Emma Frost

Marvel

Emma Frost, known as the White Queen, is a prominent character in Marvel Comics, primarily associated with the X-Men franchise. A powerful mutant, her primary ability is telepathy, rivaling even Professor X in skill. However, her mutant powers also extend to a secondary mutation: the ability to transform into an organic diamond form, granting her superhuman strength, durability, and immunity to telepathy, though she is unable to utilize her telepathy while in this form.

Initially introduced as a villain and the White Queen of the Hellfire Club, a secret society seeking power and influence, Emma Frost's history is marked by a complex evolution. She eventually experiences a dramatic shift, becoming a reformed character and aligning herself with the X-Men. This transformation included becoming a teacher at Xavier's School for Gifted Youngsters and a key strategist within the X-Men team.

Beyond her mutant abilities and leadership roles, Emma Frost is often portrayed as a shrewd businesswoman, having built and managed Frost International, a multi-billion dollar corporation. She is known for her intelligence, cunning, and at times, morally ambiguous actions, making her a compelling and multifaceted character.
