Ray Gladstone was born a Nepleslian, and lived much of his life on Nepleslia. His early life consisted of working on vehicles for his father's auto shop business, as well as tinkering with the household machinery. In Ray's younger years he got deep into the Nepleslian airbike circuit, working as a crew chief for several notable, but now dead racers. After the Gangs took over the circuit, Ray returned to cars, and discovered that his vast technical knowledge helped him to design them as well as fix them. Ray went back to work with his father, but, when the Elysian plague hit it took Ray's mother and Father, and nearly killed him, but he was able to switch to a Geshrin body in time. Years after taking over his father's shop, in which he regularly fixed machines for various small-time pirates, one of his Pirate friends told him she was going legitimate, and asked for his assistance in starting a project. The tiny, pixie-like woman proved very convincing , and, in the end, right, and in YE 29, Ray Gladstone, Aerin Tatst, and Rob Robertson the Third created Origin Industries.

After more than 15 years at the helm of Origin Motor Corporation, and approaching his mid-sixties, Ray Gladstone felt that it was time to retire, as his career at Origin had set him up to take it easy for his life.
