## Physical traits and personality

Caring Slash has the amazing traits of a very powerful unicorn. His fur is white and his hair is a dark purple color. Many think is hair is actually black which is not true. He has a muscular body type. His hair is short although a little messy in the front. His tail styled in a respectable way to make his appearance not look disheveled.

Caring Slash's personality is a mix of a very kind and being a understanding pony but can come off as very serious and encouraging to others. Caring's kindness was passed down from his mother while his strength, seriousness, and encouragement comes from his father.

## Daily life

Caring Slash's daily consists of working as a therapist in Ponyville. He spends the day talking to co-worker's and his various patients throughout the day. Some of the problems his patients have are easy to fix while some are more serious and are aren't so easy to fix.

During his free time, he spends time with his wife Angel Heart, his friends, or his family. Caring and Angel do fun things together and they act cute and loving. Caring also spends his free time casting spells and making potions. Interests he has developed since he was a young colt. While he does good at both, magic is his strong suit.

## Early life

Caring Slash was born in Canterlot as the son of Split Slash, a Canterlot guard, and Caring Love being a foal sitter. He was born fraternal with his sister Love Cut. He also has a bigger brother named Nice Split. Although he grew up in Canterlot, his family was never a royal kind. From a early age, Caring showed what kind of styles he wants and his interest in magic. When Caring was young, his Mom wanted Caring to look much nicer and well kept with his hair. Caring fought to have his hair and tail style to be what he wants it to be. Caring studied spells in spell books, even spells he shouldn't be casting at a young age. Although he was loved by his parents and sister. His big brother bullied him when he was younger in age.

Caring was able to go to Magic Kindergarten where he befriended Twilight Sparkle as the two have shared interests in magic. A friendship that would last forever. As Caring got older, his magic got stronger and he eventually also began to learn how to make potions. Amongst all that, he still lived life as a happy and sweet child. Caring and his sister's friendship grew stronger by the year. Caring eventually found interest in helping others as they go through other problems.

By the time he became an adult, he was stronger then ever. He moved to Ponyville and also found love in a mare named Angel Heart. The two met in a library together and began to talk to each other. The two could sense the love between one another and went on a date together, and it went off without a hitch. He also got his job as a therapist. Helping others problems and try to give them the best solution to better help them.

## Late life

Shortly after moving to Ponyville, Caring crossed paths with Willful Ground in Canterlot as he was dealing with his troublesome mother. Caring gave him comfort and support to try and help him. He later met Willful's lover Eden Clouds and Caring helped Eden with her magic. This eventually led to helping other unicorns along with Eden.

Caring and Angel eventually got married and gave birth to fraternal twin daughters. Sweet Star and Feather Star. Then they gave birth to a son named Tender Slash. Which Angel got the silly idea, to make Caring be pregnant with their unicorn son, an idea she got from Eden Clouds, who had done the same to Willful Ground. Caring's family was always loved and supported. As the children grew over the years, they inherited their interests and love. Caring and Angel let their kids do what they want and be what they want to be.

Caring and Angel got a surprise when their daughter Sweet Star fell in love with Willful Tree who was the son of Willful Ground and Eden Clouds. Although it started off as a friendship, it soon blossomed into a long lasting love. His other daughter Feather Star found love in a reformed changeling named Firefly. His younger son Tender soon found love in Canterlot with Magnifico, a mare who turned out to be Prince Blueblood's daughter.

As Caring aged, he continued to love his family and continue his knowledge of spells and potions. Passing it onto the next generation and hoping it would be helpful and help Equestria prosper long after he passes. Eventually, Caring retired his therapist job and continued to teach unicorns magic. He helped teach the daughter of the sister of his son-in-law Lush Sky magic as well. Caring passed away in his sleep at the age of 94 years old.

## Development

Caring Slash was created by Dalton Lampert in mid to late 2015. Made to look like his creator but Dalton then created a standalone version of himself. At the start, the character did not have a name. Dalton made a Deviantart account in early March of 2016 and he asked his followers what to name him. One of Dalton's friends/followers suggested three names. One of the names is Caring Slash. Dalton liked the name and has kept it since. There is a few designs that Caring went through. The first model of Caring had a bigger muzzle like Big Macintosh's and his tail was much shorter. The second model of Caring had a longer tail and matched his hair style. Both of the first 2 models were made in 2015. The third model of Caring got a slimmer muzzle made in early 2016. This is the model Dalton uses for full body requests and commissions. The fourth and current model of Caring has a better styled tail. This style is used in videos in Dalton and Sylvain Barre's videos since 2022. This model was made in late 2016.

Caring's personality and interest were changed and made official in the late 2010's and were further updated throughout 2019 to 2022. In mid 2020, Dalton and Sylvain met after Dalton commented on one of Sylvain's videos on his channel sharing their love of transformations. Sylvain knew some of Dalton's TF. The two started chatting on Deviantart yet again in early 2022 to work on the collaborated release of Starlight's Revenge that released in May of 2022. Ever since then the two have worked together and chatting about ideas and projects.
