Lol, you can make EPIC's you just cant choose them to be, now, i dont know what your talking about when you say a tic tac with eyes but... I made a creature with 5 on all attacking stats, and it was shaped like a tic tac so... >_>
If you make a creature in the creature editor, and play a different character, there is a chance one of your made creatures will be an epic, i encountered my tic tac, and didnt stand a chance xD (Epic tic-tac)
