Sara: This is Sara Sloan, Global Media correspondent for the Superheroine Battle Arena, here today with Dr. Mukta Sanji the techno-genius behind the design of the SBA Arena. Good morning, doctor.
Mukta: Please, call me Mukta.
Sara: Ok, Mukta. You've developed so many technologies that allow the very existence of the SBA League. But the one that fans ask about constantly, are the SparBots. What would you like to tell the fans about their origin story?
Mukta: Well, it's publicly known that I began my career as a super-villainess then later a heroine. I don't have any actual super powers but I developed a suit of powered armor that allowed me to perform super deeds--both nefarious and benevolent. The SparBot is basically a re-tooled version of my old Guardianna armor.
Sara: And the SparBot is made of the same indestructible metal that the arena itself is made out of?
Mukta: Yes, Inertrium. It's a super dense alloy that also reflects kinetic energy. A SparBot is capable of withstanding a sustained shelling from military weaponry or several minutes of punching from a heroine in the Super Heavyweight power class.
Sara: An indestructible fighting robot? Isn't that dangerous?
Mukta: Not terribly. The SparBots are intentionally designed to be somewhat clumsy and lumbering. If one were to ever go rogue you could probably evade it by walking swiftly away from it. They do have a primitive AI that lets them fight--this was put in just to keep the heroines honest during a sparring bout. However, their primary purpose is to take a super-powered beating.
Sara: Well, thank you for your time, Mukta. Do you have any questions or final statements for the SBA fans?
Mukta: I have a question for you. Are you seeing anyone right now?
Sara: Excuse me?
Mukta: I am so hot for you right now I am about to pass out.
Sara: Umm.... Let's cut back to the studio. Phil? Phil!
