Master of the Kanima+Season 2
In [[Season 2]], when [[Jackson Whittemore|Jackson]] became the Kanima, his first Master came to be [[Matt Daehler]].
 
Matt was a traumatized studentteenager who held a vendetta against a group of people involved in his near-drowning years earlier when he was a little boy, including [[Mr. Lahey|Isaac's father]].
 
Matt'd
unintentionally took a photo of Lahey. He looked down the lense of his camera, feeling an unbelievable rage, wishing Lahey was dead. Jackson, who was newly transformed into the Kanima and thus seeking a Master, reacted to this vengeful feeling elsewhere and exacted Matt's vengence. When Matt first saw Jackson as the Kanima, the shapeshifter was instinctively attracted to him, and vice versa. Once bonded to Jackson, theMatt saw shapeshifterthat sharedthe aKanima memoryhad killed withLahey himfor andhim.

Matt usedrealized the bond between him and his servant had brought this power upon him. He just had to take a photo of his victim, or think about it, then Jackson would take their live. Matt used the Kanima to kill all the people involved in the incident.
 
In [[2x10 - Fury|Fury]], Matt Daeher is killed by [[Gerard Argent]]. Gerard then becomes Jackson's new Master by greeting the Kanima afterward. This is most likely due to Gerard's psycopathic, bloodthirsty character, qualities the Kanima presumably searches for in its Master. This could explain why the Kanima didn't attack Gerard in [[2x06 - Frenemy|Frenemy]], because the shapeshifter saw Gerard as a noteworthy Master. Likewise, the Kanima had killed Lahey before Matt and Jackson had bonded, presumably because the Kanima side of Jackson had reacted to Matt's rage towards Lahey, exacting his vengeance.
