Fictional character biography Early life Emma Frost was born in Boston, Massachusetts to the wealthy Winston and Hazel Frost. She is the third of four children: her siblings are named Christian, Adrienne, and Cordelia. Her father Winston was cold, ruthless, and domineering, often imposing impossibly high standards on his children, while Hazel abused prescription drugs to cope with the tensions of her household. Emma had no emotional support from her parents or her sisters, but got along with her brother Christian. At her school, Frost was ruthlessly bullied by her peers but found support in her teacher, Ian Kendall. When her telepathic powers manifested, Frost was able to read the minds of others and glean information. Frost became a tutor to the other students and Ian recommended that she become a teacher, something Frost's father refused. On her way home from school one day, Frost's car broke down and Ian gave her a ride home. After reading his thoughts and learning that he thought she was beautiful and intelligent, Frost kissed him. Her sister Adrienne recorded it and her father used the evidence to get Ian fired. Frost began to fight back by blackmailing her father. Intrigued by her actions, Winston offered her the family fortune but Frost rejected his offer and decided to make her own way in life.After a period of homelessness, Frost met and fell in love with a young man named Troy, who agreed to let her live with him. She learned that he owed a large amount of money to a local mobster named Lucien. To save Troy's life, Frost agreed to participate in a fake kidnapping scheme in an attempt to extort the remainder of Troy's debt from her father. However, this soon turned into a real kidnapping and Troy was killed while valiantly attempting to save Frost from an enraged Lucien. Using her powers, Frost turned the thugs against one another inside an illusion, causing an imaginary gunfight to break out, and the panicked, supposed last survivor to free her. After Emma's escape, she anonymously called the police and they were all taken into custody with no memory of her.Frost took the ransom money and enrolled in Empire State University. There, she began to learn about mutants for the first time and met fellow telepath Astrid Bloom, who became her friend and mentor. Frost later learned that Astrid had been secretly manipulating events. Furious, she attacked Astrid telepathically and left her comatose. Frost was later invited to the Hellfire Club, an underground elite society. Frost discovered the plans of Edward Buckman and Steven Lang to destroy all mutants. Alongside Sebastian Shaw, Lourdes Chantel, and Harry Leland, Frost battled Lang's Sentinels. Frost killed Buckman and the Council of the Chosen, then – along with Shaw – took control of the Hellfire Club, and set themselves up as Lords Cardinal of the Inner Circle of the Hellfire Club. White Queen of the Hellfire Club As White Queen of the Hellfire Club, Frost held many titles, one of which was chairman of the board and CEO of Frost International, which helped to fund the activities of the Lords Cardinal. Frost also became the chairman of the board of trustees and the headmistress of the Massachusetts Academy, a school for mutants which served as a counterpoint to Charles Xavier's School for Gifted Youngsters. Frost and the club's agents later attempted to recruit Kitty Pryde for the Massachusetts Academy, and captured (and Frost personally tortured) several members of the X-Men, including Storm, Colossus, Wolverine, and Phoenix. Frost engaged Phoenix in a psychic battle in which she was overpowered and on the verge of being killed. Frost launched a last-minute attack that led the X-Men to believe she had committed suicide, though in truth, she was comatose and recovering from Phoenix's attack under the care of Sebastian Shaw. In another encounter with the Hellfire Club, Frost telepathically forced Kitty Pryde's parents to transfer her from Xavier's to the Massachusetts Academy. She then switched minds with Storm to defeat the X-Men from within their own ranks. However, the process was soon reversed .... Discover the Emma Scott popular books.
