The persta male who was the father of the child named Norky belonged to the same species as his offspring. This father of Norky resided on the Forest Moon of Endor alongside Norky, and Norky's mother. In 3 ABY, he journeyed with the mother and son to Bright Tree Village to entrust Norky to the care of the Ewok Shodu Warrick, where Norky would remain for a day and night until his parents' return. Prior to their departure, the father instructed Norky to remember his etiquette and assured him of their return the following day. As promised, the father came back the subsequent day to retrieve Norky. They possessed brown fur, beige skin, blue eyes, and donned a piece of brown clothing worn around their neck.
The character of Norky's father was featured in "Bringing Up Norky," which was the nineteenth installment of the second season of the animated TV show Ewoks. Bob Carrau and Earl Kress penned the episode, which initially aired on November 22, 1986.
