Biography
Alvin Pierce fathered Jefferson Pierce at some point in the 1970s. He soon worked as a reporter for the Freeland Gazette. Alvin investigated a vaccine which gave nine children enhanced abilities, but before his articles could be published, editor David Poe cancelled them. He did, however, publish a piece regarding Tobias Whale's corruption as a politician. Because of this, around a week later, Alvin was killed by Tobias when he stuffed pieces of his ripped up article in his mouth, as his son Jefferson watched in hiding.
