The Judge
An alien race that invaded and subjugated humanity. They now take residence on Earth in several main hubs around the globe, primarily on top of major cities that they've almost completely scrapped down to the bedrock. After the initial culling to get humanity in line, the world was thusly informed that they are a righteous race that doesn't kill indiscriminately.
Resist, and you will be executed.
Submit, and you will be taken to a labor camp to work until you die.
The third option, which they consider to be the most humane, is to voluntarily board a suicide bus and go to sleep forever.
One caveat - anyone with imperfections or physical defects (glasses, diseases, handicaps) will be euthanized. It's considered a mercy killing.
They come in two primary forms:
The sturdier, thicker breed that act primarily as soldiers and officers.
And the slender, more elegant ruling race.

Their soldiers man the suicide buses, the work camps, and the scouting parties sent to gather up any wayward humans they happen to find. They also accompany massive warehouse-sized ships that act like magnets, seeking out metal in any form but especially in buildings and large equipment. These scrapper ships are known to rip entire houses and stores out of the ground by the foundation, crushing them into dense matter and killing everyone inside.
Typically the soldiers will sweep buildings for life before allowing it to be scrapped, some people consider death by crushing a better alternative than a life of slow starvation and grueling manual labor in an encampment.
