Biography[]
Dimitri was a Nietzschean soldier for the medium-sized Orca Pride. Little is known of about his early or past achievements, other than the fact that he was selected to marry one of the pride's most sought after females, Freya Rajput. However, after an encounter with Tyr Anasazi in which Dimitri's brother Guderian, the pride's Alpha, revealed that he (Dimitri) was in fact sterile, Freya subsequently rejected his advances, choosing instead to marry Tyr. After Tyr succeeded in destroying the Orca's plasma cannon, forcing the pride to flee the onslaught of a Than-Thre-Kull fleet, Dimitri killed Guderian and declared himself the Orca's new Alpha. With this new status, Dimitri claimed Freya and her son Tamerlane Anasazi, the genetic reincarnation of Drago Museveni, as his own. Under his leadership Orca Pride found a new asteroid hideout and a new enemy, the Knights of Genetic Purity. The Knights of Genetic Purity, who were lured out of hiding by the rumors of a new Nietzschean Messiah, besieged the Orca, killing vast numbers of the warriors, so many that Freya believed the pride's only hope lay with her former husband and lover, Tyr Anasazi. Tyr responding to one of Freya's distress calls, rescued her and their son and killed Dimitri in the process, cleverly sneaking up behind him before breaking his neck with his bare hands.
