Notably, the original open-source bios for the Hydrant and Talbot depicted the Hydrant as a work of Earth technology, built for Talbot by human scientists as a robot guide to help him navigate terrestrial society — in contrast to the backstory given for the [[925th Universe]] version of the character in the 2024 reedit of [[PROSE]]: ''[[Good Crieff - The Tribulations of the Scottish Division (short story)|Good Crieff - The Tribulations of the Scottish Division]]'', where it is instead revealed that part of the 925th Universe's Talbot's fondness for the Hydrant derives from him being one of the things he has left of [[Talbot Molossus's homeworld|their shared homeworld]]. Additionally, the bio depicts Molossus as an alien ambassador sent to Earth as a representative; there is no suggestion that his homeworld has been destroyed or otherwise become inaccessible to him. | |||
