The Harbinger also is missing a finger. This implies he was like John Wick himself, probably a VERY skilled assassin and attends very important meetings as an enforcer. Had John Wick been a "good boy" and played by the rules, he would've probably ended up like the Harbinger. I can't help but feel he's some legendary assassin kept on a leash by the members of the high table, and could very well had been what John Wick could've ended up as.

3 things. 1) the Elder is said to sit "Above the Table", meaning that he doesn't have a seat as one of the heads. 2) Chidi is just someone that works for the Marquis, not a head of a family himself. 3) I am also not sure if Marquis is a head or just a member of the families that was given lots of power to take care of John Wick while being expendable himself so that they woulden't louse anything if he died.

the marquis was from a noble family that soon turned into a crime lord and subsequently became a lord of the table. also the position he was given in the fourth movie was a temporary title of "autum imperator" which basically gives him unlimited power so long as all the other lords approve of it.

I could be wrong but I don't think there's a rule against killing a member of the high table. In Chapter 3 the Adjudicator didn't say John was in trouble for killing Santino, he was in trouble for doing it on Continental grounds. If what this guy says is true then John would have been in trouble for killing the German guy for his sister because he was the head of his family and a member of the high table. It seems that the 12 members of the high table even as heads of their families still live under the same rules of the high table as the assassins do.

Since the "High Table" has existed an millenia with 12 member of powerful family, does it have any relation to the legend of King Arthur where his 12 knights seated at the round table (also a High Table in assumption), each 12 knights represented a family (later moved and settled around the world in future generations as crime mafias). And King Arthur himself was an Elder at the High Table.

John Wick probably have as much references to the Medieval Period as Game of Thrones TBH, even the act of absolving excommunication and Dueling is metioned both are very prominent in the period as well.

Some minor corrections: The opinion is that the Harbinger originates from the same group as the Adjudicator does, and is NOT a member of the High Table, but an enforcer who carries the weight of the High Table. This can be proven by the letter he gave Winston declaring the Continental New York to be "condemned". Winston revealed this to Charon, and told him that it had the signatures of ALL 12 members of the High Table. He didn't sign it, he simply brought it to Winston and gave him the hour that it would carried out. Also, the missing finger is actually associated with the Yakuza Crime Syndicate, and it a physical way to make atonement to ones oyabun, or "boss, overlord, one over others" in Japanese. This often entails the loss of a finger, sometimes even an ear or toes to say "I'm sorry I failed". As for the High Table, it is modeled in Roman Catholicism and even uses many of its terms. Like consecrated/deconsecrated, excommunicado (exile, banishment) And the THIRTEEN members of the High Table. Like the 12 Apostles at the Last Supper. And Jesus Christ above them, but sits with them. The Elder is basically their "Jesus" but acting more like an overseer and tie breaker for a vote. He sits above them. Also, the High Table members must be descendents of the original founding members. Like the DiSantorio family they go back to Roman times and the fittest of their children inherit the seat. Unless there is a "dispute" to that fitness to lead. Also, the gambler the Roska Roma asked for a tooth not as a trophy, but as proof of his death. Settlements of this nature often require a "souvenir" of sorts as proof to the family, and to the High Table of the unfortunate demise of a member. It was the only way John Wick could be claimed by a family. And for punishment of the Table Members? Let the punishment fit the infraction. The director's helping hands? Paid in blood with her hands being impaled. The Bowery King? 7 bullets, 7 bloody cuts for penance and reasserting of fealty.

I watched all 4 the movies when they first came out. Santino D'Antonio made a mistake. He wanted a seat at the High Table so he ordered John Wick via a Marker to kill his sister. Than when his sister was dead, Santino D'Antonio placed a bounty on John Wicks head leading to the dead of Santino D'Antonio himself, killed by John Wick. If the High Table really have a list of all these markers, they would know that Santino D'Antonio "cheated" the system. Cause even Winston said it himself to Santino D'Antonio, when he was still alive, that Santino D'Antonio stabbed the Devil in his back.
@bioniclefan1995
@bioniclefan1995 5 месяцев назад
If nothing else, the high table is arrogant. Admitting that Santino cheated the system would make them lose face as the organization that rules the underworld. This would ultimately have a destabilizing effect that could easily lead to the High Table being destroyed from within as trust breaks down and bad actors start using the semantics of the rules to kill other members. Killing John is an easier and far less reputation hitting move then admitting that their own simple rules were not airtight truths.

