Jikk Deev was a male Faust officer of the Republic Army. He served in the Eighth Republic Expeditionary Fleet under Mali Darakhan; while Darakhan was commander of all forces in the fleet, Deev was the Deputy Commander for Ground Operations and had considerable influence on ground strategy. In Darakhan's absence, he also commanded ground forces in any engagement, as happened at the Battle of Cademimu V.
