Emma Frost spent her charmed youth honing her mutant gifts to become one of the world's most powerful psychics. Coupled with her creative flare (sic) for manipulation, Emma's powers carried her swiftly up the ranks of the powerful and villainous Hellfire Club.
After a devastating attack wiped out her school, Emma joined forces with the X-Men. Despite their antagonistic history, Emma's dedication to educating mutant youth has made her into an unlikely ally.
Powers[]
Psychic Meddling[]
POWER COST 8
Emma weaves her way through the enemy's mind, further destabilizing their psyche at every turn. Select an enemy. Creates a 3-turn Purple Repeater tile that destroys 2 enemy Strike, Protect, or Attack tiles. If none exist, the Repeater tile destroys 1 AP in the enemy's strongest color instead. (Does not generate AP.) While this tile is on the board, that character's abilities are disabled. This tile is destroyed if the selected enemy is Downed or if Emma enters Diamond Form.
