Biography[]
Carl's first appearance was in the "Roblox NPCs are becoming smart!" video. The video starts with Carl finding a gun on the ground and trying to pick it up, but no matter how much he tries, he can't collect it. Groovy then picks up the gun and ends up stuck, with half of his body buried on the ground. Carl gets angry at the player for "stealing his gun", saying he deserved it and refusing to help.
Groovy insists on asking for help, and eventually Carl lies that, by pressing Alt + F4 they will both get free robux (in reality, doing this closes the game). Groovy states that it sounds like a scam, with Carl denying and insisting that he tries the trick. Groovy replies with "well ok then" and it's presumed that he fell for the trick as the video suddenly ended.
Carl made numerous other appearances in GroovyDominoes52’s videos, mostly on his “I make your Roblox NPCs are becoming smart ending suggestions series”.
After the success of the NPC series, a game was made based on the series. In the game, Carl can be seen on a cutscene at the start. In the cutscene, he finds a gun but is unable to pick it up. Afterwards, the player can do some actions, such as talking to him, in order to summon specific endings with Carl. If the player says something out of the script, Carl will say “I don't understand” and the “Unrelated Ending” will happen.
Villainous Actions[]
In the game[]
- Carl kills the player on several endings, such as in the Hacker, No U, Philippines, Karma and Bad Endings, sometimes for silly reasons such as the player simply calling him bad.
- He's also perfectly okay with the player committing suicide, even letting them have the gun if they say they'll use it to shoot themselves.
- Both in the series and the game, he tries to trick the player into pressing Alt + F4, lying that they'll get "free bobux" if they do so.

Though he does regret it and fixes them later.
- in "Why does Carl the NPC want the freaking gun?", after Carl finally picks up the gun, he uses it to kill everyone in the server and only stops after Groovy uses his coding to delete Carl's gun.
