History
Christian was the one member of the family who didn't want to have anything to do with the family business. Yet when his father Winston Frost learned Christian was gay he threatened to disown him if he didn't dump his boyfriend, Dante Ortega, and move back home. Christian defied his father and left the family, only remaining in contact with Emma. When Winston retaliated by using his great power and influence to have Christian's boyfriend framed and deported, Christian became deeply depressed and turned to substance abuse.
Emma Frost became very worried for Christian and asked their father to get him help. Winston claimed that he would help Christian but lied and instead sent him to a mental institution for ex-gay conversion treatments. At some point, Winston Frost apparently had Christian released from the institution in order to take over as the heir to his business empire.
Emma discovered this and went to see him at her father's home, but Winston met her at the door and forced her to retreat using never-before-demonstrated psionic powers. Worried, Emma recruited Iceman to help her rescue her brother, but when they got there they found Winton dead and discovered Christian was the one with powers, having created a projection of his father.
After using Bobby's mind to calm Christian down, Emma decided to take over Frost Technologies and work with Christian to regain control.
After the creation of the new mutant nation of Krakoa, the Hellfire Club was reformed as the Hellfire Trading Company with Emma as its White Queen once again and Christian as her White Bishop. He has also since entered a relationship with Bobby Drake.
