The Kingslayer	comment	A character, for one reason or another, assassinates the King, the Emperor, the President, that one powerful guy whose position has massive mystique and glamor and charisma attached to it, no matter how badly they chose to use it. Usually the one to kill him is of the Praetorian Guard or someone equally close and trusted. However, it doesn't need to be a betrayal: it could perfectly well be an absolutely lawful execution after a fair trial. It won't matter to the people. They have slain a King. The reason why killing a monarch has always been such a big deal is twofold: one aspect of it is that before the rise of nationalism, the monarch was the carrier of the state's sovereignty (afterwards, it was the people through the social contract). In simpler terms, the monarch was their country, so anyone attacking them automatically set themself against all the state institutions. Likewise, any revolution against the King was effectively de-legitimizing all the institutions (Church, Army, Titles) that had formerly depended on royal patronage, or which had legitimized royalty before. Kings who ruled by Divine Right were likewise considered to be ruling with God's approval—and anyone attacking an anointed monarch automatically infringed upon God's prerogative of deciding who is a suitable ruler and who should go. This is especially the case in nations like England and Russia, where royalty was part of the Church hierarchy as a whole. However, there were some theoreticians who allowed Tyrannicide. Additionally, monarchs had very good reason to disapprove of regicide, even towards rival monarchs, since they obviously wanted to discourage any thoughts of disposing of monarchs in general. This is one reason why killing a president (while a serious crime and probably high treason — as is the murder of any high-ranking state official) does not pack the same punch in modern days, even if some Presidents have become glorified into King-like figures. However, because attacking the person and office of the King is essentially an action against the state, people in modern societies are not too keen on stories about attacking royalty either, even more so when royalty is brought to trial, since that would imply that any and every head-of-state and their respective governments can be brought to trial. A precedent which even the most advanced democracies are rarely interested in putting into practice or enforcing for a variety of reasons. Expect them to never be allowed to forget it, and carry this moniker or a variation thereof for all their lives, if they don't get executed for it. In some instances this is an attempt to get a Klingon Promotion, possibly involving The Coup. May overlap with Hero Killer. Someone aiming to Kill the God is not satisfied with mere mortal monarchs, though the tropes may overlap if they target divine monarchs. This trope also usually doesn't apply to killing a King in battle. In this situation, the character is not the Kingslayer, but rather The Usurper (if they get Historical Villain Upgrade) and The Conqueror (if they get Historical Hero Upgrade). This is because there is a sense that defeat in battle and in combat is considered "fair play" as opposed to killing a King by assassination, or even by trial and legal execution. As this is a Death Trope, unmarked spoilers abound. Beware. Examples

The Kingslayer / int_14d341dc	comment	Star Trek Online: Chancellor J'mpok of the Klingon Empire attained his current post by killing Chancellor Martok under questionable circumstances in 2393. To wit, the two went into a closed-door meeting to try and avert a civil war in the Empire after a long power struggle between the pro-Federation moderates led by the House of Martok and the traditionalist Klingon hardliners under J'mpok. Three hours later J'mpok emerged saying Martok was dead and that he was now chancellor. This did absolutely nothing to end the power struggle: J'mpok's supporters naturally claim that he killed Martok in honorable combat, but Martok's widow Sirella has sworn revenge. Years later, the truth was ultimately revealed - J'mpok did kill Martok in honorable combat, but Torg of House Torg hijacked his body, revived him and tortured him. When Martok came back to the Empire, he decided to let J'mpok keep the position because he really didn't want it back.

And if the victim was a relative and you get caught you gain the Kinslayer trait that permanently lowers your Diplomacy rating by 3. The sequel gives you a unique sobriquet (defaulting to "the Kingslayer", probably as an ASOIAF Shout-Out) if you execute your own king or emperor rank liege.

This backfired, resulting in Elizabeth openly hating Haven. Haven's next attempt to annex Manticore, during the main series, is a straight-up invasion and a miserable failure. At the end of The Short Victorious War the Citizens' Rights Union led by Robert Pierre executes a coup d'etat against the government of Haven, killing Hereditary President Harris and most of his family with an airstrike at the outset and taking out the rest of the Legislaturalist class in the following purges. They then frame the People's Navy for the whole shebang as having attempted a Military Coup.

Kalf is subsequently one of Magnus' closest advisors; however their relationship deteriorates until Magnus forces Kalf to visit the battlefield of Stiklestad with him and tell him how his father Olaf died. From Kalf's account of the scene, Magnus realizes that Kalf witnessed Olaf's death up close and takes this as evidence that Kalf himself has given Olaf the deadly wound. Kalf denies it, but fearing Magnus' anger he leaves Norway to live in exile. Years later, Magnus' successor Harald (Olaf's half-brother) allows Kalf to return on the condition that Kalf must join Harald's war expeditions; soon after, Kalf is killed in battle with the Danes under circumstances that suggest Harald was trying to get him killed.

