235207.28: Raj Blueheart was born in Malaysia, Earth, where his father was stationed while awaiting transfer to the company's new headquarters on Luna.
2352 - 2362: Raj becomes a voracious reader even from a very young age. He attended kindergarten in 2358, then primary school from 2359 to 2362 in Malaysia before relocating to Luna.
2362 - 2371: Late primary school to completion of secondary school on Luna were years filled with mixed emotions for young Raj. Never one to fancy sports, he was often bullied by the jocks, and teased by fellow classmates whenever he emerged top of his class in tests. While the teasing only provided him with an impetus to study harder and aim high, the bullying scarred him for life. It left him with a low self-esteem and an aversion to sports and games.
2372 - 2377: Medical school was a breeze for him, but only academically. Socially, he was an outcast, but not by choice. He was in the midst of discovering his sexuality and this proved to be a curse in a close-knit, conservative community in which he lived. It was also a troubling time when he was ostracized for championing equality for all. Needless to say, the small Earth community on Luna in those days was not yet prepared for egalitarianism. This further squashed Raj's self-esteem and psyche, making him reserved and aloof. On the other hand, he dug deeper into the solace his books and hobbies provided.
2378 - 2384:
