Wait really?

Wait is diamond powers a recent thing for Emma or has she always had them? Anyone can give me a quick breakdown of her history?

Yeah, she's always had the power to turn into diamond.

She's a rare mutant with two mutations. Her diamond form nullifies her ability to use her telepathy, as well as others to use their telepathy on her(unless you're a dumb Mary Sue), but increases her strength tenfold. She's about Spider-Man tier when she activates it. And it's durable enough that World War Hulk decided to stick her in the ground instead of dealing with her. She's tanked attacks from Celestials with it.

Anyway, her history is pretty simple. She was originally part of the Hellfire Club, a group of villains that are basically what the Illuminati are supposed to be. She was the technology expert(she made a gun that switched minds ffs) among that also the White Queen. She obviously did a LOT of stuff on her path to the top that's less than savory.

She eventually joins the X-Men. She helps Iceman with his psychological issues via telepath therapy(at some point she gains control of his body and pushes him to his absolute limits, which is well beyond what Bobby was capable of). Then she did the same to Scott Summers...and fell in love with him. She and Scott had a mind affair. Scott eventually called it off after Jean killed Emma and revived her.

Jean dies, and telepathically gave Scott permission to be involved with Emma. Emma and Scott were together for quite a long period of time. And she was allied with the X-Men too, where she did a few things:

- Fake betrayed the X-Men and joined Norman Osborn's Dark X-Men, then betrayed them for real at the perfect time.

- Hosted the Phoenix Force for a good minute.

- Had thousands of kid clones(though only 5 active). Pretty much killed for the most part by the Phoenix Force.

- Was one of the Phoenix Five, who practically began to create world peace by ending all wars, providing free food and water, among other things. PF makes all 5 slowly go crazy. Cyclops ends up stealing her portion and goes crazier. They break up after this.

- Joined with Kitty as a pirate. They also made up btw and became the bestest of best friends, with a hint of lesbian subtext.

Among more stuff but atm she's just doing Emma things iirc
