Background:
The "Wedding Assassin" was an unidentified member of the Faustin Mafia, acting as the personal bodyguard of Mikhail Faustin and later a hitman for Dimitri Rascalov.
He is voiced by Jacek Krawczyk.
He first appears during the intro cutscene of "No Love Lost"; when Niko Bellic entered Faustin's house for an assignment, he was taken aside in the living room by Faustin's bodyguard to wait while the boss argued with his wife about their daughter. The furious Faustin then rambled to his bodyguard and Niko about his daughter's rebellious nature, then ordering Niko to locate her and kill her boyfriend. He also asked his bodyguard where Dimitri was, to which he responded "He's busy, er... he said he had something to do.". After Niko left, Faustin ordered his bodyguard to go find Dimitri and have him call him.
The character is never seen nor mentioned again after "No Love Lost" if the player chose the Revenge ending, suggesting that he may have survived the events of the game. He only reappears in the Deal storyline.
In the Deal ending, the assassin appeared at Roman's wedding, on the orders of Dimitri, and tried to kill Niko, who shot and killed him with his own gun. Unfortunately, during the struggle, the assassin fired a stray shot that killed Roman Bellic. Discovering his cousin to be dead, Niko angrily unloaded the gun into its owner's corpse and savagely kicked assassin's body before Little Jacob calmed him down.
The Wedding Assassin appears to be inspired by Agent 47 from the Hitman series, as both of them are bald Caucasian contract killers who wear suits.

Description:
That wedding scene was honestly frightening. I'm so glad they put an alternative outcome for it as I accidently got Roman killed by this guy in my first ever playthrough. I was devastated and this dude really made me so mad at the time lol. Same went for Niko of course as he unloaded a full clip into this dude for killing Roman, as he should have!
He has his original textures from IV that have been upscaled using an app called Upscayl. This was mentioned to me by a user named Tay Mackenzie and I cannot thank them enough!
He has facial animations that match GTA V's base npc models. However, he does not have cutscene facial animations as that is a bit tougher to make. I suggest using a mod called Character Swap if you choose to use him for missions or cutscenes.
