Frost (Earth-1: Pre-Crisis)

"I used to be afraid that because we shared a body, I was only gonna get to live half a life, that I was only gonna be half a person. I realize now, that isn't true. You didn't take anything from me. In fact, it's just the opposite. You make my life complete. I gotta be honest, I'm a little worried that we're not gonna make it out of this and that I might lose you forever. And I can't handle that. I would die. love you more than anything."

- Frost to Caitlin Snow

Frost, formerly known as Killer Frost, was the former alter of Caitlin Snow when Snow was cured of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and developed dissociative identity disorder.

Frost originally worked in the criminal world alongside Savitar, and later served under Amunet Black. Frost soon reformed and joined Team Flash and switched positions with Snow regularly. Eventually, the injury caused by Eva McCulloch's Mirror Gauntlet split Frost and Snow apart.

Originally thinking she could live a normal life, Frost was hunted by government official Kristen Kramer and sent to prison for his crimes before rebranding as a vigilante. Luckily, Frost's heroic actions during a prison break allowed her to be on parole, rejoining Team Flash's actions.

Early Life
At some point of Snow Snow's life, Frost was created and became a split personality of her. However, she was hidden until recent years. In 2019, Snow let Frost to take main control.

In 2017, Frost committed several crimes before reforming. This includes an aggravated assault on Acolyte, an attempted murder on Tracy Brand, two kidnappings of Julian Albert and Cecile Horton.

At some point, Frost read some of Rebecca Silver's books and was aware that Mick Rory is Rebecca.

Black Hole
After the crisis, Frost was sent to fight Doctor Light and was injured by the Photon Rifle blast. Later, Frost tried to use cold healing to help the wound but was unable and caused both herself and Snow unconscious. A few hours later, Cisco and Ralph brought a polar bear to visit her at her apartment. As they saw her sick, they made her awake again. Since they were unable to completely heal her, Snow suggested seeing her mother. However, Frost was unwilling to as she was afraid Carla would hate her. With Ralph's encouragement, she decided to visit Carla.

Return
Four weeks later, Frost returned fully recovered and fought Eva McCulloch. However, due to Barry's depleting emotions, she was not rescued by him and fell unconscious after being shot by Eva's laser cannon. Brought back to S.T.A.R. Labs, Barry was able to synthesize a cure and bring Frost back awake.

Later, Frost fought a "rogue" Barry using Velocity X and powering herself with superhuman speed. However, she was quickly defeated and was brought back to S.T.A.R. Labs by Allegra after the latter's successful defeat of Barry. Despite their effort, the Quantum Ball thrown by Barry before the fight returns and knocked the team unconscious.

Invasion of Central City
Waking up from her injuries, Snow sees Barry crying over Iris and assisted to bring her to the med lab. Frost then prepared for the final showdown between Team Flash and Eva's army. However, Cisco's gadgets failed and fled to her. The two then chose to fight the army hand-to-hand.

After Eva realized what she had done, Iris and Barry assisted her on restoring the normalcy and Frost returned to S.T.A.R. Labs. She then bid farewell to Ralph after his extreme injury and told him that she agrees for a road trip.

Split from Snow
A week after the Invasion, Frost and Snow suffered from headaches and went for a sleep, only to wake up in separate bodies. They then approached Cisco Ramon and surprised him with their sudden change. Cisco later brought them to the Cortex and surprised Barry and Iris.

They then went to the lounge and discussed the prior events to the split. Barry then sped off to fight Psych and later Frost assisted the treatment of his injury. Frost then approached Cisco who was attempted to fix the Quantum Splicer for the merge. Frost then sabotaged the device and was confronted by Snow, with Frost telling her that she does not want to merge due to her finally living a life without in her body.

Hours later, Barry, Frost and Cisco went to the Cleary Capital Investments Office and fought Psych. Frost was then quickly placed in a "nightmare" where she was arrested by the CCPD due to her criminal activities in 2017. In the "nightmare", Frost asked Joe who turned her in and suspected Mark, with Joe telling her it was Caitlin Snow.

The trio then returned to S.T.A.R. Labs and suffered from panic attack symptoms. Frost was alone in the Speed Lab fixing the splicer until Snow looked for her. After telling her about her own fears, Snow offered Frost to sleep in an extra room in her apartment and considered her a sister.

Life in Prison
"Taking away a metahuman's powers isn't the same thing as taking away a gun from a criminal. Erasing our powers is erasing our identity. It's saying, "Hey, you were made bad, change that." But shouldn't justice be about changing the way a person acts, not the way they were born? I get it. You fear us because we're different. You'd feel safer if we were the same. But different can't be cured. It's here to stay. We're here to stay. Some of you only think of me as the criminal I used to be. Back then, I was only interested in protecting myself. But, then, I found someone else worth protecting. And protecting that person led me to protecting a whole city. And slowly I changed. I learned how... I learned how to be selfless instead of selfish. I learned that I'm my best self when I'm protecting other people."
