(" The Tell"), (" Heart Monitor"), (" Night School"), (" Lunatic") Jackson Whittemore became very pale and sickly-looking throughout his time being poisoned by the aforementioned wolfsbane exposure, and experienced a number of hallucinations and weakness before he was treated for the infection.Unbeknownst to either Derek or Jackson Whittemore, Derek exposed Jackson to the same wolfsbane when he accidentally clawed the back of the human's neck during a tense discussion at school, as Derek presumably had wolfsbane-laced blood on his fingers.He healed himself of this infection by taking the same wolfsbane and burning it to ash before packing the ash into his bullet wound, causing him a great deal of pain until his body healed itself. Before he was able to cure himself, Derek vomited a large amount of black blood before passing out on the floor. As time went on, his symptoms only became worse, and he informed Stiles Stilinski that if the wolfsbane reached his heart, he would die, nearly forcing him to cut off his arm to prevent this from happening. He also became weak, dizzy, and lightheaded, preventing him from feeling as though he could defend himself from attackers. As a result, the wound would not heal as it normally would and eventually began to fester, becoming irritated and poisoning his blood to the point where it turned black.

Wolfsbane and the flower moon series#
The first instance of wolfsbane being seen in the series was the purple variety in plant form, which was used by Derek Hale to keep his sister Laura Hale's corpse in her full-wolf form rather than her human form in hopes that he would not be blamed for her murder.So far, all species of wolfsbane introduced have worked as a poison in one way or another, though whether its effects were temporary or long-lasting depended on how it was administered and the specific type and dosage. The Dread Doctors were also shown to use a modified black liquid said to be wolfsbane which only weakens the werecreature for as long as they are given it intravenously, and then it wears off with no after-effects, essentially being used as a sedative.

Yellow wolfsbane, also known as Aconitum anthora is far less common, as it was described as being very rare and very expensive. The blue and purple varieties of wolfsbane are most commonly seen within the show. There have been multiple species of wolfsbane introduced in the series, some of which has a specific name (such as Aconit Napel Bleu Nordique which translates to Nordic Blue Monkshood, a favorite of the Argent Hunters) and some of which is identified solely by its color (for example, purple, blue, and yellow wolfsbane, as well as the modified black wolfsbane created by the Dread Doctors).
