Emma Frost (New X-Men)

Emma Frost has had a contentious relationship with the X-Men over the years. From antagonist to uneasy ally, and now to teacher of the newest crop of X-Men, including her protegees the Stepford Cuckoos. Her psychic abilities and diamond form make her a dangerous foe, and her dedication to the next generation of mutants makes her a still more dangerous combatant to any who would see the Xavier Institute harm.
