Vivamus:
Here are all uses of the word "king" in all five books:

Loads of references to King's Cross station

Chess kings.  In PS/SS, "The white king took off his crown and threw it at
Harry's feet."

CoS: The Basilisk is the King of Serpents

OOtP: Weasley Is Our King, in three variants.  First, by the Slytherins,
then "Luna, on the other hand, sang 'Weasley is our King' dreamily under her
breath and stirred her drink with a cocktail onion on a stick," and,
finally, the Gryffindors singing what is almost certainly Luna's rewritten
version.

Also a passing reference to NHNick singing something that sounded "horribly
like Weasley is our King", several references to Ron by Malfoy as "Weasel
King" and a reference to Weasley is our King by Ginny when they are planning
how to get into Umbridge's office.

And that's it.





Would Aragog be considered a king?  What about the giants?  Centaurs?  How are the goblins lead?  I personally do not think that the HBP is a creature.  (maybe a half creature?)
