Emma Frost

## Powers & Abilities

* **Telepath Physiology:** Emma Frost possesses telepathic abilities of a similar caliber to those of Charles Xavier, over which she had an extremely refined level of skill. Frost has been cited as a "World-class telepath", "**Omega Class Telepath**" Additionally, she has also been referred among the five telepaths on the planet capable of perfectly and seamlessly altering a mind, has demonstrated the ability to stalemate Exodus, and overcome more powerful telepaths, such as a young Nate Grey and a young Rachel Summers, through greater experience and skill. When Wolverine thought to be protected from her thanks to Level 9 Psi-Shields created by Charles Xavier, she stated she was herself **Level 10**. Her abilities have been stated to rival that of Charles Xavier himself, this statement only proved in her telepathic defeat of the Professor.
	+ **Telepathy:** Emma has displayed the telepathic standards of broadcasting and receiving thoughts, mind-control, altering perceptions and memories, projection of offensive blasts of Psionic energy causing mental pain or unconsciousness, astral projection and brain engram modification.
		- ***Psionic Shield:*** Emma can erect a psychic shield for protection of herself and other minds she is immune or highly resistant to any/all mental intrusion, including psychic or empathic powers, hypnosis, illusions, deception, etc.
			* ***Psionic Shields Removal:*** She stated she could easily take Wolverine's Level 9 Psi-Shields down, though their removal could leave Wolverine as the equivalent of a three-year-old child.
				+ In addition to that, Emma can use her telepathy through mutant scanning devices' detection beams such as Sentinels, bypassing the devices' shielding to affect their operators.
		- ***Telepathic and Mind Cloaking:*** Emma can telepathically mask her presence and the use of her abilities from being detected by other mutants and psychic entities. These defenses can be extended to others around them as well. Cloaking via telepathy is not perfect and powerful telepathic mutants may notice and 'see' through this ability. Also including the ability to rearrange the mental engrams of mutants so her distinctive mutant thought patterns cannot be detected by Cerebro-type devises or by other telepaths.
		- ***Illusions:*** Emma can create realistic telepathic illusions and cause people to experience events which are not actually occurring. These illusions can also be used to help others fight against pain or simply surround them with more pleasant environments.
		- ***Absorb Information:*** Emma can quickly process and store information, by mental transference.
		- ***Download Information:*** Emma can place large amounts of information in another's mind.
		- ***Astral Projection:*** Emma can project one's astral form from their body onto astral planes or the physical planes. In the physical plane, one can travel in astral form over vast distances.
		- ***Power Negation:*** Emma can place "psychic inhibitors" in the minds of mutant adversaries to prevent them from using their powers.
		- ***Pain Inducement:*** Emma can induce mental pain telepathically.
		- ***Heal Trauma:*** Emma can erase a person’s memories and to heal mental trauma through "psychic surgery", the power to stimulate or deaden the pain and pleasure centers in a person's brain.

