Dr. Taylor Glade, better known by their online handle of EngiSonic, is an amateur squid researcher and former resident of Alterna who helps edit Inkipedia in their spare time. They are best known for being part of the programming team responsible for the upkeep of O.R.C.A. between 2132 and 2135.

Early Life
Taylor Glade was born on November 18, 211▌ in the underground settlement of Alterna. Due to damages to Alterna's systems in the Collapse, most data on their life prior to entering the workforce has been lost; remaining fragments simply describe their upbringing as "unremarkable."

Career
In 2130, Glade entered Alterna's apprenticeship program under Dr. Ezra Lane. In 2132, they were appointed to the team responsible for upkeep and updating of O.R.C.A., a position they stayed in until 2135.

Collapse of Alterna
On May 28, 2138, a propulsion test taking place at the Alterna Space Center caused a catastrophic overload in the liquid crystals lining the roof of Alterna, causing a cascading series of cave-ins and mechanical failures that utterly destroyed most of the underground civilization. In the end, only a few hundred humans survived the initial catastrophe, though most died in the following days due to a lack of infrastructure.
