'''Thoughtful''' was a male [[NightWings|NightWing]] [[Dragonets|dragonet]] who appears in ''[[Darkstalker (Legends)]]''. He wears silver wires around his horns that hangs circles of glass in front of each of his eyes (spectacles), and is described by [[Clearsight]] as being handsome, but with a kind and worried aura. He is first seen stacking scrolls at the game pavilion during [[Queen Vigilance|Queen Vigilance's]] Glass Jubilee. [[Listener]] had a crush on him, but Clearsight saw that he was destined to be with [[Whiteout]], [[King Darkstalker|Darkstalker's]] sister. He was said to have a similar way of thinking to Whiteout, which leads her to this conclusion.

* Since Darkstalker did not have any dragonets, all NightWing [[Animus Dragons|animus dragons]] are descended from Whiteout and Thoughtful. This means that he is an ancestor of [[Stonemover]] and [[Princess Sunny]].

* The circles of glass in front of Thoughtful's eyes most likely act as glasses, which shows him as the first near-sighted dragon mentioned in the series that isn't blind and has something to help him see, also proving that NightWings were very scientifically advanced before fleeing from the Old NightWing Kingdom.

* Unlike most dragons, Thoughtful seems to know what Whiteout means when she talks. This could mean that Thoughtful has a very powerful mind-reading power, as he is able to talk to Whiteout very successfully, while Darkstalker, Whiteout's brother, could only see her thoughts in color. Either that, or he simply understands her very well.

* He is the first dragon that is shown to have glasses, the others being [[Lady Scarab]], [[Cricket]] and [[Malachite]].
