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. |

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 skill in Dodger, Shield User, and Armor User, and the "doesn't really care about anything anymore" trait. This wave will arrive even if you have exceeded your [[Immigration|population cap]]. | 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.
