Dimitri is one of the game's lord characters, and his defeat under the player's control is grounds for an immediate game over. He is the primary protagonist of the Azure Moon route and a temporary playable character and recurring boss on all other routes.
In Chapters [[Reunion at Dawn|13]]–[[Blood of the Eagle and Lion|17]] of Azure Moon, Dimitri is unable to unlock [[support]]s, participate in monastery activities, receive gifts or lost items, or receive instruction from Byleth; he regains the ability to interact with these systems after [[The King's Triumphant Return|Chapter 18]].

*As the boss in [[Field of Revenge|Crimson Flower Chapter 17]], Dimitri's map sprite depicts him with an eyepatch despite the fact that he does not lose the use of his right eye on the Crimson Flower route.
*As the boss in [[Field of Revenge|Crimson Flower Chapter 17]], Dimitri's map sprite depicts him with an eyepatch while his portrait and model do not.
**Despite this, there are sprites in the game's code that depict him without an eyepatch, though these are left [[Unused content in Fire Emblem: Three Houses|unused]] for unknown reasons.

*As a [[Lord]] in Part I, the eyes on Dimitri's sprite will change color to match those of his current affiliation—blue as a player unit, red as an enemy, yellow as a third army enemy. This quirk is not present for [[Edelgard]] or [[Claude]], or even for Dimitri's Part II sprites.

*Dimitri has [[Wikipedia:Ageusia|ageusia]]; he lost his ability to taste food after the [[Tragedy of Duscur]].<ref>{{Cite|Do you recall when I ate that meal you cooked and I told you it was delicious?

*Oddly, when playing a [[New Game +]] save file, if Dimitri is set to wear his War (Part II) outfit during chapters before the timeskip, his eyepatch will be omitted, making his physical appearance similar to how he appeared on the Crimson Flower route. Similarly, wearing his Academy (Part I) outfit during chapters after the timeskip will also remove his eyepatch.

*On the Blue Lions route, despite Dimitri's drastic change in behavior and demeanor upon discovering the Flame Emperor's true identity in [[Throne of Knowledge|Chapter&nbsp;11]], he can still be interacted with normally while exploring the monastery during [[To War|Chapter&nbsp;12]], with none of his voice lines during activities, instructions, or battles being altered to reflect his mental state.
*On the Blue Lions route, from Chapters 13 to 17, Dimitri's character portrait and model possess eyebags, and his voice lines in battle are more aggressive. From Chapter&nbsp;18 onward, his eyebags disappear and his voice lines become less aggressive.
**However, in Part II, Dimitri's state of mind will negatively affect the player's interaction with him. Due to his single-minded fixation on killing Edelgard, he cannot be invited to any monastery activities, build support with any other units, be given gifts or lost items, nor can he be instructed in improving skill levels outside of combat. This will remain in effect until [[The King's Triumphant Return|Chapter&nbsp;18]], in which a story event will cause Dimitri to calm down and can be interacted with normally for the rest of the playthrough.
**Despite Dimitri's drastic change in behavior in [[Throne of Knowledge|Chapter&nbsp;11]], he can still be interacted with normally while exploring the monastery during [[To War|Chapter&nbsp;12]] with none of his voice lines being altered to reflect his mental state, unlike in Part&nbsp;II.
**From Chapters [[Reunion at Dawn|13]] to [[Blood of the Eagle and Lion|17]], Dimitri's character portrait and model will possess eyebags, reflecting the mental stress he underwent during the five year timeskip; his voice lines in battle are also more aggressive to reflect this as well. From Chapter&nbsp;18 onward, the eyebags disappear, and the aggressiveness of his voice lines in battle tones down significantly, representing his mental well-being improving.
*Dimitri is the only unit whose budding talent starts at a D&nbsp;rank; every other units' starts at an E rank.
*Dimitri is the only playable character whose budding talent starts at a D rank, as opposed to everyone else who starts at an E rank.
*Dimitri's name appears on a box in the background of the episode "Hammerbarn" of the TV show ''[[wikipedia:Bluey|Bluey]]'', along with Edelgard's and Claude's. However, his name is misspelled as "Dmitri".
