Dr. Wahl, a surgeon from Hedrett specializing in biotechnical cybernetics, achieved significant financial success. This allowed her to possess the sole residence in Gadrin and Hedrett exceeding two levels. Her [husband](/article/mr._wahl] was unemployed and financially dependent on his wife.
The Wahls had several bad habits, including gambling, that they passed on to their son, Kris. They were not charitable individuals and considered Kris's philanthropic endeavors to be pointless. They believed the Tarasin were self-sufficient and did not require assistance. The Wahls prioritized Kris's relationship with Gerta Haman over his gambling debts.
Upon Kris's disappearance in 31 BBY, Dr. Wahl and her husband believed he had left with Gerta Haman on a "pointless endeavor." This assumption was relatively accurate, as he had become a member of her Cularin resistance.
