Who is that little boy that hangs around Armand? That little boy Louis bites on the hand.

That’s Denis. He’s Armand’s pet. We don’t know much about him.

3 things about this bite:

1. After watching the gruesome performance at the Theatre, Louis and Claudia are both pretty hungry. Seems like a courtesy offering to a vampire, like you might offer someone water or soda or whatever when they’re a guest in your house. In the book, Claudia gets a bite of Denis, too.

2. Seems like a trust-building exercise. All the vampires in the Theatre are watching him, and we’ve seen how easy it is to poison a vampire. Louis accepting this offering is a show of good faith, trusting them that they’re not poisoning him right then.

3. Killing/drinking blood is a very sensual experience for vampires, Louis describes sex as “the pale shadow of killing.” Makes sense then, that Louis does not like to be watched doing it. Also, he’s usually unable to stop himself from killing his victims. Armand’s mind gift is very strong, and he’s enjoying this whole moment on a deeper level.

We know that Denis is fiercely devoted to Armand, he even drives the getaway carriage for him and Louis after Louis serves his revenge at the Theatre des Vampires, en flambé, of course.

Dressed up like a vampire from Interview with the Vampire

Could you give me a little help? I can never remember the difference between the VC characters Santiago and Santino. Are they even different characters or are they the same and I just imagined one of them? Sorry for asking but I don’t have time to skim the books and thought you would know :)

I used to get them mixed up early on, too. They’re VERY different. And yet similar. (also I don’t think they’re ever in the same place together in the series, which is neither here nor there, but whatever) This is Santiago, we meet him in IWTV:

[memeything by ouija—bored]

Santiago is a BAMF, and he’s Armand’s right-hand man at the Theatre des Vampires, also an actor there, usually plays the narrator or character of “Death” in their gruesome stage performances. Santiago does NOT like Louis from the moment they meet. Santiago can sense weakness in Louis, and Santiago is also suspicious of Claudia just for her existence; it’s against the rules to make child vampires. Santiago is not gonna let that slide. 

Santino is a BAMF, too. We meet him in TVL, he trains Armand to become the coven master of the Children of Darkness, eventually helming the Scranton Paris branch in the cemetery of Les Innocents. More on him in TVA and B&G, which I have not memorized yet. Santino is the leader of a coven of Satanic vampires, the members of which hold a common belief that they are meant to be the scourge of humankind. I can’t say more without spoiling you, so go to Wiki for more.


You can also ask a Santino RPer! vampirexsantino would probably answer more. He’s the only active Santino I know of rn, and I don’t know any active Santiagos. vampiresantiago is inactive, but you might like perusing their archive.
