Mikhail Faustin (Russian: Михаил Фаустин) is a character in the Grand Theft Auto series who appears as a main character and the senary antagonist in Grand Theft Auto IV. He is also mentioned, though not by name, in The Lost and Damned. He was the founder and the Pakhan of the Faustin Bratva. Faustin was renowned for his very short temper, which was most probably caused by alcohol and cocaine abuse. He gradually became extremely violent and worryingly murderous, which led to him making decisions that caused his closest friend orchestrating his execution.
