Shamate is the main antagonist of Nobita Meets the Masked Queen. She is a sorceress of the so-called "Mask Tribe".
Story[]
After failing in her shamanistic rituals, Shamate was banished from her village and wandered through the wilderness. There, she discovered Shizuka, who had been sent back in time due to a malfunctioning time machine and had lost consciousness. She also found Momotaro Jirushi's Millet Dumplings and Forgetting Flower in Nobita's backpack and conducted some experiments to examine their uses.
Shizuka, sent to the past, had struck her head due to the time machine malfunction and was in a state of confusion, having lost her memory and consciousness. Taking advantage of Shizuka's amnesia, Shamate deceived her, trained her, and made her the leader of the Mask Tribe, known as the "Red Mask," while Shamate disguised herself as an adviser to the Red Mask. Disguised as the Red Mask's adviser, Shamate began her plan to act as a god using the millet dumplings. As a result, the Mask Tribe became corrupted under the rule of the Red Mask and Shamate, causing problems for Mig and her tribe.
During this time, Nobita and his friends arrived to search for Shizuka and befriended Mig and her tribe. After Nobita and Doraemon fell into a trap and were captured, Shamate revealed herself and tried to offer them as a sacrifice to a sabre-toothed tiger. However, Gian, Suneo, and Mig with her tribe appeared to rescue Nobita and Doraemon, and they pursued Shamate, who had taken the Red Mask, to a place called the "Room of Gods."
In the Room of Gods, Shamate revealed the stash of millet dumplings and Forgetting Flowers to Nobita and Doraemon while explaining her plan. She then unmasked the Red Mask, revealing Shizuka's face, and ordered her to hunt Nobita and Doraemon. During this, Nobita showed Shizuka the necklace that Mig had given him earlier, helping Shizuka remember the promise she had made to him. Enraged, Shamate shouted, "The Red Mask is mine!" and lunged to kill Nobita, but Shizuka, crying, stepped in and took the attack for him. Suddenly, the necklace around Shizuka's neck emitted a dazzling green light that enveloped the surrounding area.
After the incident, Doraemon used the Forgetting Flower to temporarily make Shamate forget and caused her to apologize to the Mask Tribe for deceiving them.
