Obviously he would have to posses someone during the time period that the body was being made, but (as silly as it is) I receantly read a fanfiction where that idea was used. Alchemy, I believe. (Not refering to the anime of course.)

Emample of the use and theory of Alchemy is the homunculus, which could work, since Bill is kind of small already.

This way he wouldn't need to worry about being pushed out by the bodies' original conscious. Because there wouldn't be one. But then again I'm no Alchemy expert nor do I perticularly know that much about it, so my idea might be all nul and void.

As a side note: If anyone is going to be possed then the first shall be  Gideon.

From then on it's uncharted waters.

But I wonder why the symbols connected to certain characters are even on the wheel... Unless it has something to do with the portal... Bill can't create anything in the real world, only the mindscape, so he needs to possess someone. I already said that he would have to posses someone will making a body. (If he were even going to.) If that were the case, I don't think he would need to possess a body (in fact, if my thought on how it would work is correct, he couldn't possess a body for it to work). He would need a corporeal being to perform the alchemical task (i.e. creating a homunculus or any sort of body for Bill). I don't think it would work if Bill were possessing the person because it needs a human, external source to do the task. Also, he would need an enormous amount of energy; equivalent to dozens or hundreds of human lives.

So, going with this theory and if my knowledge of alchemy is correct, he would need to convince a person to perform alchemy that would kill a crap ton of people. Yes, this can be done without the person knowing they're killing people, but that is the only way to get him a body.

I like the theory and it would be cool, but it certainly couldn't work if Bill were directly involved in the process in any way whatsoever. Well I did say I wasn't an expert, but I like how you put it and it does make more sense than the blip I posted. But I'm also glad that you seem to agree on a level with the idea of it.

Though here's a question, if a lot of energy is needed... Couldn't Bill just give said human that would do the task some of his energy. (I ask this beacause Bill or other said he was made of pure energy, yada yada.)
