Although glory but not at my best. Power will fall to me finally, when the man who made me is dead. What am I?

Common Wrong Answers

A king

A king is typically at the height of power and glory, which contradicts the riddle's hint about not being at their best.

A president

While a president holds power, the riddle specifically refers to a succession that occurs only after the death of the person who made them, which doesn't apply to elected positions like a president.

A knight

A knight is often associated with glory and honor in battle, but does not relate to the concept of succession in power after someone's death, as implied by the riddle.
