1) Plot centers around a Hero of Unbelievable Stature. The epic hero completes what everyone only attempts. In ancient epics, the hero often is either partially divine or at least protected by a god or God.

2) Involves deeds of superhuman strength and valor. Accomplish feats no real human could.

3) Vast Setting. The action spans not only geographical but also often cosmological space: across land, sea, into the underworld, or thru space or time etc.

4) Involves supernatural and-or otherworldly forces. Gods, demons, angels, time/space travel, cheating death etc.

5) Sustained elevation of style. Overwritten. Overly formal, highly stylized (poetry, lyricism (singing), exaggeration)

6) Poet remains objective and omniscient. The narrator sees and knows all and presents all perspectives.
