Allen Bismarck

Allen Bismarck is a minor character that appears throughout the series.

Biography
He first appeared in Chapter One: Michael, in which he was stabbed by George Kervald after he attacked Lanna Merkel during the Las Vegas Incident. Complications from his wounds nearly caused him to die in the hospital. His near-death experience caused him to obsess over Lanna, viewing his scars as tokens of his failure to protect her. In Season Two, it is revealed that he returned to Little Rock after receiving treatment at a hospital in Las Vegas. His obsession over his failure led to him becoming a vigilante known by criminals in the Little Rock area as The Eastern Shadow. As Shadow, he murdered several convicted sex offenders who he believed had not payed for their crimes.

Death
As Michael and Martin are sitting in the Little Rock Jazz Club, Allen walked into the bar area and sat down beside Jackson Martzi, a known sex offender who had been kept out of prison by the Fraternal Commonwealth of Arkansas. Unknown to Allen, however, Martzi had been expecting Allen to enter the bar, as a private investigator that had been hired by the Fraternity had tipped him off to Allen's increased surveillance of the bar two days prior. A few seconds after Allen sat down, he attempted to engage Martzi in conversation. However, he only manged to get a few words out before Martzi drew a revolver from his coat pocket and shot Allen three times in the chest. Martzi fled the scene, while Allen bled out on the floor of the bar before paramedics arrived.
