Armand was no more than a boy when he was made by Marius. He had been the mortal companion of Marius for many years before he was finally made, but finally, the pair were attacked and the deed could be put off no longer.
Believing Marius to be dead, Armand fled to Paris where he became leader of his own coven, though none of the group were his children, having sworn that he would never use the Dark Trick.

In Paris, he encountered the newly born Lestat, whom he immediately fell into a love/hate relationship with.

Later he moved to the Theatre des Vampires, having been encouraged to abandon the crypts and to make the most of his imortality, by Lestat.

Daniel-The devil's Minion

The temptation of Armadeo

Armand's Music Room

Daniel was the interviewer of "Interview With the Vampire" fame.
Following his introduction to the world of the vampires courtesy of Louis, he became a friend of Armand's, later being made a vampire by him when his human life was in danger due to ill health brought on by alcoholism and living rough in an attempt to escapre Armand and the hold he had over Daniel.

He is reckless and cheerful, and is constantly enthralled and ammused by what he has become. His experiences drove him half crazy before he finally allowed himself to be transformed, and he carries this insanity with him into the World of Darkness.

His character is wonderfully innocent. He feels no fear, or paranoia, and has no guilt about the need to kill. After a miserable mortality he is experiencing all that immortality has to offer him and enjoying it to the best of his ability.
