Origin

The Frosting
Born in Massachusetts to a wealthy family, Emma Frost did not have an idyllic childhood. Her father was stern and borderline abusive, her mother a dope addict, and she was bullied at her school. Instead of family, she forms a bond with one of her teachers. After her powers manifest, she gains the ability to read the minds of others, causing her to read her teacher's attraction for her. This leads to the man getting fired and Emma blackmailing her father, which ultimately leads to her renouncing her family and choosing to live her life her way.

Emma is homeless for a while, before starting an affair with a young man in debt to the mafia. To clear his debt, she attempts a fake kidnapping scheme to steal from her father, which backfires and ends in her lover's death. After freeing herself, she enrolls in college with the ransom money, coming to learn about mutants and meet some of the first ones aside from herself.

When she is eventually invited into the Hellfire Club, Emma uncovers a plan to destroy mutants and, teaming up with Sebastian Shaw and a few others, kills the current leaders of the plot and assumes control of the Hellfire Club, becoming the White Queen. Proving herself to be an adept businesswoman, she then builds her own fortune by investing in many companies, including such lofty names as Stark Industries and becoming the Chairman and CEO of Frost International.

She also becomes the Chairman of the Board of Trustees and Headmistress of the Massachusetts Academy, which she sets up as sort of anti-Xavier's School for Gifted Youngsters. They have several altercations with the X-Men while trying to lure Xavier's students away, fighting, even at times torturing captive X-Men and engaging in mental battles with notable psychics on the X-Team, while also having internal squabbles and power plays from within the Hellfire Club.

At the close of the Secret Wars Emma finds herself in a new world, with new rules and a very different timeline. Adjustment isn't easy.

Psyche

+ Proud

Emma Frost thinks very highly of herself, her abilities, her looks, her opinions, and her convictions. Very few things can sway her mind on how awesome she is, or just how much better she is than you.

+ Unabashed

She dresses like a stripper, or at least like a highly-paid call girl, showing off more skin than most people would deem appropriate in any given social situation. She talks flirtatiously and directly. She's not ashamed of it. Her sexuality is a weapon, she does it to mess with you.

+ Intelligent

Emma has a highly gifted IQ, and she's not afraid of wielding it and all the big words and high concepts she knows in an attempt to make you look dull and dim.

+ Independent

She doesn't need you, she doesn't need anyone! She can stand on her own, and she will take down everyone around her to prove it!

+ Motivation

Emma Frost seeks to guide young mutants in the ways of the world, to shield, protect, and nurture future generations. If this means humanity has to be pushed aside to do it, so be it.

+ Goals

Money, power, and prestige. These are the tools with which she can shape and lead mutants into a brighter, more dominant future in which they will never be abused or denied again, and teach them the things Xavier is too weak to do.

Abilities

+ Telepathy

Emma Frost is one of the most powerful telepaths on Earth, capable of communicating with, reading, and controlling minds, bodily possession, memory alteration or erasure, inducing pain and illusions of all five senses, astral projection, and 'psychic surgery' to heal wounded or damaged minds. She is able to broadcast and communicate with a large number of minds, and across vast distances around the planet. She does not have telekinetic powers, but can produce 'psi-bolts' from ambient psionic energy, which can attack both mentally and physically, capable of incapacitating or killing foes.

+ Diamond Form

Her secondary mutation of turning into organic, mobile diamond affords Emma a great deal of protection and physical might, while at the same time shutting off her access to her telepathic powers. She is near-invulnerable in this form, though she does have a single flaw which is more vulnerable than the rest of her and causes her body to shatter. In her diamond form, she gains increased strength (approximately two tons), tireless stamina, immunity to cold and heat, no longer needs sustenance or oxygen, and is immune to all but the strongest of telepaths.

Advantages

+ Wealthy

Emma Frost is extremely wealthy, sitting on the board of several major corporations and currently the Chairman and CEO of Frost International.

+ Frost Industries

Emma is Chairman and CEO of Frost International, which primarily deals in shipping and R&D, wielding considerable influence and power within the company.

+ Hellfire Club

As the White Queen of the Hellfire Club, Emma Frost wields a lot of influence and power, and has access to a lot of very privileged, and not very nice, people. She is in the innermost, elite, circle and, given her powers, there is very little that goes on that she doesn't know about.

Skills

+ Gifted

Emma has a very high IQ, and is an extremely cunning adversary, able to negotiate her way through both business and the politics of the Hellfire Club. She is a very experienced telepath, skilled at figuring out mutants and how their powers work, and holds a number of degrees in several fields.

+ Psionic Tech

Frost has become highly skilled in the use of electronics to amplify or utilize psionic abilities or energy, capable of building devices very similar to Cerebro, or which would allow one to swap bodies with another.

+ Combat

While not a true warrior, she is capable in self-defense, especially in her diamond form. Even without her powers, the average, untrained civilian would stand no chance against her.

Disadvantages

+ Can't Do Both

Emma Frost cannot use both of her powers together. Using diamond form shuts her out of her telepathic abilities.

+ Shatterpoint

There is a single flaw in the structure of her diamond form. If properly exploited, it can cause her to shatter, effectively dead until reassembled.

+ Bad Company

She believes she knows best for the mutants of the world, particularly the younger generation. Her involvement with the Hellfire Club and the many differing agendas there are likely to sabotage her already hardline efforts at creating her own version of an 'ideal future' (under her, of course).

+ Better Than You

And she knows it! She can be persuasive when she wants to be, but generally she operates from a position of standing over others, whether she truly does or not, and tends to disregard opinions, feelings, or ideals not in line with her own.
