Carl Grimes

Carl Grimes is the former deuteragonist and a survivor of the outbreak in AMC's The Walking Dead. He is the son of Rick and Lori Grimes and the older brother of Judith Grimes and older half-brother to RJ Grimes. He was in a relationship with Sophia Peletier and they both had a daughter, Elena Grimes. During the initial outbreak, Carl believed his father to be dead, so he and his mother joined Shane Walsh and Mariana Walsh to travel to Atlanta to the refugee camp.
As time progresses, Carl slowly becomes hardened due to the severe loss of life and the environment around him. He has shown to be more than willing to assist and protect the people he cares about, especially Michonne Hawthorne, another survivor who he regards as a mother figure and his best friend.
In the middle of the war against Negan and the Saviors, Carl contemplates the future of the communities. Following a last selfless act of rescuing three strangers, Carl leaves behind a legacy for his family and friends to change the world for the better and focus on rebuilding civilization.
Carl is a member of the Grimes Family.

Carl was born in 1998 and grew up in King County, where he experienced an average childhood raised by his father, Rick Grimes (a sheriff deputy) alongside his mother Lori (a housewife). The three lived together as a typical family in a single-story house in King County, Georgia. He also befriended his father's closest friend, Shane Walsh. When Carl was 3 years old, Rick would've taken him on a walk to Ross' farm, where Carl became grateful for the safety and happiness his father provided him.  
In third grade, he had a best friend whom was allergic to dairy products and thus brought in soy-based meals for lunchtime, one day Carl tasted his friend's milk and almost vomited, (which became a humorous memory for him.) As he grew he developed a keen interest in playing video games and reading comic books.
Over time however, his parents' marriage became increasingly strained due to their marital issues and Carl was often in the presence of their parents quarrels, where one day, Carl witnessed Lori questioning if Rick truly cared about his family, an incident which affected to Carl to a degree.
