Emma Frost's early life
Emma Frost grew up in the Snow Valley, Massachusetts where she attended the Snow Valley School for girls. During her time at the school her powers began to manifest, first thought to be headaches and then into basic telepathy, this had a massive affect on her causing her to pass out, it wouldst be until she went to college that she would understand her powers with the help of Astrid Bloom.While Emma was at the Snow Valley School for girls alot of things happened to Emma; She developed a crush on her Teacher and mentor Ian Kendall, Her powers began to manifest, She discovered her fathers affair while in the south of France, her brother became a drug addict after their father had Christian's boyfriend arrested and subsequently tried to commit suicide (which Emma saw) he was then institutionalized which is when Emma decided that this was enough and left the family for good, or so she thought.
After Emma left the family she went to work in Boston to make it on her own however, this didn't last long as she became involved with a man named Troy Killkelly, whom she discovered was involved with the Boston Mob, so after she tells him about her telepathic powers they scam a few Casino's and begin to get some money to pay the mob off. However, the mob finds out that Emma is from the Frost Family and decide to take advantage and extort money out of Winston Frost, at first this doesnt work until they send a lock of Emma's hair, which Adrienne confirms to be real, as well as other things which causes Winston the pay them off for the release of his daughter. When Emma realizes that Lucien, the mobs leader, is going to kill them all she plants doubts in their minds which ends in a blood bath and a result of this is Troy is killed. Emma then takes the small fortune to make it on her own where she enrolls at Empire state university.
After using the money gained from being the Boston Mobs hostage Emma enrolls at Empire State University where her powers have begun to develop more so. It is here that she meets Astrid Bloom, who is also a telepath and a skilled one at that. Emma and Astrid become friends and Astrid teaches Emma about the use of her powers and what she can do with them. It's not until Astrid begins to make things happen with Emma's friends that they have a psychic battle, this being Emma's first offensive use of her new power. During the psychic fight Astrid believes that she has gotten Emma beat but what Astrid didn't count on was Emma Frost's ruthlessness and underhanded ways. During the fight Emma had been on an "express tour of her psyche" and learned everything Astrid knew, this is also where some of Astrids personality traits bled through into Emma's consciousness for example her bitterness towards baseline humans. From here Emma went on to join the Hellfire Club, as the White Queen.
Emma Frost's Move from the Hellfire Club to the X-Men
Emma was first encountered by the X-Men as the White Queen of Inner Circle of the prestigious Hellfire Club. She tried to forcibly recruit Kitty Pryde, and was opposed by the X-Men. Though initially triumphant, the X-Men eventually defeated her. She and the mutant students of hers , the Hellions, would encounter the X-Men many times, and almost always as enemies.
Her time with the Hellfire Club ended when it was attacked by a mad time traveler named Trevor Fitzroy. In the ensuing incident which also involved the X-Men, most of the Hellions were killed, and Emma was sent into a coma. Her body was kept at Xavier’s till the time when an accident ultimately resulted in her revival.
With the circumstances of her incapacitation, and with closer ties to the Xavier Institute, she ceased to become openly antagonistic to Xavier and the X-Men. Together with Banshee, she presided over the education and training of a new batch of students, called Generation X. The Academy and Generation X eventually ceased to be as a result of a plot hatched by Emma’s own sister, Adrienne. Though the school closed, Emma did gain a measure of revenge by killing Adrienne.
After this, she went on to teach on the mutant-dominated island nation of Genosha. During the infamous Sentinel Genocide of the island’s inhabitants, Emma managed to survive by virtue of her secondary mutation manifesting, allowing her to take on a near-invulnerable diamond form.
She found herself as one of the instructors at Xavier’s, where she developed a close relationship with X-Men founding member Cyclops. This would evolve into a secretive telepathic affair between the two, helped along by an incident where Cyclops temporarily became possessed by Apocalypse. Jean’s discovery of this would distance her own relationship with Scott, while Emma would only grow closer to the mutant leader.
After Jean’s latest death at the hands of Xorn/ Magneto, Emma began an open romantic relationship with Scott, becoming co-headmaster of the newly rebuilt Xavier Institute.