Skyrim is fiercely divided on whether this was a lawful duel for the High King's throne in the old way (as Ulfric and those under his banner see it) or a murder and usurpation of the throne due to Ulfric's use of the Thu'um against Torygg (as the Empire sees it).

She had actually formed a bond of trust between them but due to magical controls placed on her mind, when the Shadow Council directed her to kill the king, she had no choice. Warcraft III's human campaign ends with Arthas, post-Faceâ€“Heel Turn, murdering his father, the king of Lordaeron, to cement the Undead Scourge's takeover of that part of Azeroth. "Kingslayer" is a title which can be earned in World of Warcraft for killing the Lich King.

She's then successfully assassinated in The Fall: Revelation and Dust at the new Deep Space 9's opening ceremony. The Tzenkethi are initially fingered (like the Breen, they're members of the rival alliance the Typhon Pact), but in fact it was done by the True Way (a Cardassian terrorist group) with the connivance of Councillor Ishan Anjar of Bajor who was trying to bring about a more militaristic Federation regime (ironically to protect Bajor from the Cardassians).

The Wolf asks if it was through poison or paid assassins, then counters that this puts him in the company of an old woman (Olenna Tyrell, who had Joffrey poisoned), a one-armed man (Jaime, who killed Aerys the Mad), and a pig (the boar that killed Robert Baratheon).

In the night after the first (indecisive) battle, PalnatÃ³ki sneaks near Harald's camp and kills him with a well-aimed arrow. With Harald dead, his troops submit to Svein, and Svein is made king. As king, Svein hosts a remembrance feast for his father at which he presents the arrow which killed Harald and interrogates all guests about what they know about Harald's murder. PalnatÃ³ki bluntly admits that he killed Harald, upon which Svein at once (even though he owes his kingship to him) wants him killed. PalnatÃ³ki and his men can escape from the hall, but go into exile and never return to Denmark.

The Kingslayer / int_9d34190a	comment	The Elder Scrolls: The Elder Scrolls In-Universe Books: The In-Game Novel 2920: The Last Year of the First Era, Loosely Based On An In-Universe True Story, ends with the assassination of Emperor Reman Cyrodiil III by the sister of his ex-mistress, in revenge for her unjust execution for treason. This happens with the backing of the Dunmer assassins' guild, the Morag Tong, with the tacit support of the Akaviri ambassador who then takes over rulership of the Empire as Potentate. A few hundred years later, the Colovian King Cuhlecain, with the aid of his Dragonborn General Talos, had re-captured the Imperial City and was preparing to take the throne as Emperor, the first since the death of Reman III. However, a Nightblade from High Rock assassinated Cuhlecain and attempted to assassinate Talos, slashing his throat (which prevented him from using the Thu'um ever again.) Talos survived and would be crowned Emperor in Cuhlecain's place, taking the name Tiber Septim. (At least, that's the story according to Imperial orthodox history. More "heretical" stories say that Talos had a hand in the assassination, and may have even murdered Cuhlecain himself in order to usurp the throne.) In Oblivion, the main antagonists are the Mythic Dawn Apocalypse Cult, who become notorious in the opening for successfully assassinating Emperor Uriel Septim VII, along with his three publicly known sons, as part of their plan to allow a Daedric Prince to invade Nirn. This notoriety lasts for hundreds of years (as you find out if you do a particular sidequest in Skyrim). During the 200 year Time Skip between Oblivion and Skyrim, the Thalmor assassinate Potentate Ocato (who served the latter Septim Emperors as High Chancellor and Imperial Battlemage) as part of their grand scheme to destabilize the Empire. It works, as no other ruler is able to hold the crumbling Septim Empire together again. The Thalmor, now the leaders of the Altmeri government, secede from the Empire, annex Valenwood, and re-form the Aldmeri Dominion of old. Skyrim: Just prior to the events of the game, Jarl Ulfric Stormcloak set off the Civil War by killing Torygg, the High King of Skyrim. Skyrim is fiercely divided on whether this was a lawful duel for the High King's throne in the old way (as Ulfric and those under his banner see it) or a murder and usurpation of the throne due to Ulfric's use of the Thu'um against Torygg (as the Empire sees it).

