Sybelle is a twenty-five year old American who is a talented classical pianist. She and her friend Benji find Armand after he is badly burned from exposing himself to the sun after he attempts suicide after seeing Veronica's Veil when Lestat returns from his journey in Memnoch the Devil. They help Armand recover by bringing him evil-doers to feed from. When the abuse culminates to Sybelle's brother about to kill her, Armand, who by then is much recovered, kills him, thus freeing Sybelle and Benji from further fear for their lives.
