Bio:
Emma Grace Frost grew up in the rich neighborhood of Snow Valley, Massachusetts. Her family consisted of Winston (Father), Hazel (Mother), Christian (Eldest Child), Adrienne (Eldest Sister), Emma (Middle Sister) and Cordelia (Youngest Sister). Whilst attending the Snow Valley School, she was pushed by her father to excel in all her grades so she could finally win approval from him. But Emma turned out to be only a 'B' student, failing her father once again, causing him to mentally abuse Emma. During her teen years, her powers began to manifest, at first thought to be headaches and then into basic telepathy. She kept her abilities a secret, fearing she would be kicked out of her house if she told her father. Using her powers illicitly to improve her grades, Emma soon became a top 'A' student, finally winning approval from her father, but when her father found out about her relationship with her art teacher, Ian Kendell, he got him fired from the school. Emma later used her abilities to find secrets on her family and exploiting them to get back at her devious father. At first he was upset, but later realized Emma's tactics were the same as his, offering her a chance to take over the family business when old enough however, when she found out her brother was placed into a mental institution, she decided that this was enough, and she left the family for good making on her own.

When she got to Boston however, she became involved with a man named Troy Killkelly, who she discovered was involved with the Boston Mob. Troy told the mob leader, Lucien, that Emma was from the Frost Family, and came up with a plan to extort money out of Winston Frost by pretending to kidnap Emma and demand money from him. The plan didn't work, and Lucien killed Troy and then decided to kidnap Emma for real. When Emma realized that Lucien was going to kill her, she planted doubts in the thugs' minds, ending in a blood bath. Emma then took the small fortune her father left for the kidnappers to make it on her own and enrolled at Empire State University. There, Emma met Astrid Bloom, a very skilled telepath in her own right and the two became friends. Astrid taught Emma about the use of her powers and what she could do with them. It wasn't until Astrid began to harass Emma's friends that they ended up having a psychic battle. During the psychic fight, Astrid believed that she had beaten Emma, but Emma tricked her. Emma had been on an "express tour of her psyche" and learned everything Astrid knew. This was also where some of Astrid's personality traits bled through into Emma's consciousness (her bitterness towards baseline humans, for example) and left Astrid in a coma.
Emma later got a job at the Hellfire Club, where she was approached by Charles Xavier to join his second X-Men team along with Vulcan and Darwin. She refused him and Xavier erased the entire encounter from her then mostly-unshielded mind. From here she used her telepathy to help Sebastian Shaw stage a coup of the Hellfire Club and rose to become the Inner Circle's White Queen.
