The eagle is named Hresvelgr and is one of the two beings Ratatoskr would incite fights between with message delivery. Nidhoggr the evil wyrm being the other being.

For those curious about the eagle earlier in the topic.

That's a different being from the Eagle in Yggdrasil. Hersvelgr is actually a Giant in the form of an Eagle, and sits in the northern edge of the heavens, according to the Poetic Edda.

Huh, thought it was a eagle. Cause otherwise I only know of Vidofnir a chicken who has a glow about it who sits on Yggdrasil.

Now I want to see a Nidhogg profile. Hopefully KC will keep up on the norse monsters.
