that would only be a short term solution. Yeah, I'd probably die. Horribly.

Young Bard Posted November 26, 2015 Report Share Posted November 26, 2015 (edited) What would you do if one of their Epic powers was being able to locate anything. So... Voidus is 500km that way. Then all your plans would be worth basically zilch. What would I do? Assuming they don't have the above mentioned power, I'd probably go to the Airport. They've tightened security there ever since Islamic State has supposedly become a threat. Depending on how much money I had, I might then board another flight and move as far away as possible.

Patrick Star Posted December 25, 2015 Report Share Posted December 25, 2015 (edited) Or maybe I'll just stay in Philly as a 76ers fan. Representing that 1-30 record Knowing Epics, they'd be too sadistic to put me out of my misery. Edit: The 76ers are actually 1-30, not 1-29 like I had said. But at this point, I could probably just put 1-whatever, and they'll get there. Edited December 26, 2015 by Patrick Star 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Patrick Star Posted December 26, 2015 Report Share Posted December 26, 2015 I would try to go to the moon. Um. You do realize you'd be walking straight into Calamity, right? Not great for hiding. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stormgate Posted December 26, 2015 Report Share Posted December 26, 2015 There is confusion about whether Calamity is even there. Calamity can be seen everywhere in the world, and even appeared through Nightwielder's cloud of darkness. Calamity isn't really there. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lopen Posted December 27, 2015 Report Share Posted December 27, 2015 If someone I knew became an epic I'd go stick around Sanderson, cuz I'm sure he'd think of a way to overcome any epic! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lopen Posted December 27, 2015 Report Share Posted December 27, 2015 If my sister became an epic I would probably blast kpop as loud as I could and show her the latest dank memes. She'd definitely melt. I can hear her listening to kpop whilst giggling very loudly. lol 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Voidus Posted December 27, 2015 Report Share Posted December 27, 2015 Actually given the fact that I have about 1000 pages of Epic power ideas and uses I think I could probably just bargain my way out of getting killed by any loved-one Epics. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patrick Star Posted December 29, 2015 Report Share Posted December 29, 2015 Oh look, a second win. True sadisticness there. Dangling glimmers of hope in the void, then extinguishing them. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Voidus Posted December 31, 2015 Report Share Posted December 31, 2015 That would get you thirty seconds, tops I couldn't even begin to get through my ideas related to Epic powers in thirty seconds. I'd die from old age before I got through it all. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patrick Star Posted January 27, 2016 Report Share Posted January 27, 2016 Holy crap! My 76ers are actually 6-9 in the last 15 games! We're not actually the most hopeless team in the league anymore! Looks like I'm going to be a Nets fan in the inevitable epic apocalypse. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bluest Posted April 7, 2017 Report Share Posted April 7, 2017 I had to necropost this, it was just too good If one of my family members became an epic I'd be off pretty good if it were one of my siblings, especially Reed as he has no sense whatsoever. I'd probably chop off my hair, dye it, buy colored eye lenses, get all the essentials (food, water, books, notebooks, pencils, and like $60), get as far away as possible (probably somewhere cold because my family knows I can't stand the cold for too long), find an orphanage (I'm twelve) and hide there and hope they don't find me until I am an adult. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
