* IRegretNothing: Even though she feels guilty for what happened to Connie, she firmly tells Daryl that she doesn't regret most of her actions throughout Season 10, specifically detonating the explosives that took out half of Alpha's horde or freeing Negan to kill Alpha herself.

* VillainKiller: She has one of the highest kill counts on the show, especially when it comes to villains. She almost singlehandedly took down the entire cannibal clan of Terminus with a few bullets, a propane tank, and fireworks. For the Wolves, she took them all down by disguising herself among them when they invaded Alexandria. With the Whisperers, she singlehandedly took out half their horde of zombies (and almost got a few people killed doing so), and successfully set up their leader Alpha to be killed by Negan.

* DoomMagnet: Any child who gravitates towards Carol may just as well consider their days numbered. The running tally so far is five: Sophia, Lizzie, Mika, Sam, and Henry.

* ShipperOnDeck: She encourages Daryl to pursue a relationship with Connie, telling him that he can't hide out with his dog forever.

!!Due to the AnyoneCanDie nature of the show and quickly moving plots, only spoilers from the current/most recent season will be spoiled out to prevent entire pages of whited out text. These spoiler tags will be removed upon the debut of the following season, and the character bios will be updated then as well. Additionally, character portraits will be updated each half-season with the release of an official, complete set from AMC. If you have not seen the first nine seasons read at your own risk!

* TheAloner: She usually lapses into this whenever she's feeling morally conflicted. In Season 5, traumatized from what happened with Lizzie and Mika, she tries to leave after saving the group from Terminus, only to be stopped by Daryl. In late Season 6, she leaves Alexandria, as she feels she can no longer kill to protect the group. In Season 7, she moves into a cottage near the Kingdom so she can live in peace, not wishing to suffer anymore. She snaps out of this when she learns of the deaths of Glenn, Abraham, and several others. After Henry's death she spends much of the TimeSkip between Seasons 9 and 10 on a boat, far away from any of her friends. [[spoiler:Even after Negan kills Henry's murderer, Alpha, she still insists on going off on her own. It takes a hallucination of Alpha herself to finally call Carol out on it and convince her to return to the fold.]]

* BestServedCold: [[spoiler:It takes some time, but she eventually avenges the death of her son by having Negan infiltrate the Whisperers and decapitate Alpha. For an extra bit of satisfaction, she puts Alpha's severed, reanimated head on one of the now-vacant pikes, just as the woman once did to Henry and nine others.]]

* CatharticScream: [[spoiler:She lets out a whopper at Alpha when the latter smugly grins at the herd scouting party having been caught in her trap in "Squeeze".]]

* LeeroyJenkins: In Season 10, due to her unstable DeathSeeker tendencies. When she sees Alpha staring at her from the other side of the forest she wastes no time giving in to her blind rage and chasing after her, her own life be damned. [[spoiler:It becomes worse when a later episode reveals Carol had already tasked Negan with taking care of Alpha, meaning all she had to do was sit back and wait for him to deliver Alpha's head as promised. Granted, it's ''Negan'' and there's no guarantees he would keep to his word once Carol freed him, but it was still an ''incredibly'' reckless and ill-advised move nonetheless.]]

** In "The World Before", [[spoiler:while the group is searching for the walker horde, Carol spots Alpha and gives chase. Everyone else follows and they all end up trapped in the cave where Alpha is keeping thousands of walkers.]]
** In "Squeeze", she [[spoiler:strays from the group mere moments before they can escape the cave and attempts to destroy the horde with a stick of dynamite. Daryl manages to talk her down from it, but she drops the dynamite into the chasm below, causing a massive cave-in that leads to Connie and Magna getting trapped inside with seemingly no way out.]] Carol realizes this and breaks down, begging Daryl to blame her for the tragedy.
* NotSoDifferent: Horrifically, she learns that she's almost exactly like the Savior [[EvilCounterpart Paula]]. Evidently, she also realizes she's not too far off from Alpha, if her hallucination of the [[spoiler:deceased]] Whisperer leader is any indication.

* PragmaticHero: She's a fundamentally good person acting with the best of intentions, but she's willing to commit some very questionable acts in the name of keeping the group safe and she has no problem taking things under her own initiative rather than consulting with the others. Two good examples are in Season 4 when she straight-up murders Karen and David with the intention of keeping the flu overtaking the prison under wraps; and in Season 10, when she [[spoiler:frees Negan and orders him to assassinate Alpha (which he does).]]

