Richard Harrow

Richard Harrow was a main character in Boardwalk Empire, being a side character in season 1, then being one of the protagonists in seasons 2-4. 
He was a veteran of World War 1, having served in the U.S. army as a marksman until he was wounded and his face left horribly disfigured, which he now covers with a tin mask. Broken and traumatized by the war, he meets and befriends fellow war veteran James Darmody, an up-and-coming gangster with his own agenda. Richard then accompanies Jimmy into the criminal underworld as a hitman, gaining a reputation for his lethality and precision. Although he is an efficient killer, he takes no pleasure in his work, wishing only to live a peaceful life and have a family of his own to love and care for, though he now believes it to be an impossibility.
He is portrayed by Jack Huston, who also portrayed Pete Musane in American Hustle, Judah Ben-Hur in Ben-Hur, Robert F. Kennedy in The Irishman, and Dominico De Sole in House of Gucci.

==Skills and Abilities==
Due to his time in the army, as well as learning how to shoot from a young age, Richard's combat experience and skillset made him a deadly assassin and more than capable to carry out the biddings of James Darmody and Nucky Thompson.
*High Intelligence: Richard is a well-spoken and well-read individual, and is shown to possess a tactical and strategic mindset, further solidified by his combat experience. This can be seen during several hits in his choice of vantage points to take out his targets.
* Expert Marksman: Richard was a highly skilled sniper in world war 1, having killed dozens of German soldiers. As such, he is an incredible marksman and is rarely seen missing a shot. This, on top of his mastery in the usage of various firearms, allows him to singlehandedly kill a dozen of Gyp Rosetti's men in his quest to rescue Tommy.
*Knifemanship: Although not used as much as guns, Richard has demonstrated his skill in using knives, such as using one to kill the henchman of a vengeful gangster in Wisconsin, as well as scalping Parkhurst on Jimmy's orders.
*Hand-to-hand: Richard has shown capabilities in using hand-to-hand combat, as demonstrated when he overpowered and killed a much physically stronger (though wounded) adversary during his shootout in Gillian's home. He was also able to overpower Paul Sagorsky, an experienced fighter, after the latter insulted him, calling him a 'sideshow freak'.
*Stealth and Infiltration: Richard is highly capable of using stealth, which he uses to get the drop on many of his targets. This can be seen where he effortlessly sneaks up on and dispatches two rival assassins near a diner, cutting the throat of one and shooting the other in the head with a silenced pistol. He is skilled in infiltration as well, shown when he sneaks into Mickey Doyle's residence and waits for him to confront him on his claims of killing Manny Horvitz.
