{{kanimaMasters|size: large; margin-right: 20px; float: left}}The Master of the Kanima is the being who [[mind control|controls]] and uses the shapeshifter soto it will carry out the Master's vengeance.
 
The Master will use the shapeshifter to do his bidding, carry out his orders unquestioningly and kill those the Master deems so.
 
In [[Season 2]], two people became a kanima's master after [[Jackson Whittemore]] transformed into such a shapeshifter: [[Matt Daehler]] and [[Gerard Argent]].
 
Both antagonists controlled Jackson to commit their crimes throughout Season 2.

{{210image26|size: large; margin-top:5px; margin-left: 5px; float: right}}The rules concerning the Kanima is specifically that the Master is to use the Kanima to kill murderers, individuals who have taken lives.
 
If the Master uses the shapeshifter to kill innocents, or if the Master takes lives himself, that breaks the rules of the curse. Matt committed such acts and Matthe began to consequently transform into a Kanima himself.
 

[[Derek Hale]]: You can't just break the rules. [...] The universe balances things out. Always does.
