The Judges are a worldwide law force that replaced the Police forces and most governments in the countries or cities they control. Typically led by a Chief Judge and a hand picked council, the Judges take total control over the citizens acting as judge, jury and executioner.

History[]

The Judges took their roots in America as an idea of Eustace T. Fargo, shortly before the Atomic War between 2027 and 2031, to combat the rise in violent and extreme crimes and to speed up the justice process. Initially opposed by a majority of congress, the idea was eventually put into fruition by President Gurney. Shortly after the Judges were equipped with new armour reminiscent of biker gear, motorcycles (Which would eventually become Lawmasters) and weaponry.

The idea of the Judges was quickly adopted by other countries, their authoritative rule only tightening after the Atomic War. In many places such as Mega-City One, Police served in a small number alongside the Judges until they were finally retired in the very early 2100's.

Judges are typically indoctrinated by age five and put through years of rigorous training before gaining Cadet status and then only a small margin going on to collect a full eagle. Judges themselves are not above the law and those that break it will face varied punishments depending on the severity of the crime, those that commit the greatest crimes will typically be sent to a penal colony of some kind such as Titan. Over the years the range of Judges in different departments grew, gaining Medics, Teks and even Psychics.
