Dimitri Alexandre Blaiddyd is the crown prince of the Holy Kingdom of Faerghus and the house leader of the Blue Lions at the Officers Academy. Orphaned at fifteen by the Tragedy of Duscur — a massacre that killed his father King Lambert, his stepmother, and many of his knights — Dimitri carries a trauma that he has never fully processed and a desire for vengeance that he has never fully acknowledged. He was raised on the ideals of Faerghus chivalry: honor, loyalty, the protection of the weak. He believes in these ideals genuinely, but they sit uneasily atop a capacity for violence that frightens him. He is aware, in a quiet and guilty way, that there is something wrong with him — a darkness, a hunger, a rage that surfaces in battle and leaves him hollowed afterward. Felix witnessed it during a rebellion suppression and named it: the boar. After the fall of Garreg Mach and five years as a vagrant, that darkness consumed him. He became a ghost driven by a single obsession: killing Edelgard. He pushed away everyone who tried to help him, refused to eat or sleep or care for himself, and heard the voices of the dead demanding blood. On the Azure Moon route, the death of Rodrigue and the persistence of those who refused to give up on him pulled him back from the edge. He did not recover — not cleanly, not fully — but he learned to carry his darkness instead of being carried by it. He became a king who had seen the worst of himself and chose, every day, to be better. The choice never became easy. It simply became his.
