It is my duty to atone for my sins, and to pay for the lives I've taken. I suppose...that must be why the goddess allows me to live on.
personality
Motivations | Dimitri's primary motivations change throughout the game. Before the time skip, he's driven by two primary goals. To create a kingdom free from discrimination — where the people from Duscur, especially, could be respected and welcomed — and to locate those responsibility for the tragedy of Duscur and enact revenge upon them. Both of those stem from the same series of incidents, the massacre where his family and friends were killed in front of him and the following near genocide of the Duscur people, done out of misdirected vengeance. Alongside those goals, he also wishes to make other changes to the system, such as the reliance on crests, and to prevent any needless loss of life. Which, as far as he's concerned, is almost any.
After the time skip, specifically post-Chapter 17, he comes to recognize that seeking revenge on behalf of the dead is a destructive path. Instead, he seeks to try and end conflict through acceptance instead of annihilation. His primary motivation from that point on is doing what he feels is best for his people, including his previous goal of creating a society free from discrimination and oppression, along with atoning for the sins he has committed in the past.

Handling Conflict | Oh boy. As long as the conflict does not relate Duscur, anything which may trigger reminders of those incidents, or involve harming innocents, Dimitri is reasonably well equipped to handle issues in a responsible and mature manner. He has a strong sense of duty, a tendency towards fairness, and the willingness to try to appeal to others. He tries to see both sides of a situation, including the problems of society itself, and find solutions which cause the least amount of harm.
That being said, he's far from perfect and has his own blind spots and weaknesses. The most notable is a propensity towards violence and blood lust, particularly in relation to those incidents mentioned above. When confronted with them, he becomes irrational and vicious, unable to listen to reason and generally destructive. Beast like. Those traits range from well-hidden but present, such as before the time skip, to overpowering, which is what we see during and immediately after the time skip. Even once he begins to recover, it still appears briefly when facing those responsible, he's just better at controlling and moving on from those behaviors.

Six Traits | Six primary traits of the character would be compassionate, responsible, self-loathing, sincere, lonely, and driven.
The first is both his greatest strength and worst flaw, as his compassion is what motivates many of his choices — for better or for worse. Dimitri is deeply empathetic and this contributes to both his responsibility and his self-loathing. He takes his duty as a prince with the utmost seriousness and desires to do what is best for all of his people. However, that same urge contributes to his feelings of guilt and fuels his destructive tendencies. In part, because he feels the same consideration towards the dead and therefore must fulfill the revenge they are owed, and in part, because he holds himself to the same moral standards he applies elsewhere. Thus, by his own perspective, his bloodshed and the death he has caused mark him as a monster.
Dimitri is sincere, somewhat painfully so. Though he is capable of masking aspects of his personality, deception does not come to him naturally, and he isn't one to rely on double-meanings. Instead, he tends to be polite and upfront with his feelings. His honest and serious nature can come across as naive and stiff... Which is not always far from the truth.
His loneliness stems from two primary sources. The first is his position within the kingdom, which serves to set him apart from his peers. Though Dimitri himself desires to be seen as an equal and does not believe there's any difference in worth between people, regardless of position, others often feel differently. There are only a few people willing to reach past those borders and treat him accordingly, as a friend. The second reason is his self-loathing. Dimitri often questions whether or not he deserves or is worthy of the care and trust his companions and people show in him.
Finally, driven. Dimitri is always dedicated to giving everything he has for his goals or for those around him. This can be shown in a variety of ways, such as the research he puts into locating the culprit behind Duscur, or his propensity towards overworking himself after reclaiming Fhirdiad. At its worst, this can escalate to full-blown obsession, leading to self-neglect and abandonment of his other goals. This detrimental single-mindedness is best exemplified with his behaviour during and following the time skip.
(He also suffers from frequent hallucinations, specifically of his fallen loved ones demanding he fulfills their revenge, along with headaches, nightmares, and ageusia)
appearance
eyes: blue
height: 180cm/5'11 pre ts | 188cm/6'2 post TS
build: thin but muscled pre ts | shaped like a dorito post ts
features: eye patch post ts + varied scars rest of body
Description | Pre-time skip, Dimitri is a relatively normal looking teenager, albeit one with excellent posture and a questionable haircut. He stands on the taller side, with an average frame. Thin but muscled from a lifetime of combat training. He's usually covered up head to toe, often in his school uniform. His version of which includes armored gloves and boots, along with the blue cape which marks him as house leader of the Blue Lions.
Underneath the clothing, he does have a handful of scars. The most notable of which are the deep markings across his back, made when he protected Dedue during their first meeting, a consequence he bears proudly.
After the time skip, he has several notable changes. First among them is a few extra inches of height, along with a general increase in width which lends a hulking appearance. Adding to this is the armor he now wears, including a large fur-sewn cloak. Outside of his shoulders/chest area, he's still on the slender side. Thus, dorito.
During this time period, his hair is also grown out and somewhat wild. There are several new scars which adorn his body, including over his right eye — now almost perpetually covered by an eye patch.
During and immediately following the time skip, these changes are accompanied with a sense of neglect. There is no real effort put into his appearance or hygiene, besides what is necessary to survive. Bags show under eye and even the way he carries himself becomes more hunched and less precise. After chapter 17, this no longer applies.

First Impressions |
Pre time-skip: 5'11, lean but muscled, blue eyes, short blond hair with bangs, and a general vibe of ye'olden fantasy land prep. Formal, polite, genuine, all with a lurking darkness beneath.
Post time-skip: 6'2, broad, one-eyed, shaggy blond hair, rocking a warrior king aesthetic. Post chapter 17, he remains polite, formal, and genuine, but with a sense of sadness and grave responsibility present.

abilities
Crest of Blaiddyd | Dimitri has a minor crest of Blaiddyd. In gameplay terms, this means he has a small percentage change to randomly get an increase in the effectiveness of his combat arts at the cost of double weapon durability damage. This ties into his strength below.
Strength(!) | As part of his crest/bloodline, Dimitri is strong. Like, ridiculously strong. This is reflected in the game itself (highest strength cap + high strength growths) along with various mentions in the story, such as the time he lifted a wagon or his history of breaking weapons/sewing needles/scissors and so on. It's also the cause of his dislike towards more delicate tasks. Post time skip, he seems to have gained more control so the negative effects are less prominent.
Combat Skills | Dimitri has had a great deal of education when it comes to combat and weaponry, having begun training at a young age. His specialties include lances (and associated polearms), swords, and horseback riding. Due to the nature of Three Houses gameplay, all students are technically capable of learning any skill, but the first two listed are his primary skills and the ones associated with his specific Great Lord class, along with authority. In terms of magic, his spell list can include a few lightning spells and healing, it isn't something he has any natural talent or inclination towards.
Also, in additional to strength, Dimitri has extremely high stat growths in pretty much every category except magic, resistance, and luck. This reflects his status as a well-rounded melee fighter who is agile despite his size and with a solid defense (outside of magic).

Other | As crown prince, Dimitri has a well-rounded education in the necessary aspects a ruler requires and is experienced with warfare and battlefield tactics. He's charismatic despite his earnest personality (or because of it) and his occasional moments of awkwardness. By the endgame, he's begun to grow into his leadership and is more comfortable in his own authority.