* SanitySlippage: Season 10 finds Carol at possibly her lowest point seen on the show thus far. She begins abusing pills, suffering from hallucinations, and putting her friends in the middle of avoidable danger, culminating in her [[spoiler:nearly getting Magna and Connie killed in a cave-in triggered by an explosion that she caused.]]

* TheUnapologetic: [[spoiler:She becomes unable to take responsibility and say sorry to anyone for putting them or their loved ones in harm's way during her vengeance crusade against Alpha. Yumiko even punches her in the face for it, and it takes a hallucination of Alpha to convince Carol to apologize to Kelly for nearly getting Connie killed.]]

* VengeanceFeelsEmpty: [[spoiler:It's implied Alpha's death doesn't give her the satisfaction she had hoped for due to it coming at the cost of Hilltop's destruction and her friends turning their backs on her.]]
* VillainKiller: She has one of the highest kill counts on the show, especially when it comes to villains. She almost singlehandedly took down the entire cannibal clan of Terminus with a few bullets, a propane tank, and fireworks. For the Wolves, she took them all down by disguising herself among them when they invaded Alexandria. With the Whisperers, she singlehandedly took out half their horde of zombies (and almost got a few people killed doing so), and [[spoiler: successfully set up their leader Alpha to be killed by Negan]].

** [[spoiler:Negan is annoyed when she refuses to go back to Alexandria to vouch for him after he kills Alpha for her, instead abandoning him to mope about in the woods.]]

* WhyDidItHaveToBeSnakes: It's very easy to miss, but in the Season 1 finale Carol mentions to Dr. Jenner that she is claustrophobic. [[spoiler:So, naturally, being trapped in a cave in Season 10 and being forced to crawl through several tight spaces to escape doesn't bode well for her ''at all''.]]

!!!'''Portrayed By:''' Melissa [=McBride=]

After the war, Carol finds love with Ezekiel, marrying him and enjoying a happy new family life with him and their adopted son Henry. Six years after the apparent death of Rick, the Kingdom is on the verge of collapse, and Carol helps plan the fair intended to revive the community and rebuild the relationship between the others. Tragically, Henry ends up as one of Alpha’s victims in a massacre, and the grief drives her and Ezekiel apart as the Kingdom falls into disrepair.

Also, while they're not exactly close, she and Eugene never speak directly to each other until Season 10.[[note]]this is worth mentioning because by this point, and with the announcement of the series ending with its’ eleventh season, Eugene has been on the show for over half its run, but only now talks to a character who’s been on the show since the beginning[[/note]]

* AdaptationalAngstUpgrade: She's having it much worse here than in the comics.

* {{Xenafication}}: Her comic counterpart was a NonActionGirl who mostly shied away from danger and this Carol begins the show not much different, being an anti-social ShrinkingViolet who is too afraid to fight zombies and other enemies. From Season 3 onward she becomes a CoolOldLady OneWomanArmy who slaughters hordes of walkers and AxCrazy humans alike and is willing to make the harder choices that others are too afraid to consider. Taken UpToEleven in Season 5 when she completely lays waste to a cannibal base holding the group hostage, annihilating an entire armed group of sociopaths.

One of the {{Deuteragonist}}'s of ''Series/TheWalkingDead'', who has enough examples of tropes to qualify for her own page.

* TheFriendsWhoNeverHang: She and Michonne don't share a scene with just the two of them until Season 9. Also, while they're not exactly close, she and Eugene never speak directly to each other until Season 10.

* HappyEndingOverride: By the end of Season 8, Carol has achieved an EarnYourHappyEnding of sorts. She's accepted that she'll always have friends to help her rebound if killing ever starts to take a toll on her mental state again. She moves into the Kingdom, starts up a relationship with Ezekiel, and becomes a mother figure to Henry, all of which turns her into one of the most stable and well-adjusted characters on the show after she'd had one of the biggest [[TraumaCongaLine Trauma Conga Lines]] of anyone other than maybe Rick and Maggie. In "The Calm Before", Henry is murdered by Alpha, which puts her and Ezekiel's marriage in jeopardy and leads to them divorcing a few months later. The Kingdom also falls and she is forced to say goodbye to her home for the last seven years. Carol outright admits that she's beginning to lose herself again; this continues into Season 10, by which point she has become so obsessed with revenge against Alpha that she barely even listens to Daryl (who tries his damndest to help her) anymore.