The Kingslayer / int_9d47a2a2	comment	A Song of Ice and Fire is a fantasy epic about the game of thrones, which (as Cersei Lannister puts it) "you win or you die." It's also a series where Anyone Can Die. Consequently, there are quite a number of regicides running around: Jaime Lannister's In-Series Nickname is "The Kingslayer". In the backstory, he killed the arguably evil, and unarguably mad, King Aerys II Targaryen. In doing so, he ended a massive Civil War and saved over half a million lives, as the Mad King had hatched a Taking You with Me plot that was intended to burn the entire capital city to the ground. That being said, he was also a member of the king's Praetorian Guard — and, more importantly, only one other character (and the audience) have ever actually learned his motivations. As a result, he is reviled throughout Westeros as The Oathbreaker, Once Done, Never Forgotten; plus, he's also a scion of the arriviste Lannister family that the rebels saw as "Johnny come latelies" who parlayed their opportunistic actions to grab royal favor. And, of course, he's engaging in Twincest and, when a child found out about it, he threw that child out a window. In short, he is seen by many as a disagreeable Karma Houdini who should at the very least be Reassigned to Antarctica rather than continue his career as a royal bodyguard. A big part of his Character Arc is deciding to show the world — not by self-serving excuses, but by word and deed — that he is more than an opportunist. Brienne undergoes similar prejudice when she is thought to have killed Renly Baratheon, having been found in his tent with him just after he dies. In reality he was murdered by a shadow assassin conjured by a witch who was in league with Renly's brother Stannis Baratheon, though as Stannis had more right to the Iron Throne, and Renly was clearly The Usurper and intended to kill Stannis that day this doesn't seem so great a crime. Later Renly's secret lover Ser Loras Tyrell meets Brienne and demanded she be punished for Renly's death, even though the Tyrells are currently allied with the Lannister regime, which Renly intended to overthrow. Stannis may be considered partially guilty of the deaths of all the other four Kings in the War of the Five Kings, though from his perspective they are all usurpers. After his defeat at the Blackwater, with the assistance of the Red Witch Melisandre, Stannis uses three leeches filled with King's Blood thrown onto a brazier to curse Joffrey Baratheon, Balon Greyjoy, and Robb Stark. All three of them die shortly after this curse. Balon Greyjoy apparently dies when he falls of a bridge during a storm. However, shortly after his death, Balon's villainous brother Euron "Crow's Eye" Greyjoy returns to the Iron Isles and takes control of them. A vision by the Ghost of High Heart implies that a Faceless Man was hired by Euron to perform the deed. The apparent assassin was a member of an organization who specialize in deaths that look like accidents. Lord Roose Bolton murders his King Robb Stark during The Red Wedding, which he planned with Lord Walder Frey. Following this assassination, the Boltons take control of the North. At his wedding to Margaery Tyrell, Joffrey Baratheon is poisoned by his grandmother-in-law Olenna Tyrell, as she fears his cruelty towards her granddaughter. A reread of the positioning during the wedding, indicated that one of Margaery's brothers, Garlan Tyrell, may have carried out the poisoning. Joffrey's uncle Tyrion Lannister is blamed for the murder and eventually convicted, but escapes Westeros before the sentence can be carried out. Queen Cersei Lannister is the mastermind behind the death of her husband, King Robert Baratheon. She let her cousin, Lancel, give more potent drink to Robert, which got him killed by a boar during their hunting trip. Later on, Lancel wasn't proud for what he had done and took a Heelâ€“Faith Turn which got Cersei exposed for adultery and murder by the Church Militant. There have been numerous historical examples: When Aegon and his sisters conquered Westeros, they also killed the kings who ruled over the Reach (Mern IX Gardener), the Iron Islands and the Riverlands (Harren Hoare), and the Stormlands (Argilac Durrandon). Loren I Lannister of the Westerlands, Torrhen Stark of the North, and Sharra Arryn of the Vale chose to bend the knee, and as a result their houses were spared and allowed to rule as vassals in Aegon's new realm, the Seven Kingdoms. Queen Visenya might have poisoned her nephew and stepson, Aenys I, to make way for her son, Maegor, to ascend to the Iron Throne. While the rumor is unconfirmed, Visenya did provide major backing for Maegor while she was alive, to the point that his reign began to fall apart after she died. Maegor himself was found dead in the Red Keep's throne room during the rebellion led by his nephew Jaehaerys, his neck impaled by one of the spikes of the Iron Throne. To this day, nobody knows how it happened, and theories ranging from his wife Elinor Costayne (whose first husband was killed by Maegor's forces) to a member of the Kingsguard to a random smallfolk who desired revenge against the king being possible suspects. Ominously, some even believe that the Iron Throne itself killed Maegor, having decided that he was unworthy of the crown. Aegon II, who ruled during the civil war known as the Dance of the Dragons, ended up on both sides of this. He executed his rival and half-sister, Queen Rhaenyra, via his dragon Sunfyre. Six months later, he was poisoned by his own supporters as Cregan Stark approached the city with his army. Even though Cregan was fighting against Aegon II, he still felt a King's murder should be punished. He arrested many of those present, sending most of them to the Wall, executing those who refused to take the Black, but pardoning Corlys Velaryon under political pressure. Who exactly poisoned Aegon is still unclear, but the orchestrator of the plot, Larys Strong, was among those executed. Daeron I was assassinated during an expedition to conquer Dorne, being ambushed by a bunch of Dornishmen whom he convened for a peace meeting. Baelor the Beloved could have been poisoned by his uncle Viserys II, who was the next King, but may have acted as he had been running the realm efficiently for years and Baelor's pious policies threatened this (some believe Baelor wished to invade the North and the Iron Islands to convert them to the Faith of the Seven by force). However many people believe Baelor died from his excessive fasting. Ironically, it was rumored that Viserys II, who died a year after Baelor I, was poisoned by his son Aegon IV "The Unworthy". Maekar I was crushed to death by a boulder while quelling the Peake Uprising in the Reach.