Dark Reign
After Norman Osborn was appointed as the USA's top cop, he immediately convened a group of supposedly like-minded individuals (later dubbed the Cabal) to consolidate his grip on power. Emma joined the group consisting of Norman, Namor, Victor von Doom, Loki, and the Hood after being plagued with nightmares of the time when she was unable to help Kitty Pryde.Following a series of pro- versus anti-mutant protests and riots instigated by Simon Trask in San Francisco, Emma was tasked by Norman Osborn to lead a civil peacekeeping group of X-Men, one sanctioned by himself. She was given a black costume and was given command over Wolverine's son Daken, Weapon Omega, Mimic, and the duo of Cloak and Dagger. Emma brought a final element to the team, Namor, with whom she had previously shared a romantic relationship with prior to her time with the X-Men. Though not an official member of her team, a person appearing to be none other than Prof. Xavier served as the team's spokesman and moral backup. Emma easily saw through the ploy (in the process claiming that she was an omega-level telepath) and the "professor" was revealed to be Mystique, who was working with Osborn only because they had injected explosive nanobots into her bloodstream.
Emma's first sortie with the team occurred when she arrested a group of mutant vandals led by her own formerly favorite student, Hellion. Even at that early stage, tensions already arose, particularly when Daken almost did a lethal attack to one of the other mutant rioters. Emma prevented any fatalities, and the prisoners were brought in.
While more tensions rose between the Avengers and the new X-Men team, enhanced by the aggression of Daken and Hawkeye, Emma put emphasis that she would only continue to be a party to this strategy of Osborn's if all the mutants were treated humanely. She insisted on touring the facility to see how the prisoners were being treated. She is then contacted, weakly, by Prof-X, and informs her that he and Hank are being kept prisoner there. He also tells her that the Omega Chair developed by the Dark Beast has horrible side effects, and that Osborn isn't telling her everything. Emma then discovers that the presence of Hank and Prof-X are being kept secret from her using hologram projectors. Remaining in diamond form for protection, and unable to speak telepathically, she verbally reasures the Professor that she believes him, and that she would make sure everything would be all right.
Over the next several days, she then took her team of X-Men around San Francisco, not only stopping Trask and his human-conversion biosentinels, but also clearing up the residual riots and rounding up the remaining mutants from the streets. Her motives come into greater doubt when she and Namor stand idly by when they witness the Dark Beast using his Omega Machine to torture and power drain the captives, while Cloak and Dagger can barely look on.
However, Emma's true motivations and interests behind her recent actions are revealed when, after another session draining Henry McCoy with the machine, Dark Beast and Weapon Omega discover that all the mutant captives had disappeared. They discover that Mindee Cuckoo had allowed herself to get arrested just so she could lead the rest of the X-Men there. Teleporting in and out via Magik's portals, X-Force had freed the prisoners. After raising the alarm, Emma leads Osborn's X-Men to stop X-Force, then surprises everyone by betraying her own team. Daken and Mimic are taken down in the process, and Emma takes Cloak, Dagger and Namor with her and X-Force to rejoin the rest of the mutants.
Emma then rejoins Scott with the rest of the mutant community and their sympathizers on a mobile island/vessel, reminiscent of Magneto's Asteroid M, which had been dubbed Utopia. It is thus confirmed that her agreement to side with Osborn was entirely part of Scott's master plan.
When Osborn retaliates and sends his Avengers to fight the X-Men, Emma is tasked to remove the Sentry from play, since it seems that Osborn had influenced the Void side of Bob's personality to gain dominance. She goes to Xavier, who aids her in accessing a special "white room" Emma and other telepaths set up in Bob's head for this kind of emergency. She pulls Bob into that room, giving his benign persona control of the Sentry. However, the Void, angered at the intrusion, assaults her. Bob then leaves the planet to prevent doing further harm, but the Void, angered, channels itself free and pursues Bob into space. The pain causes Emma to reflexively shift to diamond form. Xavier notices that a tiny sliver of the Void remained trapped inside Emma as a result, and warned her not to shift back into her organic form, perhaps surmising that the Void wouldn't be able to overcome Bob in his Sentry form if he wasn't whole.
After Osborn retreated, leaving the mutants to build their utopia, Emma continues to support Scott, though she is now seemingly trapped in her diamond form until the Void essence is somehow safely removed from her.
