The monarch is the highest level noble, and also the noble of the highest precedence. Rather than being promoted from within, like the baron, count, and duke, the monarch arrives as an immigrant from the previous capital. A male monarch is known as a "king" and a female as a "queen". Either may arrive with an opposite gendered "king consort" or "queen consort", as well as an entourage that can include elite military dwarves and ordinary workers. Unlike previous versions, the monarch will no longer come upon the discovery of adamantine.
You may check how close you are to meeting the requirements for a monarch's arrival by pressing n c after you have a population of at least 140. This option does not appear on the Nobles screen before then.
When the monarch arrives, your fortress becomes the capital of your civilization. That means you will no longer receive visits from a dwarven liaison, nor can you give goods to dwarven caravans as offerings.
The monarch arrives at the same time as an immigration wave, but has an entirely separate entourage that can spawn from a different part of the map. The monarch's entourage consists of a group of dwarves with Legendary +5 skill in a random weapon (but no skill in Fighter), Accomplished Dodger, Shield User, and Armor User, and that enter play with the "doesn't really care about anything anymore" trait.
It may occur that your monarch is a several hundred years old vampire who had over 12000 kills before even arriving in the city. With that much experience, it is no wonder he is still king.
Some monarchs have been known to drop dead as soon as they enter the map, especially in older fortresses.
