* Devlin Stone was created for the [[MechWarrior: Dark Age]] setting, where he was introduced as a largely absent messianic figure whose return was eagerly awaited. His character was subsequently retroactively fleshed out as the [[Jihad era]] that preceded the [[Dark Age era]] was explored in greater detail for [[Classic BattleTech]].

* In the February 20, 2021 [https://bg.battletech.com/forums/general-discussion/hour-of-the-wolf-discussion-part-2-after-hour-of-the-wolf/msg1698955/#msg1698955 "Hour of the Wolf" AMA] BattleTech Art Director [[Brent Evans]], who had worked on the MWDA line and later, after the MWDA and CBT lines had merged back into one, had served as [[BattleTech Line Developer]] for a time, said that the original plan for the Devlin Stone character when he was created for MWDA had been that he would have suffered from "freeze burn" altering his mind after waking from cryostasis, and turn into the setting's main villain. The battle for Terra would have come down to [[Alaric Ward]] vs. Devlin Stone. However, as the storyline was plotted out the team had doubts whether that was even a story worth telling, and changed the story to how it played out. In Evans's words, having the Republic of the Sphere crumble around Devlin Stone while he was still alive to witness it was one of the darkest and most mature storylines in BattleTech.
