Dmitri rules the Wall with iron discipline and is prideful of the fact that under his leadership, no inmate escape or serious incident has occurred in the past 50 years. He is a skilled and strong fighter, as seen during his confrontations with Henry. Unlike the other antagonists in the series, he isn’t particularly cartoonish, or one with redeeming qualities. All of his scenes are tense and entirely serious, with almost no comedic moments compared to every other main character in the series, making him one of the most sadistic characters in the entire Henry Stickmin series.
Dmitri seems to only care about having a good reputation by locking away as many convicts as possible. At the end of the Convict Allies route, he is utterly livid after Henry and Ellie's escape efforts start the first prison riot at the Wall in fifty years, and later on, he states that the reason he came back for revenge against Henry and Ellie in PP/TR (TR specifically) was because Henry ruined his 50-year long record/reputation. Despite his pride in his efficiency and job, he often locks away prisoners for ridiculous reasons, many of which are mostly innocent (e.g. Jack S'tickeye presumably being locked up for being loud and Mark Emu being locked up for laughing after saying he wouldn't).
Dmitri does not seem to care about his employees. In Presumed Dead, he says that he will cut out the paycheck of everyone, but never mentions the deaths of the two guards that were killed in action, neither the others that Henry killed. In Pardoned Pals/Toppat Recruits, he seems to prefer to take revenge on Henry and Ellie than fixing the complex left in a mess by the convicts and give proper treatment to the deceased guards, as he could just hire new ones.
Despite being evil, Dmitri never exactly leaves anyone to die in a trap. At the climax of the Presumed Dead ending, he slowly goes on and on about how Henry has two choices, instead of immediately pushing the truck over the cliff or telling his men to arrest Henry. This gives Henry time to grab onto the cliff face and, as soon as Dmitri assumes Henry is dead and heads back to the Wall, to pull himself up and escape. At the climax of the Toppat Recruits ending, he rants about his revenge on Henry (and his ruined reputation) instead of just throwing Henry off the rocket. As a result, Henry recovers enough to dodge Dmitri's punch and tosses him off the rocket to his death.
The International Rescue Operative ending throws his morality most into question. Presumably, it follows the endings where Henry allies with the government and is pardoned for his crimes. Unless Henry got into some shenanigans off-screen, this could very well mean the Warden ignored Henry's pardon and locked him up anyway. Further, the route shows that the Wall's soldiers are willing to fire on government agents.
