5 Reasons Why Emma Frost May Save Mutantkind (And 5 Reasons Why She'll Be Their Death)

10. Death: Emma Has Made Plans Since The Beginning Of Krakoa

Krakoa hides a secret.

Moira MacTaggert was a mutant that had lived many lives and convinced Professor Xavier and Magneto to create the nation of Krakoa but keep her existence secret. Having been killed by Destiny and Mystique in a former life, Moira didn’t want Destiny resurrected. Raven did it in secret and both took seats on the Quiet Council.

To counter this, Xavier and Magneto informed Emma Frost of Moira’s existence, her importance to Krakoa and Mystique, and Destiny’s machinations. Their plan backfired because Emma was furious at being left out of the loop for so long and informed the rest of the Council. Magneto resigned, and after Moira was depowered by a neutralizer that Frost gave to Mystique, she escaped and went on the run. It was decided that this information remains unknown to the larger mutant community.

Emma also suspected Mister Sinister of living up to his name. When he suggested restarting the Hellions to create a team that was having trouble adjusting to Krakoa’s way of life, she made sure to have her former student Empath on the team. Frost's lover Cyclops informed her that the Orchis scientist Doctor Stasis was a clone of Sinister and that the Mutant Resurrection Protocols had become public knowledge. It fell to Frost to reveal both of these truths to the Council as well.
