An engineer of no particular affiliation, Temporary Impulse arrived in the Keter System on Muse IX. If you ask her, she came here to check out employment opportunities on Mytene.

[Note: Temporary Impulse's name is a bit of an, er, temporary impulse. She has already gone by Transient Impulse and is likely to keep changing the adjective whenever she thinks of another one she likes better that day.]
