Conspiracy Theorist:
What you are suggesting is something like a ventriloquists doll. Not creepy at all.

It was a shock when Bob animated the lion statue, not something we have seen before, he had only animated the Skull and Bob has also imbued items with magical energy for Butters.

Other disembodied spirits have drawn ectoplasm from the Never Never (Binders Goons, the Nightmare etc ) so there is no reason Bonea can’t, it is something the Fallen did when shapeshifting to increase mass, so she should have this knowledge but  it is useless as a vessel because dawn would wipe it away, but using a vessel inside the construct would allow Harry to interact with Bonea in the same way as with Maggie. Just don’t hug her when dawn breaks. That’s the benefit of using skulls as vessels.

Of course if Bonea does it then Bob would be able to gain this knowledge, but without knowing his parents it is unclear currently if he has the knowledge to draw ectoplasm. His construct would look like Butters younger brother based on SG.

Bob doesn't appear to do magic directly and I suspect the same for Bonea. So he couldn't conjure a body from the Never Never assuming that is true. Have I missed something in the text?

I wasn't thinking that, but now I really want to see it. Also it's not my idea. I've seen others suggest it here in the past. I've always imagined something more along the lines of a mechanical man or one of those little artist's mannequins only bigger and more detailed, at least for the hands and feet.

There are somethings that could be characterized as magic, especially the stuff Evil Bob has done, but we haven't seen him do much. I'm thinking about going into the Nevernever, the little death thing he did to Harry, and pretty much everything in Ghost Story either of them did. And didn't Harry suggest that Bob was powering all the spells that Butters was doing in SG?

morriswalters:
I'm unsure but, maybe, I just don't think so.

StrayDog:
There is really nothing to worry about with Bonea!! After all, what trouble could a Spirit of Intellect who is the product of a Fallen and a Starborn Wizard get into. It isn't like she has perfect recall and has knowledge of untold secrets as well as soulfire, hellfire, Kemmler's word, etc or anything. Sheesh!! Nothing to see here folks, move along.
