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 role of Marius has been played by many actors some stand outs include: In the original London cast Marius was played by Michael Ball In the 10th anniversary special Ball revised the role In the 25th anniversary special he was played by Nick Jonas In the 2012 movie Marius was played by Eddie Redmayne

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Julius_Caesar#Early_life Caesar's uncle Marius was a popularis; Marius' protégé and rival Lucius Cornelius Sulla was an optimas. Both Marius and Sulla distinguished themselves in the Social War, and both wanted command of the war against Mithridates, which was initially given to Sulla; but when Sulla left the city to take command of his army, a tribune passed a law transferring the appointment to Marius. Sulla responded by marching on Rome, reclaiming his command and forcing Marius into exile, but when he left on campaign Marius returned at the head of a makeshift army. He and his ally Lucius Cornelius Cinna seized the city and declared Sulla a public enemy, and Marius's troops took violent revenge on Sulla's supporters. Marius died early in 86 BC, but his faction remained in power.[11] In 85 BC Caesar's father died suddenly while putting on his shoes one morning, without any apparent cause,[12] and at sixteen, Caesar was the head of the family. The following year he was nominated to be the new Flamen Dialis, high priest of Jupiter, as Merula, the previous incumbent, had died in Marius's purges.[13] Since the holder of that position not only had to be a patrician but also be married to a patrician, he broke off his engagement to Cossutia, a girl of wealthy equestrian family he had been betrothed to since boyhood, and married Cinna's daughter Cornelia.[14] Then, having brought Mithridates to terms, Sulla returned to finish the civil war against Marius' followers. After a campaign throughout Italy he seized Rome at the Battle of the Colline Gate in November 82 BC and had himself appointed to the revived office of dictator; but whereas a dictator was traditionally appointed for six months at a time, Sulla's appointment had no term limit. Statues of Marius were destroyed and Marius' body was exhumed and thrown in the Tiber. Cinna was already dead, killed by his own soldiers in a mutiny.[15] Sulla's proscriptions saw hundreds of his political enemies killed or exiled. Caesar, as the nephew of Marius and son-in-law of Cinna, was targeted. He was stripped of his inheritance, his wife's dowry and his priesthood, but refused to divorce Cornelia and was forced to go into hiding.

If you mean Marius in Anne Rice's Vampire Chronicles, no.
Magnus turned Lestat into a vampire though it is not mentioned in the Interview with the Vampire book nor movie, but the name and story comes up in The Vampire Lestat book. In Queen of the Damned film they said that Marius created Lestat but this is indeed incorrect.
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.
Jean Valjean goes to the barricades to protect Marius and ensure his safety because Marius is the beloved of his adopted daughter, Cosette. He risks his own life to help Marius escape and to save him from the impending danger at the barricades.
There is not an American Marius. No American politician engaged in civil wars twice. Abraham Lincoln cannot be compared because Marius did not challenge slavery in Rome. What can be said is that Marius was a progressive and therefore was similar to a liberal.
Marius thinks girls look at him in this part of the novel because Marius himself is dressed not richly, for lack of better words, not in rich clothing. He thinks the girls look at him because he looks poor. In fact, the girls really look at him because he is handsome and has 'pretty' features. They all admire him, but Marius thinks he looks poor, with his clothing full of holes. Hope this helps. (k)
because he was stupid
