Shimabuku[1] was the leader of the ancient Ibandi Empire, located in present day Tangalla, and powerful sorceror who imprisoned The Undying One in the Moaning Stones of Tangalla. He is also the ancestor of Winston Zeddemore.

History[]

6000 years ago, Shimabuku's people were ruled by the Undying One.[2] After the war between gods left the Undying One exhausted, Shimabuku seized the opportunity and bound the demon to the Moaning Stones.[3][4] He became known as the greatest chieftain of the ancient Ibandi Empire.[5]

Winston learned that he is the only one who can return The Undying One to his prison because he is a reincarnation and direct descendant of Shimabuku.[6][7] After an initial disbelief Winston accepted the truth about his identity transforming into Shimabuku: he succeeded in re-imprisoning the demon and the stones were separated so that the demon would never return. After Egon shattered the Moaning Stones, Shimabuku vanished and Winston returned to normal, a little more accepting of his past.
