Vedrfolnir (also spelled Veðrfölnir, Vedfolnir or Vethrfolnir) is a hawk who sits on top of an unnamed eagle that lives at the top of the world tree, Yggdrasil. It flaps its wings to create windstorms causing the branches to rip, shake, and cause devastation (high winds, earthquakes and storms) throughout the Nine Worlds. Ratatosk constantly delivers insults to him to keep him angry and try to destroy the tree faster than Nidhogg at the roots.
