One of my members asked me about being able to play against the "computer". What would something like this require, and how difficult would it be to implement?

What I've got in my mind is this:

The player goes to the battle arena, and when he chooses to start a new battle, the can select from a dropdown list of computer controlled characters. I'm thinking it could be done with a script of some sort where it randomly selects an action every turn, and automatically tries to heal itself when it's health drops below a certain level depending on if it has the proper inventory.

Something like this would be awesome, and would be excellent for the users who can normally only get on late at night when no one else is really on.
