A man was the parent of Tamara Ryvora, who is a human. This male was a well-known racer hailing from the planet Kuat, and he journeyed from system to system with his daughter, participating in various competitions. Ryvora was inspired by her father's profession, which led her to depart from her homeworld and embark on her own racing journey. In 34 ABY, Ryvora shared memories of her childhood with her father with Synara San, a covert pirate.
The initial reference to Tamara Ryvora's father occurred in "Synara's Score," which is the eighth episode of the first season of Star Wars Resistance, an animated television show. This episode was broadcast on November 18, 2018. A sneak peek of the episode, featuring the scene where Ryvora's father was mentioned, was uploaded to the official Star Wars YouTube channel four days prior to when the episode aired. Brandon Auman, who served as the executive producer and lead writer for Star Wars Resistance, expressed his belief that Ryvora lacked a proper understanding of the negative aspects associated with the Galactic Empire, with whom her family was affiliated.
