Ratatoskr / messenger, is named after a creature in the nordic mytology. A squirrel who runs up and down the world tree Yggdrasil to carry messages between the un named eagle in the top, and the angry dragon Nidhögg under the root. Ratatoskr has a never ending task to travle the world tree from root to top and back... he needs a motor.
