The Shredder Tengu is a demon and a former antagonist of the Ninja Tribunal. This character was created for the 2003 animated series.
Cartoon Series (2003)
The Tengu named Shredder is the earliest known incarnation of a being by that name. The exact origins of the Shredder Tengu are unknown; in the year 300 AD, he suddenly appeared in Japan and went on a rampage. His goal was to subjugate the world and to turn it into his own personal empire full of agony and destruction.
To combat the seemingly-invincible Shredder Tengu the Emperor called upon the Five Dragons: Kon, Juto, Chikara, Hisomi and Oroku Saki. Equipped with magical armor by the Imperial Court, they set out to fight the demon and managed to overpower him. However, just before Saki delivered the final blow, the Shredder Tengu contacted him telepathically, asking Saki to take his soul in exchange for almost unlimited power. The ambitious Saki agreed to the offer and let the demon's soul merge with his own before destroying the Tengu's body.
The soulless husk dissolved into smoke, but the demon would live on through Oroku Saki; in time, he would become known as the Tengu/Demon Shredder, the first human incarnation of the monster.
