Who was Ratatoskr?

Ratatoskr was a small squirrel in Norse mythology. He lived in the trunk of Yggdrasil with some other creatures. Those Yggdrasil dwellers were an eagle Veðrfölnir, the serpent-like dragon Nidhogg, four stags, and Ratatoskr the squirrel. Everyone contributed a part whether big or small in offering the agony to the Yggdrasil.

Ratatoskr was supposed to run through the tree of Yggdrasil during the day. Because Ratatoskr was the message deliverer of the eagle and the dragon living in Yggdrasil Tree of Life. The message between the two was nothing but insult. The two never seemed to stop hating each other and the"bad habit" of exchanging the insulting message of Ratatoskr stirred up the deeper hatred among the two. Ratatoskr seemed to enjoy his job so much because he never showed a trace of retirement. He loved gossip and he found his pleasure in seeing the animosity between Veðrfölnir and Nidhogg grow up.
