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 existing monarch arrives as an immigrant from the previous capital. However, one of your fortress residents may become monarch if the previous monarch was killed or the position was vacant. A male monarch is known as a "king" and a female as a "queen". Either may arrive with a "king consort" or "queen consort", as well as an entourage that can include elite military dwarves and ordinary workers.
Requirements for a monarch's arrival can be checked by pressing n c after a fortress has reached a certain wealth. It is unclear exactly what these requirements are, but usually a fortress must be a metropolis, and has appointed a baron. These requirement notably do not apply when one of your fortress residents is elevated to monarch.
With the presence of the monarch, a fortress becomes the capital of its civilization. As a result, it can no longer receive visits from a dwarven liaison, nor can it 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 skill in Dodger, Shield User, and Armor User, and the "doesn't really care about anything anymore" trait. The monarch will arrive even if you have exceeded your population caps, though the entourage may be limited by the caps.
It may be that your monarch is an ancient vampire with thousands of kills to his name before arriving at your fortress. Some monarchs have been known to drop dead as soon as they enter the map, especially in older worlds. Monarchs may also be of a different race, such as an elven king.
Random dwarves in dwarf fortress mode can become monarchs if the current monarch dies or if the position was vacant (common in dying civilizations). If the position no longer exists (i.e. the civilization is truly extinct) then no monarch will be appointed until the civilization is "resurrected" (by unretiring a fortress, for example).
