Kanima Venom

The Kanima's Venom is a paralytic toxin featured in the second, 3rd and 5th season of Teen Wolf. 
== Description ==
=== Effects ===
The Kanima produces its own venom from its claws and hands that leaves it's victims paralyzed just long enough to kill it's victim or until it wears off. The Kanima is also immune to it's own venom with some exceptions; it doesn't work on them when they were in human form as demonstrate with Jackson. When he was under Matt Daehler's control, he paralyzed his victims before killing them himself like Bennett, the hunter, the automechanic or Kara Simmons. When Derek, Erica Reyes, and Issac Lahey tested him, Jackson was paralyzed by his own venom because he was in his human form. Meanwhile Banshees are also immune to the venom's effects, as seen with Lydia Martin. It also has no effect on the hosts of Hellhounds, as Jordan Parrish burned Tracy's venom when she attempted to sting him with it. 
== History ==
=== Season 2 ===
In "Abomination," the Kanima paralyzed Derek Hale with its venom, leading Stiles to rescue him instead. The two fled to the pool but the Kanima (who shared Matt's fear of water at the time) circled around them, waiting for them to come out. Fortunately, Scott McCall ended up saving his best friend and mentor from the Kanima; however it's venom remained on the stard of broken glass. After the fight, Derek identified the shape-shifter as a Kanima. 
In "Venomous," Derek used the leftover venom from the night the Kanima attacked Derek and Stiles to test Jackson. Erica and Isaac kidnapped him and brought him to Derek, who always thought Jackson was a snake. The werewolf Alpha used the venom on the lacrosse jock but Jackson was affected by is paralytic effects. Afterwards Derek suspected Jackson's ex-girlfriend and Derek's eventual ally Lydia Martin to be the Kanima because she was the other person (besides Scott McCall) who Peter Hale bit. During their lab experiment, Scott and Stiles realized that Isaac and Erica planned to administer the Kanima venom on Lydia through an edible crystal. However, much to the surprise of the Werewolves, Allison and Stiles, Lydia didn't fall to the paralytic effects of the venom, and all but confirmed Derek's suspicions. However, unknown to Derek at the time, Lydia remained unaffected by the Kanima's poisonin because of her Banshee heritage.   Due to the overwhelming nature of Jackson and Lydia reconciling and the re-consummating their relationship, Jackson's heart rate went up and he transformed into the Kanima. Allison came up to Scott's room and saw the Kanima venom on the window sill and alerting her of the creature's presence.  Allison, knowing that the werewolves would be able to catch her arrows like Scott did, saw the venom on Scott's window sill. She took some of the venom coated her arrow with it. Erica cornered the young huntress in Scott's room and threatened to steal Allison's boyfriend. Agitated, Allison shot at Erica and as the huntress anticipated, the she-wolf caught the arrow in her hands. Erica didn't notice the arrow was coated with Kanima venom until she saw it on her fingers. The paralytic affected Erica rather quickly and to her advantage, Allison mocked her rival. When Scott arrived at the scene, he threw
