Mikhail is forty five years old and formerly of the U.S.S.R., where he served during the Cold War along with his friend [[Dimitri Rascalov]]. The two then spent time in a prison camp in harsh, snowy Siberia. Mikhail would often remind Dimitri of the time spent there to guilt him into following orders. In the mission [[The Master and the Molotov]], he claimed that without his help, Dimitri would have been "the prison bitch of some gym monkey". Eventually, the duo made it to America, and Mikhail brought his family; his wife [[Ilyena Faustin|Ilyena]] and daughter [[Anna Faustin|Anna]]. He is very short-tempered and violent with both of them and is screaming at his wife at all times that [[Niko]] sees them together.

Although Ilyena says Mikhail was once "beautiful", he has become very short-tempered and violent with her and their daughter -- he is shown screaming abuse at his wife whenever [[Niko]] sees them together, and doesn't hesitate to take out a hit on his daughter's biker boyfriend.

Mikhail Faustin controls a large family of Russian mobsters, and he is known for being the most powerful gangster in Broker. However, his demeanor is very poor, as he abuses cocaine and alcohol regularly. He is controlling and angry, showing self-destructive tendencies. He heeds none of Dimitri's advice, who is his second-in-command and the more reasonable of the two. Mikhail also has a violent streak, which leads to the murders of [[Andrei Utraniyev]], [[Lenny Petrovic]], and [[Jason Michaels]], a pimp in the [[Lost Brotherhood]] biker gang. This streak makes him a danger to the rest of the Russian families in the city. Faustin meets [[Niko Bellic]] after the man executes a low-level employee in Faustin's employ, [[Vladimir Glebov]]. Instead of killing Niko, Mikhail offers him some work.
Mikhail Faustin controls a large family of Russian mobsters, and he is known for being the most powerful gangster in Broker. Cocaine and alcohol abuse, however, have degraded his business sense, and he has become paranoid, intensely controlling and angry. This has given him a violent streak, which leads to the murders of [[Andrei Utraniyev]], [[Lenny Petrovic]], and [[Jason Michaels]], the latter a member of the [[Lost Brotherhood]] biker gang. Faustin meets [[Niko Bellic]] after Niko kills a low-level employee in Faustin's employ, [[Vladimir Glebov]]. Rather than killing Niko in turn, Mikhail offers him some work, including the assassination of Lenny Petrovic on a spurious suspicion of betrayal.


The murder of Lenny Petrovic violates a peace treaty between Faustin and the most powerful Russian in the city, [[Konstantin Petrovic|Kenny Petrovic]]. Petrovic puts contracts out on the heads of Mikhail, Dimitri, and the assassin, [[Niko Bellic|Niko]]. Determined to make peace, Dimitri betrays Mikhail and sends Niko to [[Perestroika]] to assassinate him, as a peace offering to the Petrovics. Faustin flees to the roof of the club, but Niko gives chase, and kills him as promised.

Mikhail has several tattoos, a Russian Mafia staple. Both he and Dimitri have a tattoo on the palm of their hands as well, which means "brothers for life" according to Mikhail.
He owns a [[Turismo]] (no fixed colour) which can be stolen from the driveway of his house, and is seen driving a custom black [[Schafter]] at the beginning of the mission [[The Master and the Molotov]].  Mikhail has several tattoos, a Russian Mafia staple; both he and Dimitri have tattoos on the palms of their hands which represent that they are "brothers for life", according to Mikhail.
