Monarchs are the initial rulers of each kingdom when you begin the game.
They have large amounts of renown (1000+), making their armies generally range anywhere between 200-400 troops strong. Faction monarchs also decide who gets fiefs after they are taken from other factions. If the player aids a claimant in gaining control over a faction, they will become its new monarch if they win.
All monarchs have a claim to the throne of Calradia - in Mount&Blade: Warband, the player may also compete for the title of Ruler of All Calradia.