		- ***Mind Link:*** Emma can develop a mental link with one person or a number of people.
		- ***Paralysis:*** Emma can induce temporary mental or physical paralysis.
		- ***Mental Sedation:*** Emma can telepathically "sedate" one's victims so that, if already rendered unconscious, they remain so for as long as a telepath continues to "sedate" them.
		- ***Mind Alteration:*** Emma can alter the minds of others by force of will, changing their personality partially or entirely. This can also be used to implant subconscious thoughts like unexplained aversion to certain words or ideas.
		- ***Memory Erasure:*** Emma can cause loss of particular memories or total amnesia in another person or group of people.
		- ***Telepathic Detection:*** Emma can sense the presence of another person, mutant or not, within a small but as yet undefined radius of oneself by perceiving the distinctive mental radiations emitted by such a being.
		- ***Telepathic Tracking:*** Enhanced Psionic senses enable Emma to track other sentient beings by their unique Psionic emanations.
		- ***Psionic Blasts:*** Emma can project Psionic force bolts or blast waves which can do damage on either a physical or mental level and which can affect a victim's mind so as to cause the victim pain or unconsciousness. Emma has been shown to use this ability as a reflexive response to a physical attack, resulting in the aggressor being thrown across the room.
		- ***Psionic Lightning:*** Emma can channel the ambient Psionic energy in the air through a target having a physical effect. She used this ability once against M, knocking her out.
	+ **Telekinesis:** Emma was also stated to be a potential telekinetic. Emma unintentionally levitated some utensils while facing a nightmare.
* **Organic Diamond Form:** As a result of undergoing a body-wide Secondary Mutation, Frost possesses the ability to transform her body into a flexible organic diamond form. In many ways, this is similar to Colossus' organic steel form. She must transform all parts of her body, rather than selectively transforming certain areas and can remain in this form for an undetermined amount of time. If she is rendered unconscious, Frost's body will automatically transform into its normal state. This transformation also alters Frost's personality, causing her to become rather cold-hearted and to lose her empathy for others. Emma does not have access to her telepathy while in her diamond form, although she could during her first time after her Secondary Mutation.
	+ ***Superhuman Strength:*** In her diamond form, Frost's physical strength is increased to superhuman levels. At her peak, she is able to lift approximately 2 tons.
	+ ***Superhuman Stamina:*** While transformed, her muscles produce almost no fatigue toxins during physical activity, granting her almost limitless superhuman stamina, or at least until or unless she is forced to resume her normal state.
	+ ***Superhuman Durability:*** Frost's diamond form renders her highly resistant to most forms of physical injury. She is able to resist great impact forces, such as being repeatedly struck with superhuman force, without being injured. She has withstood being zapped by Young Cyclops' optic blast, blows from Hulk, and blasts from the Dreaming Celestial. Despite the Celestial's blast breaking her arm off, this showed an incredibly powerful upper limit to Emma's powers, as a Juggernaut powered Colossus was hit by the same blast and was sent flying across the city with a hole through his chest. Her body is also resistant to temperature extremes, able to withstand temperatures as cold as -390 degrees Fahrenheit or as hot as approximately 7362 degrees Fahrenheit before her form begins to melt. Frost is also self-sustained while transformed, requiring no food or water.
	+ ***Telepathic Immunity:*** Emma has shown to be immune to other telepathic powers in her diamond form, but in turn, she is unable to use her own telepathic powers until she turns back.
* **Expert Technician:** Emma Frost is highly skilled in electronic theory and electronics and has learned how to exactly build devices that can amplify psionic energy and utilize psionic energy for various effects. She devised the mechanism by which Mastermind projected his illusions directly into the mind of the Phoenix Force.
* **Defense Training:** Emma Frost is an above-average athlete and has had some training in hand-to-hand combat. During a training session in which Emma did not have access to her powers, Banshee attempted to make an example of her. Emma quickly, efficiently, and easily dispatched Banshee, much to his embarrassment.
* **Master Astral Combatant:** Emma Frost is trained and excels in astral combat.
* **Pilot:** Emma Frost has been seen piloting a helicopter without trouble.
* **CPR Techniques:** Emma Frost knows some CPR techniques but is not a doctor.

## Alternate Forms

### Phoenix Force

* **Phoenix Force:** Emma Frost was one of five avatars of the Phoenix Force which granted her the great cosmic powers of the Phoenix as well as greatly enhancing her telepathic abilities during her time as its host. At the time of her being a Phoenix avatar, she was stated to be an "**Omega-Level** Mutant Threat", and demonstrated the following powers:
	+ ***Enhanced Telepathy:*** Whilst in possession of the Phoenix force Emma's already formidable telepathic powers were greatly enhanced to the point where she was able to temporarily disable and telepathically scan the psi-resistant Red Hulk. At one point she demonstrated the ability to simultaneously access the thoughts of everyone on the planet.
	+ ***Interstellar Travel:*** As a Phoenix Force avatar, Emma could fly unaided through the vacuum of space. As a member of the Phoenix Five, Emma could fly long distances between the Blue Side of the Moon and Utopia, where she traveled by levitating her body.
	+ ***Fire Generation and Manipulation:*** As an avatar of the Phoenix Force, Emma could create and control 'cosmic' flames.
	+ ***Self-Resurrection:*** Even after being shattered while in her diamond form by Thor and thrown into space, Emma's body shards fell back to Earth, ripped through Thor's body and reassembled, demonstrating her immortality as an Avatar of the Phoenix Force.

## Equipment

* **Mini-Cerebro:**
* **Mind-Exchange Device:** The White Queen has designed a gun-like device, which she once used to exchange minds for a period of time with Storm.

## Weaknesses

* While in her Diamond Form, Frost is unable to access he.r telepathic abilities.
* **Familial Immunity:** As seen during her various attempts to enter Adrienne's mind, Emma's telepathic powers are unable to read or affect her sister's mind. Her other siblings, Cordelia and Christian, were possible to read at first, but have since become "intangible" as well, possibly because of the emergence of their mutant abilities. Adrienne and Cordelia, in particular, would take advantage of this ability during their plots to manipulate/kill Emma.
* **Phoenix Force:** Her telepathic powers were greatly damaged by the Phoenix Force, though she still possessed them. With her altered telepathy she demonstrated the ability to project thoughts, although she had little control over it. She actually lost the ability to utilize her telepathy in various ways as is evidenced by the fact that she relied entirely upon the Cuckoos in her fight with Xorn/Jean, using her own skills to focus their psionic talents.
