"Bad, Dingo!"
―The Absolute Solver's response when Sparky bit onto her arm while disguised as Tessa Elliott.
Sparky is a minor character in Murder Drones.
As an Anti-Drone Sentinel, Sparky's initial goal was to guard Cabin Fever Labs. However, it would eventually end up short-circuiting after biting onto a human, which caused it to become a stray Red-eyed Sentinel that deviated from its original program.
Physical Appearance[]
Sparky appears as an Anti-Drone Sentinel whose eyes and lights were originally blue. However, after biting the Absolute Solver disguised as Tessa Elliott, it short circuited, and gained red eyes and lights upon reactivation. There is visible human blood on its mouth from when it bit onto "Tessa."
In the events of "Absolute End", Sparky can be observed wearing Beau's hat during its appearances up until the end credits.
In Fight Til' I'm Good Enough, Sparky is infected by Cyn through Uzi's tail, causing it to drastically increase in size and become green in color, before being returned to normal.
Personality[]
Sparky fiercely guarded the Cabin Fever Labs, killing off any artificial intelligence in its sight. However, when it detected that "Tessa" was actually a drone, it attacked her hand. Getting a taste for the human blood that came out, it got confused as it was getting mixed signals. In its confusion, its program saw Tessa's bitten human arm and caused itself to malfunction for biting onto a "human," short-circuited, and hit its head on a wall, knocking itself out.
After rebooting, Sparky seems to have deviated from its program, now trying to kill humans instead of just drones. It appears to like violence in general and likes to attack anything, especially Lizzy. Despite this, it has a selected few it does not harm with a notable individual being Serial Designation V, who it has been seen aiding during "Absolute End" and even playing chess with her. Additionally, as seen in the end credits, it doesn't seem to attack Lizzy anymore.
This is demonstrated even more in Fight Til' I'm Good Enough, where it also seems to have allied itself with Uzi and N, helping them take down the zombies, even protecting Uzi from some zombies while she was trying to get Thad out of rubble.
That is until it gets temporarily infected by Uzi's tail, turning it back to how it was was when it was first fighting V.
Biography[]
Season 1[]
Dead End[]
Sparky originally found Serial Designation N and threw him against the wall. Detecting that "Tessa" might not have been who she claimed, it detected that she was a drone (Cyn). Following its orders, it attempted to boot-loop her, then bit her arm when she tried to touch it.
Confused about the blood that came out of the wound following the sight of Tessa's arm, meaning it failed to follow its orders, Sparky malfunctioned. They then short-circuited and in its confusion, hit themself against the wall, temporarily knocking itself out.
Later in the episode, Sparky woke up, now with a newfound love for violence in general. Its eyes now red, it chased down Uzi, N, V, and "Tessa" and got into a 1-1 fight with V.
Absolute End[]
Sparky is first seen with V riding on their back, wearing Beau's hat, presumably being tamed by V. launching into a fight with Serial Designation J, aiding V in the fight.
On Lizzy's phone, she texts V and a picture is shown of V strangling Sparky to tears, presumably taking place after the end of "Dead End". Sparky then found Lizzy, and attacks her relentlessly, even when they all end up in space, using pressurized gas to get to her.
While falling back from the sky, the Red-eyed Sentinel is seen with an annoyed Lizzy's head in their mouth.
At the end of the episode, Sparky can be observed playing chess against V, implying the fact it continued to stay around her after the events of the show, almost like a companion.
Non-episodes[]
Fight Til' I'm Good Enough[]
Sparky can be seen in the classroom until Uzi's tail starts their zombie prank. From then on, it can be seen fighting alongside Uzi, N, and V killing the infected drones.
At one point, it gets infected by the zombie virus by Uzi's tail, making it grow giant. Eventually, once Uzi's tail puts an end to the prank, Sparky reverts back to its normal size, regaining its hat and being hugged by V.
