"Hello Henry, welcome to The Wall. Some of the most cunning and notorious criminals are kept here, and now we have the infamous Henry Stickmin."
- Dmitri introduces Henry to The Wall
Dmitri Johannes Petrov (Russian: Димитрий Иван Петров) is the head of the Russian prison complex known as The Wall. He is the main antagonist in Fleeing the Complex, and one of Henry's main enemies.
Character
Dmitri has a gray mustache, beard and eyebrows, and talks with a thick Russian accent. He rules The Wall with iron discipline and is very proud of the fact that under his leadership, no inmate has ever escaped or no serious incident has ever happened in the past 50 years. He is a skilled and strong fighter, as seen during his confrontations with Henry.
Role in Fleeing the Complex
In the teaser trailer for Fleeing the Complex, he can be heard talking to one of his underlings, possibly Gregory showing interest in Henry because of his many past crimes. Together they decide to have Henry captured. At the start of the game, he confronts the captured Henry, threatening him with a very long sentence at The Wall.
When Henry attempts to escape, he has a run-in with the Dmitri on several occasions.
Presumed Dead
During the “Presumed Dead” ending, Dmitri hears about Henry’s escape attempt and raises the alarm. He threatens his men not to force him to take matters into his own hand. When the truck in which Henry tries to escape falls over at the edge of a cliff, Dmitri confronts Henry there. He admits he’s impressed by Henry’s escape attempt and orders him to surrender. When Henry fails to respond in time, Dmitri kicks the truck over the edge of the cliff and leaves Henry for death.
However, Henry survives in a hole in the cliff, but Dmitri doesn't take into account that there could have been an area under the overhang where a convict could possibly save himself by grabbing onto the rock. He then presumes Henry died, and goes away while Henry successfully leaves the area of The Wall.
Convict Allies
During the “Convict Allies” ending, after Henry and Ellie start a massive prison break, a very angry Dmitri confronts the two in the Yard, just when they are about to flee on a motorcycle. He tackles Henry to the floor and tries to hit him, but Ellie manages to get away and knocks the Warden out cold with a stop sign. Afterward both she and Henry make it out of The Wall. It is unknown if Petrov survived the hit or not.