There are only 2 definite members of the high table. 1) The Marquis and 2) Santino. I think it's safe to assume whoever took over from Santino also took his place on the high table. Now you could make arguments for Killa Harkan, The Director and Chidi. Personnally I believe that the Director is a member, but Chidi was just an agent/enforcer and Killa was just an associate. As far as The Elder. I believe he was above the high table and therefore probably wasn't classed as a member. I saw someone mention the Tarasov family but that to me makes no sense. If there boss was a member, then why was Viggo Terrified of John and why did he pretty much just accept his sons death?. Viggo was the boss of the Tarasov family so Surely Viggo would have just been 'You touch my son, you're dead'. I guess it could be a plot hole, but I just don't think so. So in summary I believe that it looks something like the following: The Boss - The Elder High Table Members - 1) The Marquis, 2) Santino's replacement. Possibilties 3) The Director, 4) Killa Harkan, 5) Chidi. High table Agents/Enforcers - 1) Chidi, 2) The Harbinger. Possibility 3) Killa Harkan. The Elders Enforcer - 1) The Adjudicator.

Viggo was the boss of the American branch of the Tarasov family. His brother (Peter Stormare) is about to fuck out of the region, be it New York or America, it's unclear. The 4th movie does mention the Tarasovs as they were to meet with Koji in the Osaka Continental. I believe each member of the High Table resides at their country of origin, which is why Gianna D'Antonio in Italy while Santino was in New York, he would represent the Camorra in NY, but his sister was the superior leader. Viggo was the boss of the American branch of the Tarasovs and there's probably someone above him, and older brother or uncle perhaps, all the way back in Russia. We don't know the inner politics of the members of the High Table, and it's unclear if the Ruska Roma are actual members of the High Table or just bellow it, since the Director says she "will serve" and Vincent claims that their seat is "second-rate", but he's an asshole and that might just be bigotry. If the Ruska Roma are below the Table, that explains John leaving them to serve under the Tarasovs in America. John's infamous task was the complete extermination of Tarasov's rivals in a single night. I believe there was another family, maybe a russian one, perhaps even from the Table, and the catch was that by taking the on the task, John would've placed a target on his back, and that was Santino's favor, keeping heat off his ass.

@pwiddy7735 Год назад
@@elessartelcontar147 That doesn't make sense because if the rivals was a member of the high table they could have ordered John be killed, Santino wasn't a member of the high table at that point and there's no way Santino would have been able to keep the high table off of John. The only situation I can think off is this: Let's say Viggo's father was the boss of the entire Tarasov family and it was he that sits on the high table, he then orders John to take out there rivals who where the Camorra's, let's say for power in NY. Viggo's father then gives John a marker for his silence as the Camorra's also sit at the high table, because Viggo's father knows that if the high table found out then he would be killed and the Tarasov family would be removed from the high table. Which also means that Viggo and his brother know they can't move against John because of the marker there father gave him. John then handed the marker back to Viggo's father in exchange for him not ordering repercussions for killing his grandson and son. As for Santino, he found out about the hit on his family and decided to let it happen but on the condition that John give Santino a marker which Santino knew he could then use to get John to take out his sister so he could take her place on the high table. I mean it does sound very far fetched, but it may be able to explain it if the Tarasov family does have a place on the high table.

The Director is definitely a member of the high table. It was mentioned when Wick was talking to Winston about duels. John Wick said he can’t request a duel because he’s not a part of the table, but Winston replies that his “family” is (referring to the Ruska Roma).

The original order of Assassins were called "Hashassins" because they partook in smoking hash after a successful execution. The elder is the closest member of the table to original Assassin roots. Hence the name 'The High Table'. Or this makes no sense 😂

That would put the formation around 1090 A.D. Then their official dissolvement in the 1275 A.D and going underground would make them changing how exactly they would deal with world politics. They mostly probably exist so no one power is strong enough to risk the equilibrium of the world. Since the original Hashassins went after both Christian and Muslim who were a threat to its own power. I like this theory.

The Marquis was never confirmed as a High Table member; rather, Winston asserted that he served as a conduit for the High Table to channel their authority and directives to eliminate John Wick. Chidi, not being a member but embodying the Marquis, operated as a physical agent. It's noteworthy that the Elder doesn't hold a conventional seat within the High Table; explicit information suggests he occupies a position superior to the High Table, seated above its authority.
@tree_addict280
@tree_addict280 10 месяцев назад
Yes, Marquis was 'hired' (if you could call it that) by the Table and they channelled as much resources as he needed to dispose of Wick to him. I don't understand why there is so much debate about this when, atleast from what I remember, the movie mentions it clearly.

