Despite having an abusive upbringing in almost every foster home she stayed at, Frankie is still a very kind and compassionate yet meek individual, but also very timid and scared. Eventually Frankie grew desperate enough to protect herself, so she went to Alchemy after he promised to make her into a meta-human. Frankie was horrified at Magenta's actions and as a result, Frankie resolved to be a better person by fighting off Magenta's persona with the help of S.T.A.R. Labs if that point should ever come again. Frankie was an orphan who spent her life moving between several foster homes. Because most of the homes she lived in were bad social environments, Frankie developed dissociative identity disorder so her mind could attempt to cope with the resulting fear. Her other personality referred to itself as "Magenta". Sometime prior to late 2016, she was taken in by John James and his wife, Karen.

Post-Flashpoint
Magenta used her powers to bring a tanker to kill John, though was thwarted by the Flash. After Jesse Quick came to the Flash's aid and kept the tanker from falling onto Central City Hospital, Magenta was confronted by the Flash. Magenta told the Flash that she wanted both her foster father and Frankie gone. Magenta was told that she shouldn't let her foster father destroy the good left in her by the Flash.
Magenta was then told that he never forgave himself for his mistakes, and instead took it out on her and he couldn't move forward. She was then told that she could and what she was doing wasn't the way. Finally, Frankie stopped her actions and returned the tanker. Frankie then apologized as she cried into Flash's arms as he comforted her.
At S.T.A.R. Labs, Frankie was told her foster father was being prosecuted. Frankie then told Team Flash the origins of her powers. She was then told that Caitlin Snow had arranged for a better home waiting for her at Keystone City. When Frankie asked what would happen if Magenta tried to come back, Barry told her she should fight it and call them if she needed help.
