Umbrella Pharmaceuticals geneticist Dr. Alexander Ashford, 6th Earl Ashford successfully uses DNA extracted from his ancestor, Veronica Ashford, 1st Countess Ashford, to create a zygotic clone which he genetically-modifies further before implanting within a surrogate mother. An unintended side-effect of the process leads to two fraternal twins being born, a girl named Alexia and a boy named Alfred.