Welp first the elder is someone who sits above the table, and has pretty much the highest authority, 2ndly, marquis along with his family had association with the high table, but not a holder of the one of the twelve seats, he was selected and approved by the 12 seats member as the person to punish john wick and everyone who helped him with full backing and the backing became even more powerful after john shots the elder, also chidi works for marquis not a member of high table. 3rdly, the 12 seats of the high tables are basically are occupied by strongest crime families in the world, and only 7 were revealed, russian bratava, Chinese triad, camorras, japanese yakuza, latin america cartels, costa nostra, ndrangheta. 4th, I don't think it's against any rules to kill a member of the high tables, only problem is that the family of the deceased will put a bounty worldwide to hunt you down, because when the adjuducator came in newyork she clearly said, that a member of the hightable was killed while taking sanctuary in the continental hotel, and under his watch and he didn't killed John because he deemed it not to be, she never said anything about john breaking rules except killed someone in the continental grounds, and just mentions that he has killed two members of the high table and has killed dozens of men. About the other members of the 12 seats prob a few of then are occupied by governments, cause they are all doing this under their noses, so they will most def needs some sort of agreement between them, or maybe some strong criminal families with old heritages.
@jacksonchen7916
@jacksonchen7916 Год назад
The high table is a stabilizing organization, the 12 seats are leaders of their own organization, Chinese triad I assume, camora Italian mafia, Russian mafia, Russia Roma, etc etc etc then there’s continental hotels, it’s more like a safe house, provides goods and services, intel, maybe even job assignments to assassins. Assassins can join family/organization, or can free roam, notice how many that know John wick are under someone? Cassius works for camora, he said leader of camora is his ward. So I assume each family/organization has their own territory, does business in peace and order, if there aren’t the high table then these families/organizations would just battle one another. The duel is one way for someone representing a family/organization to openly disobey hightable decision/order, because any assassin is available to the hightable, hightable can assign anyone to the duel that’s why john wick became a “saint” or legend in winning duel vs person assigned by hightable, marquis doesn’t have to enter the duel himself he represents hightable and can assign anyone he deems fit. The families/organizations under the hightable we can see them politically, they all want the best for their interests. Continental hotels managers I assume are assigned to a area where multiple families/organizations are present and can oversee the area, notice how New York continental is in between ruska Roma, Italians, Chinese, Russians, so continental hotels directly appointed by the hightable and is equally to the 12 families, families/organizaitons does business with the hotels.
@jacksonchen7916

To the families, John wick doesn’t matter, because John wick does not represent a families in battling vs another family/organization, because John wick is a free roam assassin, John wick is a orphan and from ruska Roma (gypsies) known for their persistence in overcoming hardships, but John wick does not work for ruska Roma’s interests, notice John wick’s basement has phone, book, he takes job by himself

If a John would have done what that group wanted he would have become like the Harbinger and still served and John’s please is “above the table” to restore and ensure its integrity.

I have a really powerful connecting theory, it’s a “Nerd Gift” that I have, by through the actors, you see in a slightly different wide range of the different universe, as you said this being the John Wick Universe, I connect that to something to others, to me John Wick is like a “Batman”, what was said about him from Viggo Tarasov to his idiot son Iosef Tarasov, “He is the man you send to kill the Boogeyman”, following that to the final one, of the main villain who afraid of John Wick, Marquis Vincent de Gramont, now actor Bill Skarsgard, in the horse stable he clearly showed a slight emotional response of how John Wick is driving him to to his insanity, even the way he dressed, similar to the “Joker”, and in Joker did he play of horror clown 2017 to 2019 “It”, which happens to be the Boogeyman of Derry, Maine Town, now you see where it all perfectly forms up in place of this “connecting theory” of mine, it’s all pretty extraordinary of one other film to another matches up, one actor being similar to another creature, matches up to words said about the other.

The video is highly inaccurate of the High table members and the structure of the High Table. The Elder is the only one who sits above the table and he can be switched out any time as its been confirmed that the Elder in John Wick 3 is not the same as the one in John Wick 4. Some notes: - The Marquis Vincent Bisset de Gramont(Better known as the Marquis) is a senior member who likely had a seat at the High Table before he was given the task to eliminate John Wick and is promoted to Autem Imperator, the highest rank that can be given to a High Table Agent under the table. - The Bowry King does not operate with the High Table and though he is recognized by the High Table, he holds no authority or place in it. - The Adjudicator is a rank that is only given to one person who serves as the messenger of the High Table. A new Adjudicator is appointed whenever the old one dies. - The Harbingers are like Adjudicators, who are essentially messengers though Harbingers also oversee the execution of events and customs of the High Table such as duels. There can be multiple at once and their position is similar to that of an Adjudicator. - High Table seats are only offered the to head of each crime family and there are 12 seats total. However, we only know of 3(or 4) groups that have positions and the rest are assumed. 1 crime family can have multiple seats though as The Ruska Roma has two seats, one of which went to Katia after Pyotr died and the other went to the Director who is John's surrogate mother. - Notable families are the Tarasov Crime Family(Viggo Tarasov and Abram Tarasov, however, both do not have a position at the High Table), Ruska Roma(Headed by Pyotr, Katia, and the Director), Cammora(Gianna D'Antonio and Santino D'Antonio), and German Crime Syndicate(Unknown). - Hotels and the managers have a position that is directly below a Harbinger and Adjudicator. The Hotel managers have the power to declare Excommunicado to rule breakers and they can also deconsecrate their own hotels when necessary. They also keep watch over the peace in the hotel. While they must follow the rules of the High Table, as demonstrated by Winston, they can not be forced to carry out orders by others regardless of their rank though as Sophia later demonstrated, are still bound by the rules and markers. - High Table Enforcers are the standard personnel of the High Table and can be anyone. Enforcers can also serve in groups as seen with Zero and his ninjas. - High Table soldiers are the High Table's personal army and are only used whenever forces are needed in a deconsecrated area. - Agents are anyone who operated under the High Table and they outranked everyone up to the Hotel managers. - Assassins, Henchmen, and Bodyguards are any members of the High table who serve any criminal group. Their rank varies and depends on the crime family they work for but they are all below that of the High table. Their allegiances can change over time and some of these people can build a reputation that is as respected as a Hotel Manager. John Wick himself was one of these members and due to his reputation as "Baba Yaga", he was very respected and his coins held very great value. Caine, Chidi, Ares, Cassian, Perkins, Marcus, Kirill, Avi, and Aurelio are all part of this group as well. - Hotel Staff are people who work at the Continental Hotel and can perform a variety of jobs. Their rank varies though it is on the same level as that of Assassin, Henchmen, and Bodyguards. There are only two rules in the Continental: - No killing on Continental Grounds. Even Excommunicado can not be killed on these premises as Zero was threated with this if he killed an excommunicated John Wick while Perkins was killed outside the hotel. - Every marker must be fulfilled and you can not kill the bearer of your marker even if your bearer is Excommunicado. There are three forms of official High Table punishments: - Excommunicado: Applies to anyone below the Elder. Those labeled as Excommunicado have all their privileges and membership revoked and can not be helped unless the helper wishes to suffer consequences. The only exception are those who owe a marker to the Excommunicado. Excommunicado's are a kill on site target and not only are they assigned high bounties but they also marked as the first priority. This status can only be reversed by the Elder or a High Table Duel. - Deconsecrated: Applies to High Table Hotels. The hotel's immunity and protection are revoked and the Hotel is no longer recognized as sacred grounds. Killing is now permitted in the hotel and the goal is to seize the hotel's control, though the hotel can be reconsecrated and restored under certain conditions. - Condemned: Applies to High Table Hotels. The hotel is destroyed though it can be rebuilt and reconsecrated under certain conditions. - Punishments can be reversed by the Elder or a High Table Duel. High Table Duels are also used to settle disputes. Gold Coins and Currency: - Gold Coins have no set value and their real value is determined by the person holding the coin. To give a coin is to repay a favor. - Standard currency is usable though mainly in bounties. And lastly, weapons and armor: - Varies from region and provider. Most of the time, armor can be suits but sometimes, they can be actual body armor. Weapons are another story as almost every armory carries the same set of weapons with slight variations. However, some places like Japan may sell weapons that are exclusive to their region in particular while Continental Hotels all possess their own personal armories.

The rules were already broken the moment Santino went for his own sister's life to claim her position at the High Table. Fact that they dont even acknowledge that Santino was wrong for that especially when he went ahead and put a bounty on John Wick's head when he already done his business shows the flaws of their ways. Just because you're a High Table member doesn't exempt you from consequences so why is it that no actions were taken against Santino for not only putting a kill against his sister using the Marker that he has against John wick, but also put a bounty on John Wick who was literally forced to accomplished his promise with the Marker that he made with Santino. Shame that order of the High Table likes to play favourites.
