The Earth is a nuclear wasteland. World War 3 had devastated man kind, but the remnants survive now in huge Mega-Cities dotted around the world. Millions of people pressed in upon each other in towering city blocks housing thousands and including everything a person needs to live without ever having to set foot outside their own block. In North America three Mega-Cities exist, Mega-City Two on the west coast, Texas City on the Gulf of Mexico and the largest Mega-City of them all, Mega-City One on the east coast stretching from the Canadian border down to the tip of Florida. To keep order in these sprawling megalopolis mankind gave over its law and order to the Judges. Trained from five years of age these men and women wield the power of judge, jury and executioner on the streets of the Mega-Cities. They are taught that emotions can get them killed and attachments like love or physical closeness are a hindrance. Living a celibate, almost monk like existence their God is the law and if they slip and allow their baser human desires to come through they can be dismissed from the force. Its a brutal world to live in where stepping outside the law can immediately find you imprisoned or dead, but with unemployment at 90% due to the automation new technology has provided the citizens they get bored easily and tend to take up new fads or crazy schemes just to pass the time. The Judges are all that stand between order and chaos and its an unrelenting and unforgiving job they do with little or no praise from the people they protect.
Mega-City One - it has survived the Apocalypse War with the Russian Mega-City of East-Meg One. It has survived Necropolis when the Dark Judges and their evil sisters came from a dead dimension to pass judgement on the living of ours. It has survived Judgement Day when the dead arose to cleanse the earth of the living and it has survived Doomsday when the crime lord Nero Narcos brought an army of battle droids t the city to take power from the Judges and in doing so almost wiped them out. The years have not been kind to Mega-City One, its citizens and Judges constantly under threat and the population level dropping as one disaster after another hits. The Judges to are now undermanned and over stretched even though large areas of the city are now unpopulated due to the events of previous years. The city is split into Sectors, each with its own Sector House where Judges eat, sleep and gear up before patrol. Each Sector House holds a barracks, armoury, jail, interrogation rooms, labs, garage and tech support. However for now the city in all its crazy life is as peaceful as it ever gets, a respite maybe, the calm before another storm.
Senior Judge Galen Stokes has been a Judge for 41 years, 15 of those being trained at the Academy of Law until he reached the age of 20 and then he was sent out onto the streets to bring law and order to the teeming masses. At 6'2, he is tall, well built and powerful looking. Trained to the peak of human physical fitness and skilled in unarmed combat and marksmanship. He has seen it all in his time, the undead, battle droids, ghosts, you name it, and yet he still survives. As hard and unforgiving as the city around him. He carries the marks of his battles though, his body scarred and battered. As he rides his Lawmaster bike along one of Mega-City Ones highways he is a symbol to the citizens that see him that although the Justice Department may have taken some knocks, its still alive and kicking and if they step out of line its more than possible they won't be.
Dressed in a Judges uniform of a tight black body glove zippered up the front from crotch to chin, body armour on the shoulders, heavy wearing combat boots and knee and elbow pads he is ready to take on the world. His helmet, black with red trim covering his entire head leaving only his mouth and jaw exposed, has a polarized visor, is resistant to small arms fire and has a built in respirator and commlink allowing him immediate communications with his Sector House or his partner. Armed with a Lawgiver Mark II pistol (a weapon with six different voice activated rounds. Standard execution, Incendiary, Armour Piercing, High Explosive, Ricocheted and Heat Seeking), a boot knife and a daystick for close in defence or attack, a Judge is also assigned a Lawmaster bike. This vehicle allows a Judge to quickly move around the massive city sector he is assigned to. It is armoured and has two front facing machine guns as well as an AI allowing its Judge to control it verbally if he is not aboard the bike.
For the last few months Stokes has been partnered with a newbie to the streets, Street Judge Laura Henderson. At 25 she is still young and after graduating from the Academy was posted to Customs duty at the docks. Finally being given her chance at a street assignment she was given to Stokes and she has a feeling if he washes her out her career is finished. It doesn't help that next to Stokes she looks small. She is 5'7 and slim and toned, athletic, her black skin and hair giving her an exotic look and a beauty that although she doesn't see it, she uses to put criminals off balance before she takes them down. So far Stokes hasn't been particularly forthcoming with his new partner and is as much a mystery to her as he is to the citizens around them as they patrol their Sector this day.
