The Dragon's Eye Emerald

This Ancient Gem, "The Dragon's Eye Emerald" has been passed down from one Elder of the High Table to the next, for countless generations. He who possesses this stone, along with the other trademarks of the Elder, carries with him the power of Ordo Imperatum, granting him supreme durisdiction over all affairs above or below the High Table organization.

One of the most ancient games among the ancient order of assassins, even long before the formation of the High Table, was for the members of the Brotherhood to compete over who could steal the Dragon's Eye Emerald, whilst both evading detection, and without having to resort to murdering its current holder. This practice was held as a way for the members of the brotherhood to keep each other sharp, alert and on the ball.

But once the High Table formed and all the original members of the Brotherhood had passed on, this playful practice became a deadly competition over who would have supreme authority and final say over the affairs of the High Table and its members.

The Eternity Coin | Mark of The Ordo Imperadum

The Eternity coin is the ultimate show of authority over all member both above and below the High Table. This ancient gold coin was thought to be lost for hundreds, perhaps thousands of years, following the various wars and skirmishes between the members of the High Table and the Continental Managers.

Legand states that the Eternity Coin was minted long before the High Table was even established, and many cannot even fathom how it was made, or how it has maintained its durability throughout the ages. It is also said that whomever holds this coin, represents the progenitor bloodline that Founded the High Table Organization, whom were thought to have all been eliminated from the world a long time ago. This coin was said to have been lost a long time ago, when the current 12 families of the High Table first established their Occult Order and the Continental Hotels.It's been said that the Bloodline of the Founder  had been replaced by the sitting 12 families who currently rule over the World of Assassins.

Vintage Blood Oath Marker

Blood Oath Markers are an ancient right of "One's Word is One's Bond" however the word leaves not a mark - your blood does. For hundreds, perhaps thousands of years, the world of assassins used Blood Oaths to keep their word to one another. One you do a great deed for someone, you can present them with a Marker, representing their intent to return the favour at a later date, no matter what the task may be.

The one receiving the gidt of another's word marks their blood inside the Marker, and unpon repayment, the giver of the gift and the Marker marks their own blood, completing the contracted Blood Oath.

Continental Gold Coins

The Continental Hotels were established to observe and distribute responsibility in a top down manner from the 12 members of the High Table. Though they do reserve a certain amoung of autonomy and durisdiction over their own locations, members and holdings. They are left t operate independently, save only from the discernment of the High Table Adjudicators.

These gold coins are produced exclusively for the commerce surrounding the Continental Hotels and their members, and are carefully manufactured, counted and accounted for by the Continental Hotel managers. However, following the events of John Wick: Chapter 4, the original coin press that produced these coins was lost in the skirmish of power between the Continental Hotels and the High Table members. The press is said to have been destroyed along with the New York Continental. In our story, now only a small and very exclusive number of coins are in circulation, and are highly sought after by all assassins under the High Table, due to their very limited supply.

Ancient Continental Coin Press

Following the destruction of the New York Continental during the war of the Rebels taking on the High Table, it was thought unanimously after many years of searching that the coin press had been lost or destroyed. And following the defeat of the Rebels, the remaining Continental Hotels and their managers were de-consecrated, their managers murdered and their holdings are now controlled directly by the High Table and its emissaries.

By maintaining a strict scarcity of the remaining coins in circulation, the High Table has been able to exact a tyrannical grip over the lives of those serving under the table... until one day, a rumor begins to spread that the Ancient Coin Press may still be out there... though no one can say where exactly.

"The Elder's Reach" | Legacy Side Arm of the High Table Elder

The High Table has always prided itself on crafting prestigious, iconic items to carry their heritage.When money is no object, and the law is yours to command, style and design take on no boundaries. 

This gold plated, vintage engraved 9mm (styled) pistol is a Legacy that is passed down from one High Table Elder to the next. However, following the collapse of their generational dominance over the underworld, many artifacts like this pistol went missing, and lost to time. It may not be until a certain destiny is reached, and a new Elder is appointed, before this pistol might carry on its Legacy of being the personal side arm of the one who sits above the High Table... or perhaps it is time for this treasure to take on a new Legacy, and be placed upon the plane of a new table...on The Low Table.

Prop Gun Mechanics:

All of these toy guns, including the one above, are completely harmless. All pieces and moving parts are made only with spring actions. The body of the gun and magazines are made of medium quality yet durable plastic, and they shoot small, soft plastic pellets, to a max distance of about 10 meters. 

The sping action as two steps. First the gun iteself has a spring action built in, to simulate throwing back the hammer, ejecting the empty casings, and chambering the next round. The clips on average hold up to 6 small casings that look like empty shells. Inside each shell there's a very small but powerful spring. By taking a pellet and pressing it into the casing, the pellet's design catches on a tesion switch inside the casing. You can then load up to 6 casing in the clip, just like bullets. The pellets remain in the casings until you fire, and a plastic primer hammer hits a small trigger on the back of the casing, releasing the pellet from the casing and firing it out with the spring.

Even with completely empty cases, and nothing firing out of the gun but empty shells to the side, these prop hand guns appear to be able to simulate the most real gun action I could find within my price range. Even with slo-mo, it would capture the image of what appears to be a real gun firing and ejecting empty shells, once all the animation and effects are composited in, like the sound effects, muzzle flashing and smoke overlays.
