Toski is a squirrel from Kaldheim. Toski is a small Cosmos monster that scampers about the branches of the World Tree, delivering news across the many realms of Kaldheim and being the messenger of the gods.[1][2]
History
Toski is a mischievous squirrel who serves as a messenger for Esika, the god of the World Tree. Though he is tiny (especially compared with some of the other Cosmos monsters), he scampers with unbelievable speed along the World Tree to carry messages between realms. His small size allows him to observe events in all the realms and prize out secrets which he then carries back to Esika. Toski doesn't speak. He and Esika communicate by a mysterious form of telepathy, ensuring that the secrets Toski brings to the god remain exactly that.[3]
Trivia
- Inspired by Ratatoskr a squirrel that in ancient Nordic mythology runs by the Tree of the World Yggdrasil, carrying insult messages exchanged by an eagle (who lives on top of the tree) and Níðhöggr (who lives between the roots).
- Toski does not have one of his forelegs which is replaced by a kind of "prosthesis", which may be a reference to the one-hand god Týr.
