Daryl Dixon/Rick Grimes/Carol Peletier, also known as Carickyl, is the poly pairing of Daryl Dixon, Rick Grimes and Carol Peletier in The Walking Dead fandom.

Canon

Rick, Daryl and Carol all meet in Season 1 at the Atlanta quarry camp. In the beginning Daryl is adversarial, but first develops a friendship with Carol, then Rick. In Season 2 Carol's daughter Sophia goes missing and both Rick and Daryl look for her, but Daryl does the majority of the searching after Rick's son is shot. The efforts turn out to be in vain because it is later discovered that Sophia was bit and turned into a walker. In Season 4 Rick banishes Carol after she kills two ill members of their group, trying to stop the spread of a deadly sickness. Daryl vehemently disagrees with Rick's decision. After the prison falls all three are separated, reuniting in Season 5 when Carol saves the group from Terminus. Later Carol leaves the group, seeking refuge at The Kingdom.
