The Great Prophecy of Twins

This Great Prophecy, which is not so much a prophecy as one of the unwritten Laws of Epicness (as is the case with most great prophecies), states that twins named alliteratively or with a rhyming scheme are destined for epicness. It has proved itself many times without fail. Identical twins, twins that finish each other's sentances, and other factors that increase similarity act as coefficients to increase the Epicness.

Examples of the Most Epic Twins:

• Haul and Gaul, along with the rest of the Hammer Lords, a line of twins born of twins to ensure an Epic fate.
• The commission of Several Dwarves sent by Br'gi, who were four pairs of identical twin brothers, all of whom were cousins, which greatly amplified their potential for Epicness.
• Perry and Airey of The Brotherhood of the Wardrobe
• Jacob and Macob, who were a sort of twins.
• To a lesser extent: Gregory and Oryand, although they would never answer to this combination of their names.
• Enxim Ott and Wbzun Ott, who were posthumously considered to present the evil flipside of the prophecy, which states that twins who have unrelated names that are difficult to pronounce and write are destined to sow seeds of Epic Strife.*

*This should not be confused with the Rule of Villainous X's, Z's, G's and K's.
