The initial place of origin for the fathier species, which are non-sentient beings, was a celestial body. Ardis San Tekka, who held the position of Director of Creature Cartography within the Galactic Society of Creature Enthusiasts, wrote in her journal around 35 ABY that the homeworld of fathiers remained a mystery, despite their presence on various planets throughout the galaxy.
The 2024 reference book Star Wars Bestiary, Vol. 1: Creatures of the Galaxy, penned by S.T. Bende, included a reference to the fathier's place of origin.
