I'm one of them.

Still kept feeling like the face or ears need something (fluff in ears?) but anyway This little creature is actually a marsupial and not a monkey but the name stuck for me. It developed a barb on it's tail that it uses to stun (not kill) other creatures that live high up in the treetops alongside it. It is a night creature and the sting is painless. It wraps its tail around them to keep them from dropping out of the trees. It is of course carnivorous.

Scowling puzzlements plague the mind.

an earth dragon (also aquatic) the front legs were developed for digging and catching prey while the external ribcage growth is used for movement (much like a snake uses theirs only external so somewhat more leg-like) The tail can be used to help facilitate swimming when needed. The creature uses more ultrasonic and infrared senses than actual vision or hearing.

maybe a bit genericus but I am uber tired after a long day and I kept doodling something out til I came up with this :) She is the queen of a frozen land.
