improvidentPREFACE:
If your character is going to interact with Bill, it is extremely important you read the following and agree to said interactions. He can read all minds, his methods are invasive, and he has no qualms about sharing sensitive information on your character's past, present, or future in the same way that old folks like to share Werther's Originals candies.
Bill Cipher exists in a state of quantum uncertainty, which means that everything he is, he is also not. This can get confusing. Go with it. His powers include, but are certainly not limited to, ALL-ENCOMPASSING MENTAL MANIPULATION. As with other, more "traditional" demons, he can be summoned and engage in contracts with humans, which are sealed with handshakes. When summoned he is able to place all surroundings within a trance-like sleep, including the summoner. Colors lose their saturation and he can manipulate everything in proximity to his will.
Bill can invade dreams even without prior contact to the person whose dreams are being invaded. Within the dreamscape he is in his element, twisting the surroundings to his whims and able to access all information available in said dreamscape.
His triangular body can project images and houses its own pocket dimension - while he possesses a form, that form is not tangible. He exists in a mindscape where he can choose to become visible to those on the fragile, mortal plane. To some extent he can predict the future, but the full range of those predictions is not known. In Bill's own words, he can
Last but not least, Bill can remove souls from bodies (as long as a contract is agreed to) and possess a physical form, leaving the body's original soul trapped in the mindspace. Incapable of returning to their own form they can inhabit soulless vessels. Bill "appears" unable to comprehend human limitations, as unconsciousness of his meat puppet can sever the tether between him and the body he is possessing, forcing him back into the mindscape. He should probably invest in 5-Hour Energy drinks, or Mabel Juice.
OOC:
Backtagging: Always and forever. I'm a slow tagger, please don't hound me, I get to things at my own pace and the tags are usually better for it.
Threadjacking: Sure! Unless the thread is very obviously planned in such a way that it only involves the people currently threading it, feel free to bust on in!
Fourthwalling: Bill Cipher sees everything and knows (almost) everything. He wouldn't be surprised if someone recognized him, but that's more his gig: reading thoughts and patterns and every possible temporal probability.
IC:
Physical Contact: As a dream demon, Bill is intangible. He resides in another plane of existence but can make himself known and seen in the mortal plane. Physical contact is impossible, at best.
Flirting: God, please. I dare you.
Kissing/Hugging: Not applicable unless some powering-down event happens. If it does, we'll talk about physical contact on a case by case basis.
Romance: Beings of energy and rage hAVE NO NEED FOR ROMANCE.
Injuring: Attempts can be made, but...as stated before...it's basically impossible to fight him unless it is within the confines of the mindscape. So...it has to be in a dream, or someone's subconscious.
If you are uncomfortable with the idea of Bill being able to obtain thoughts and being a general douchecanoe nuisance, DO NOT ENGAGE HIM. No one is really exempt from his weird power, so avoidance on my and your part will therefore be necessary. Please comment below with a filled-out "form."
Thanks!

Δ Can Bill haunt your character's dreams? Yes! As long as it's nothing too traumatizing
Δ Are you at all interested in the possibility of having your character be a meat puppet? dude if the contract is sweet enough by all means
