In Xanathar's Guide to Everything on page 59, there is an image of a war mage with some kind of creature on his shoulders. The creature looks vaguely like a Ki-Rin to me, but since Ki-Rins are creature size Huge, I believe we can rule that out.
Either way, can anyone tell me what kind of creature is depicted here? I'm pretty sure it's not a creature that has been released for 5th edition so far, so experience with previous versions is probably required.

Either way, what I wanted to clarify is that all true giants in 5e are size "huge" (with some non-true giants being merely large, such as trolls). Either way, they're not gargantuan, and a gargantuan giant would probably have to make his own clothes or commission them somewhere ^^

It is indeed a Ki-rin
Jeremy Crawford has stated in a tweet as a response to someone posing this same question:
Casey White @CaseyDaWhite
@mikemearls @JeremyECrawford Not sure who to ask, but what is the familiar sitting on the War Mage's shoulder? (Pg 59 of Xanathar's) I've been pouring over the monsters and can't find anything similar.
Jeremy Crawford @JeremyECrawford
The war wizard in Xanathar's Guide to Everything has a special companion: a baby ki-rin! #DnD
Yes, they are normally huge but this is a baby one hence the smaller size.
As a small bonus, note how Mike Mearls was also unsure what the creature was prompting Jeremy Crawford to once again clarify:
Mike Mearls @mikemearls (Replying to @CaseyDaWhite @JeremyECrawford)
Good question - we don’t know! In the art review, we thought it looked really interesting, so we didn’t ask for a change. I suspect it’ll be a critter added to the game at some point.

Of course, the war mage depicted could be a gargantuan giant.

@DaleM nah, that's not realistic, he's dressed. Where the hell would he get XXXXXXXXXXXXL-sized clothes?

I don’t want to play in your campaign with all those naked giants

@DaleM yeah, I tried to edit my comment later as I realized it's somewhat incomplete, but it was past the 5-minute-limit and I didn't want to write a second comment. Either way, what I wanted to clarify is that all true giants in 5e are size "huge" (with some non-true giants being merely large, such as trolls). Either way, they're not gargantuan, and a gargantuan giant would probably have to make his own clothes or commission them somewhere ^^
