Born around BC30, Marius De Romanus grew up an illegitimate son in a rich Roman household. By age twenty, he had become a scholar and chronicler. In his fortieth year, he was writing a history of the world that had taken him on a journey through all the great cities of the Empire. In the Roman Gallic city of Massilia, a Druid knocked him out and took him to an enclave of the ancient Keltoi. The Druid's believed he was an extraordinary human being and wanted him to become their new god. The Druid priest (the mortal Mael) tells him that he will be taken to the sacred grove where he will drink the Divine Blood and become a father of gods. Mael teaches Marius about customs of the Druids, preparing him for the night of the Samhain, when he would become their new god.
Marius is taken to an oak grove where the Druid Vampire (God of the Grove — burnt badly when Akasha and Enkil were put into the sun) tells Marius lessons of the vampires. He urges Marius to escape the Druid's and go to Egypt to find the answer as to why vampires were burnt or destroyed the world over. The Druid Vampire makes Marius a vampire, exchanging blood with Marius several times to ensure his strength.
Marius escapes the Druid's and goes to Alexandria, where a blackened figure appears to him. Marius is lead to the Elder, an ancient Egyptian vampire who is the guardian of Akasha and Enkil. The Elder tells Marius why vampires were burnt and destroyed, and how the Mother and Father (Akasha and Enkil) became the first of their kind. Five nights after seeing the Elder, a magnificent bronze-skinned Egyptian woman, who spoke only these words before vanishing, visits Marius: 'Marius, take us out of Egypt'. The woman was Akasha.
Marius is led to an underground chamber where the Mother and Father are kept safe. He learns that the Elder was the one who put Akasha and Enkil in the sun, seeking to destroy them. Marius takes Akasha and Enkil from their chamber. When the Elder discovers Marius' intentions, he attacks Marius. Akasha then destroys the Elder, crushing his entire body beneath her feet. Following this, Akasha allowed Marius to drink from her.
From Alexandria, Marius takes Akasha and Enkil to Antioch. Here, Marius falls madly in love with a beautiful Greek courtesan named Pandora — Marius had previously met Pandora fifteen years earlier through Pandora's father. Pandora enchanted and dazzled Marius.
Marius gives Pandora immortal life after a vampire, named Akbar, attacks Pandora in his attempts to see and drink from the ancient couple, Akasha and Enkil. For two hundred years, Marius lived and fought and loved with Pandora. Feuds, however, eventually drive Marius and Pandora apart. They did not meet again until a single precious night, in Dresden, in the late 1600s.
In the fifteenth century, Marius buys the mortal child Armand from a brothel in Constantinople. Marius, an avid painter living in Venice in the company of many mortal children, teaches Armand to read and write. An English Lord attacks Armand and Marius gives his mortal child immortal life.
Six months later, a satanic coven of vampires, led by Santino, takes Marius' mortal children (as well as the immortal Armand) from him for being servants of a pagan. The vampires set Marius alight, but Marius manages to escape to his island hideaway where Akasha and Enkil are kept. Marius did not see Armand again until 1985 in Sonoma.
Years later, a vampire named Lestat comes in search of Marius. Marius revives Lestat from his underground stupor, and takes him to his Greek island hideaway. Marius tells Lestat about the origins of the vampire race, the Mother and Father, Akasha and Enkil, who sit as statues in a tomb on Marius' island. Marius is later forced to send Lestat away after Lestat bravely drinks from Akasha, stirring the ancient couple.
In the twentieth century, when Lestat rises from another underground stupor and becomes a rock star, Marius plays Lestat's music videos for Akasha and Enkil. In the morning prior to Lestat's concert, Marius checks on Akasha and Enkil, only to discover Akasha missing and Enkil an empty husk, the last drop of life drawn out of him. Marius then realises that Akasha must harbour the primal power and it was she who did this to Enkil. Akasha re-enters the shrine and begins to mock Marius, speaking to him the words he himself had spoken to people that morning.
Akasha then destroys the shrine, with Marius inside. Marius becomes trapped in a giant crevasse, buried in ice, bones of his arms, legs and face crushed. This is when Marius calls out to Lestat, warning him of danger.
Pandora (learning of Marius' dilemma from the doomed Azim) seeks out Marius with the help of Santino. Marius joins those vampires who stand against Akasha and he later makes Armand's mortal children, Sybelle and Benji, vampires.