The Kingslayer / int_9e2f90f4	comment	One Piece: Capone Bege gets a kick out of killing leaders. He began with gang leaders and moved up to world leaders once he gained power and influence. He has no aspiration to take their power, however. He just likes to off the person in charge because he likes watching the violence ensue as people fight for the throne. From what little we get to see about the God Valley Incident, we learn that God Valley's king was callously murdered by Saint Figarland Garling of the Holy Knights for protesting the World Nobles' Native Hunting Competition that was about to take place in his country. Because Garling murdered him before the game even started, he was given a point penalty; Garling merely took this as a challenge to actually put effort into the competition, showcasing how little the act meant to him.

But Regicide is fairly common on that planet with most Emperors only lasting a week until they're killed, often by being drunk, half were drunk at their coronations and someone even tries drinking Fry. It turns out the Emperor is still alive inside Fry, almost getting Fry killed when he orders his people to let him out. Finally Fry is able to cry the Emperor out.

He told the king he had a secret message, so the king told his attendants to leave the two of them alone. Once they'd left the room, Ehud stabbed Eglon, locked the doors and snuck out. A nameless Amelekite tells David that he has killed King Saul (at Saul's own request, no less). *It's ambiguous whether he actually did the deed or if he was embellishing the story: at the end of 1 Samuel we're told Saul fell on his own sword Since Saul had been trying to kill David, the Amelekite clearly expects to be rewarded for this. Instead, David has him executed for daring to kill God's anointed king. Nadab, second king of Samaria, was killed by a military officer named Baasha. Jehu managed a two-for-one, killing king Jehoram of Samaria and mortally wounding king Ahaziah of Judah while they were in talks.

The Kingslayer / int_b30ae4db	comment	Game of Thrones, the HBO Adaptation of A Song of Ice and Fire above, not only outpaced the books eventually, but added a few twists of its own: Unlike in the books which was rumored that a Faceless Man, sent by Euron, killed his brother and the king of the Iron Islands, Balon Greyjoy, Euron is the one who kills him personally by pushing him off the bridge at Pyke during a rainy day. In the Season 6 finale, Cersei Lannister blows the Sept of Baelor, killing Queen Maegery Tyrell and her brother and father. She also indirectly responsible for the death of her son, King Tommen Baratheon, who jumps off the Red Keep after learning of his wife's demise. In the series finale, Jon Snow kills Queen Daenerys Targaryen after he realizes that she is already Jumping Off the Slippery Slope. This action leads Grey Worm and the Unsullied to arrest him, culminating for the newly appointed King Bran Stark to send Jon into exile at the far North.

In Season 4 Londo Mollari conspires with G'Kar and several members of the Centauri court to assassinate the insane Emperor Cartagia. In the end it's his aide Vir Cotto who delivers the killing blow in "Into the Fire"; he feels considerable anguish about it afterwards. Later, when it looks like the Vorlons are going to destroy Centauri Prime because the emperor-in-waiting, Londo, was a former associate of the Shadows, Londo tries to convince Vir to kill him, but the Vorlon planet killer is recalled to join the battle with the Alliance at Coriana VI in the nick of time. In a Bad Future seen in "War Without End", Emperor Londo arranges to have G'Kar kill him to free the Centauri Republic of the Drakh keeper controlling his actions. Londo has drunk enough alcohol to put the keeper into as stupor for this, but it wakes up partway through and strangles G'Kar in a Mutual Kill. This is also implied to have happened in the prime timeline during the Time Skip between season 5 and the Distant Finale "Sleeping in Light", as Vir has succeeded Londo as Emperor by that time. President Clark and Mr. Morden both participated in the death of President Santiago, who dies when EarthForce One explodes. The proof came from a transmission that Ivanova managed to capture with the Great Machine. Only Clark is seen, commenting how he's wanted Santiago dead for a long time, but Morden's voice is heard assuring him that EarthForce One will not return and that the power is now Clark's.
