Mikhail Faustin

Mikhail Faustin is a Russian mobster who is the don of his own family in Grand Theft Auto IV. He was a long time friend of Eric Borlinghathen. After Niko Bellic killed Vladimir Papkov, his Russian mob family kidnapped him and his cousin, Roman Bellic. Niko was then hired to do the Russian mafia's dirty work. He even hired Niko to kill Jason Michaels as he was dating his daughter Anna. Mikhail also liked to snort cocaine a lot and bossed around his wife Ilyena. Eric Borlinghathen later on wanted Niko to kill Mikhail. However, little did Niko know upon killing Mikhail, Eric was the true traitor. In KGBSpetsnaz's opinion, Mikhail Faustin is a good guy/bad guy as he did thank Niko for doing his dirty work and still paid him decently. Also, he is quite similar to Dwayne Forge in KGBSpetsnaz's opinion as both of them are gang leaders who didn't have that many people remaining loyal to them. KGBSpetsnaz also thinks that there should've been an option to either kill Eric or kill Mikhail, and there being a lot of buildup making Vance Borlinghathen the game's main antagonist.
