Lestat De Lioncourt
His human father's name is not known. The one who made him a vampire, and so becamce his "father" as a vampire, is named Magnus. Later on in his vampire life, Lestat meets a vampire named Marius, who becomes his mentor and a vampiric "father" that Magnus refused to be, as well as Lestat's father-figure in a very human nature, as in, to be the loving and dedicated dad which Lestat's human father never was.
Magnus created Lestat then killed himself and left Lestat to figure out what had happened. Some time after Magnus made Lestat and commited suicide, the vampire Armand and Lestat's paths cross and Lestat learns from Armand about the ancient vampire Marius, who everyone believes to be dead but Lestat won't believe it but becomes obsessed with his search for Marius. He seeks Marius out to get a teacher who Magnus refused to be to him. About 9 years pass until finally Marius, who indeed is alive, comes to Lestat and becomes his mentor, friend and a father-figure. We first meet Marius through Lestat's eyes in the book "The Vampire Lestat". The film "Queen of the Damned" (2002) had Marius as Lestat's maker in order to save minutes - according to the commentary track on the DVD - but that's not all they did, they also changed Marius's personality drastically... so, they just messed it all up, majorly.
The character Lestat de Lioncourt's birthday is on November 7th. He is a fictional character created by Anne Rice in her "The Vampire Chronicles" series.
