Never one to let semantics get in the way, may I offer some alternatives, Instead of King how about Briar Overlord or The Pipe Imperator
In a bygone administration you could be the Tobacco Czar or Aromatic Emperor, The Burley Prince, or maybe The Maharajah of Meerschaum, but I digress.........

As far as king, I vote for @motie2... no @PappyJoe... no wait, @motie2... no, hold on, @PappyJoe... no, I've changed my mind... ... ... or have I? ... ... ... ... ...
Well, the four barons serving Henry II of England thought they would make their king happy if they murdered his friend Thomas a Becket. They've been held up as an example of overeager assholes and betrayers ever since. A good 700 (?) years of infamy for them.
@AnantnAndroscoggin ... Hey, that sounds like my cup of tea. Don't know about the over eager part ... but I'm sure I could easily qualify for the asshole bit. I've been called that for years by my friends and family. So I have some experience.
Well, I'd like to know why it was necessary to create the Monster out of so many different corpses and in such a hard to buy off the rack size. Wouldn't it have been much simpler to just replace a damaged part or two on one corpse and reanimate from that point? Also minimizes the risk of getting Abby Normal's brain.

I'm just your court jester.
Not so, good sir.
Does the job include free tobacco? I might change my mind.
Colin Clive was first called BARON Frankenstein in Bride of Frankenstein, while Peter Cushing was called Baron in five Hammer films.
