The monarch is the highest level {{L|noble}}. Rather than being promoted from within, like the [[baron]], [[count]], and [[duke]], the monarch arrives as an immigrant from the previous capital. Males are known as "king" and females are known as "queen". They 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 {{L|adamantine}}. {{Verify}}

You may check how close you are to meeting the requirements for a monarch's arrival by pressing {{k|n}} {{k|c}} after you have a population of at least 140. (This option does not appear on the Noble screen at first.)

Once the monarch arrives, your fortress becomes the capital of your civilization. Because of this, you will no longer receive visits from a dwarven {{L|liaison}}, nor can you give goods to dwarf caravans as offerings.

The monarch arrives at the at the same time within a season an immigration wave does, but have an entirely separate entourage that can spawn from a different part of the map.

:''A giant flying mammal found underground.''

'''Giant Bats''' can be used as a mount by {{L|goblin}} siegers. Groups of goblins will sometimes have an elite riding these giant bats into battle, other times entire squads of goblin riders will siege your fortress. They can also be tamed and used as {{L|Kennel|hunting animals}} if your fortress has a {{L|Dungeon Master}}.

v0.31:Currency

2010-11-17T01:45:06Z

Excedion: added information on coins

{{quality|Tattered|20:53, 16 August 2010 (UTC)}}{{av}}

The game's currency is measured in "☼", called "dwarfbucks" or "db's" by some players.

Aside from "dwarfbucks" physical coins can be minted at the metalsmiths forge using a single metal bar and one unit of fuel. Each bar produces 500 coins which have a total value based on which metal they were made from. For example 500 gold coins have a value of 300☼ whereas 500 silver coins have a value of 100☼. Coins have their own stockpile p->n with which bins can be used to store 6 stacks of coins (3000 total). Coins are named based on the year they are minted and the name of your fortress e.g Thidalsokt 108 Gold coins. The coins also depict scenes like statues.

Unlike other crafted metal items coins do not seem to have a value modifier based on quality(verify?)

Looking at the RAWS, DF2010 will contain some changes to coins, coins will have subjects on them and we guess this means they are useful now.
