Ikobewati

Ikobewati is a creature from another dimension. He says that in his world he was a great scientist, the creator of the scrambler device that allows travel between dimensions (among many other things), but this point is quite doubtful given the little expertise demonstrated by the subject. After his first trip to our dimension, Ikobewati returned to his world, but it didn't take long for him to return. He says that for scientific reasons, but it is most likely that he had problems with the authorities of his world for having appropriated the scrambler illegally. Ikobewati is definitely not a villain, and he always seems to have benevolent intentions, but his poor mastery of the scrambler and his distorted vision of reality (due to being a creature from another dimension or who knows if it is a side effect of the scrambler itself) make him a real nuisance for the paranormal heroes of our world. 

POWERS & WEAPONS 

The scrambler device that Ikobewati wears on his chest causes distortions in reality, it can alter reality. Example: Ikobewati was able to move Bald Peak several times. Another time he materialized a black panther and a giraffe, but with their heads swapped (the panther's head on the giraffe's body and vice versa). On another occasion he was able to transform a fairly large area into an abstract version of itself. Ikobewati was also able to split his own body into sections without suffering the slightest damage (although he did so completely unintentionally). Theoretically, if Ikobewati mastered the scrambler he would be able to perform any feat imaginable. However, on occasions he has been able to obtain a result according to his wishes, such as when he made the Delsons, a charming elderly couple, rejuvenate by 40 years in payment for the inconvenience he had caused them.
