We investigate the standard relativistic geometrically thin and optically thick accretion disk in the background of a deformed compact object. The main purpose of this work is to determine whether such a deformed object possesses its own observational fingerprint that can distinguish it from Schwarzschild and Kerr black holes. Our analysis reveals the properties of this relativistic accretion disk model and its dependence on the initial parameters.
