Shoshopu has some critters...
Loloran the Mandragora
Shoshopu bought some mandrake seeds from a qiqirn and one of them turned out to be a mandragora seed. Oops! She managed to talk Fyrilsunn into letting them keep it once it was grown. Eventually it sprouted a bright pink flower, much to Shoshopu's delight and no one else's. Loloran is a lot of fun to emote. Shoshopu calls Loloran a she, but outside of Shopu's dialogue I always refer to it as "it". I love describing its tuberous eyes and vegetable body parts, and because it's so top-heavy it often falls over and just bounces across the floor on its head like an apple or something. Very fun.
Popoto the Adamantoise (and others)
Popoto is the youngest adamantoise of her family's herd. She hatched the same day Shoshopu was born, in the Golden Bazaar in 1555. Shopu's family are the traditional nomad types and they live in tents affixed to the tortoises' shells! Popoto's not big enough to live on yet, but she's big enough to ride. The rest of the tortoises live in the Thanalan desert with Shopu's parents and her oldest brother.
Wannmaga the Puppy
Fyrilsunn and Merlgeim found a stray pup one day, and Merlgeim absolutely insisted that they keep her. The two of them take turns dog-sitting, which means Shopu gets to help dog-sit whenever it's Fyrilsunn's turn. She's uselessly affectionate with strangers and is constantly hungry, like a good puppy should be.
Haipiri
Haipiri was a small, pale, dusty-brown chocobo that Shopu acquired some time after taking up adventuring in La Noscea. He has been AWOL ever since an IC encounter with the A-Rank, Marraco, one-shot him and Shoshopu both. Shopu just barely survived the encounter but I haven't yet decided her chocobo's fate. He might have died from his injuries, or he might have fled from battle and wandered his way to the stables of Revenant's Toll, where he would still be. Shopu hasn't been to Mor Dhona since it happened over a year ago.
