I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

This could be a double definition.

'mole' is the first definition.
Both the definition and answer are singular nouns.
Maybe you can see a link between them that I can't see?

'decapitation of emperor?' is the second definition.
The definition suggests a singular noun which matches the answer.

'responsible for' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for adrian that I've seen before include "Name of six Popes" , "Boy's name" , "The first and only English Pope" , "Man's name" , "Name of Roman emperor and only English pope" .)
