## History

### Early Life

#### Walking With The Witches

When Carl was four years old, he was visiting the Halliwell Manor with mother and father to see his cousins; Prue, Piper and Phoebe. Prue adored Carl and was so much like her. Carl's school smarts developed really early and he could talk with big words. When at the Manor, demons attacked and Carl protected his mother and father, and his cousins. He acted without instinct and used his powers to vanquish the demons. Afterwards, he passed out and was taken back to King County; his powers being bound prior to leaving. Contact sort of fell out between him and the sisters, as he didn't know what he did wrong as he couldn't remember. The sisters didn't either and only thought it was a demon attack, and Carl had to go away because of it.

### Later Life

Carl is currently growing up as a witch, a powerful one. He is the Queen's Hand and also the leader of the Pentad. He is friends with Enid Nacon, Sophia Peletier, Meghan Chambler, Mikey, and Cyndie. He fell in love with Louis Morales *and* Ron Anderson, and became torn between the two. *(The rest of his history can be found in Walking With The Witches)*

## The Charming Dead

Carl is a character in the *The Charming Dead*. He is a survivor of the outbreak. He is the son of Rick and Lori Grimes. During the initial outbreak, Carl believed his father to be dead, so he and his mother joined Shane 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, and he has shown to be more than willing to assist and protect the people he cares about.

### Pre-Apocalypse
