Thievul appears to be based on the {{wp|red fox}}, possibly borrowing patterns from the {{wp|cross fox}}, a variation of the red fox. Its facial features and moustache-like whiskers also bear a resemblance to stereotypical depictions of thieves and burglars, as well as the {{wp|gentleman thief}} trope. Its front legs resemble gloves, which thieves and burglars would wear. Thievul's relationship with {{p|Boltund}} may be a reference to {{wp|fox hunting}}, where red foxes were hunted by English foxhounds, which Boltund appears to be based on. | Thievul appears to be based on the {{wp|red fox}}, possibly borrowing patterns from the {{wp|cross fox}}, a variation of the red fox.
