Line 7:
Regarding possessors, a [[The Symbiote|Symbiote]] is an example where the host is usually the bigger and more physical of the two (or more) involved, as opposed to the parasite. While a [[Demonic Possession]] usually has the opposite, where the demon is the source of the host's strength and power, however, a B.D.B. possessed by such an entity becomes a [[Living Bodysuit]].
 
Most B.D.B's are [[Giant Mook|Giant Mooks]]s or even bodyguards who are forced to take the blame for killing their charge after the possessor has relieved control (though this can end with the B.D.B also being discretely killed off to further suspicion and/or confusion.)
 
In some cases, it's safe to state that a B.D.B is a more powerful version of the standard [[Meat Puppet]], though expected to be less common.
Line 30:
* Used by Abe in the ''[[Oddworld]]'' series through the power of Possession.
* ''[[Messiah]]'', revolving around possessing people, naturally features these.
* The somewhat obscure robotic third person shooter ''[[Metal Arms]]'' has [[Mighty Glacier]] [[Giant Mook]] 'Titan' enemies who are common targets for Glitch's Control Tether--theyTether—they're considerably more sturdy than Glitch or most of the enemies faced in the game, and great for plowing through enemy squads, at least while they're free of [[Subsystem Damage]].
