1980s
The White Queen of the Hellfire Club turned X-Man, headmistress, and Quiet Council member. Emma is an omega-level telepath who can also transform into organic diamond. She is brilliant, ruthless, imperious, and deeply protective of her students — a combination that makes her one of the most compelling characters in the franchise. Her relationship with Cyclops redefined both characters.
