A submission to the Exalted Ink Monkeys art project, for the "Allies, Familiars, & Companions" chapter. An Exalt hangs out with his menagerie of.. well.. like the title says...
From the lower-left in counter-clockwise rotation we have...
Chib-Chib: Unofficial creation. The Chib-Chibs were a creation for my own Exalted campaign. Originally created as adorable pastal-colored magical teddybear-like things to staff a First Age amusement park, the Chib-Chibs have long since gone feral and now rule a jungle enclave decorated with jaguar pelts and human skulls. Think of incredibly vicious murderous Care Bears. Who still have an inborn loyalty to Celestial Exalted.
Ink Monkeys: Official creation. A species of monkeys that hunger for the blood of sorcerers. Can often be found hunting down mortal thamaturgists and wise men and luring them into complicated traps so they can crack their bones and suck their eyes. So adorably tiny!
Chillkin: Official CreationAdorable brightly colored monkey creatures, the Chillkin were created to be the playmates of Solars' children during the First Age. The magic gem in their foreheads allowed them to turn the imaginary playmates of their charges real. Then the Usurpation happened, and all those little kids were murdered most savagly by the Dragonbloods. Those Chillkins that survived were left with gems filled with the dying terrors and nightmares of their charges,a nd driven quite insane. Now they hide in the deep woods, springing forth the nightmares of long-dead children on those who disturb them.
Simhata: Official creation. The Simhata are the legendary lion-stallion steeds of the Exalted! Immune to the elemental auras of the Dragonblood, and able to imprint instantly on any Celestial Exalted who's anima flares in their presence, these steeds are fast, hearty, and eat their enemies with savage fangs.
Proto-Puma-Prime: Official Creation: The Primordials created 'blue print/prototype' creatures for nearly all species in creation. One such behamoth was Proto Puma, the 30-foot tall savage wild-cat archetype. After dying saving the life of a First Age Solar, he was rebuilt with heavy magitech mechanisms into Proto-Puma-Prime! He still fights for truth, justice, and the memory of his dead friend, waiting for the day that the Solar is reborn and they can ride forth in battle together again!
The Rathas Flying Viper: Original Creation. Brightly colored serpents with butterfly wings, the Rathas Flying Vipers are prized as pets and companions, despite their tendency of spiting highly causic acid at anyone who slightly startles them or their owner.
Loadstar: Official Creation. A giant mobel platform grown/built to endure the harsh weather of the far North, Loadstar is capable of carrying up to six adults on his back for weeks at a time across the frozen tundras. He also comes equipped with a fully loaded sensor bay in his tail, and the personality of a efficious British butler.
Great Horned Hunter: Official creation. These massive beasts stalk the frozen north, and can occasionally be domesticated by skilled mortals or Exalts who want a massive horned deathcat at their beck and call.
Firemut: Whether the result of a First Age breeding program, or horny fire elementals, the Firemuts are a rare godblooded species that breeds true, not loosing their touch of godhood through successive generations. Friendly, energetic, and slightly dopy, Firemuts are prized by Dragonbloods who've already built all their homes to be fireproof.

I had far too much fun making this one. :) So many cute and fluffy death machines!
