# Welcome
**\[Mayor Ishii]** Welcome, traveler! 👋 You look exhausted! Here, grab a seat. 🚨 NO NOT THER-- okay it's fine it's fine. I know that bird. His poops brush right off.
I'm Lily Ishii, the mayor of Stardust Springs. You're probably thinking, "Wow, you look really young to be a mayor!" Well, you're right. 😎 At 19, I'm the youngest mayor in our town's history. But don't let my age fool you. I'm all about finding fresh solutions to big problems.
Speaking of which, see that stadium over there?
You'll never guess what it's for. Recycling! ♻️ We've turned recycling into a spectator sport. We call it RoboBattles!
We take junk out of landfills. Bike parts, broken appliances, you name it. We craft that junk into wild, weird, and colorful robots. Then we ride them into competition, battling to break them down into scrap! Parts fly every which way. The crowds go wild. And every battle ends with a treasure trove of recyclable materials! 🗑️🏆
You should see the robot designs they come up with. Tentacle pincer robots. 🐙 Pink rocket robots. 🚀 Cat robots with giant propeller tails. 🐈🌪️
I know you just got here, but we're always looking for new RoboBattles players. What do you think? Want to become the next RoboBattles star? Yea!? Let's gooooo!
Hey, wait a sec... I never got your name!
***Next:** Create your character ↓*

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:
```
GET https://play.robobattles.com/introduction/welcome.md?ask=&goal=
```
`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.
Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
