Talbot Molossus's homeworld

Part of Talbot Molossus's fondness for the Hydrant derived from him being “one of the few things [Molossus had] kept from his homeworld”. (PROSE: Good Crieff: The Tribulations of the Scottish Division (2024 reedit))

Behind the scenes

The original open-source bio for Talbot Molossus describes him as originating from “the Sirrus system” (possibly a typo for, or allusion to, Sirius, often called the Dog Star). It does not, however, specify a name for his planet.

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, 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 his 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.
