Okay, at first this setup was a lot more breakable, but then FA helped me tone it down a bit. Like a lot. RC didn't do much in the process but he helped me come up with a mechanic and that's fun!
Also, huge thanks to nancy for helping this go smoothly while I was on vacation.

Irina: Irina used to be a 1-shot Neighbourizing Easedropper, however FA had concerns about the integrity of the role. She wanted me to check in with RC about it and I did, RC just didn't like how powerful it was. He didn't like the idea of a PT Cop either. So I had 2 solutions, a 1-shot Rolestopper to combo with the 1-shot Roleblocker or, well, the Hydra Cop. I really couldn't come up with a better name for it at the time, but hey, you make do what what you can come up with.
In general the hydra mechanic is something I'm somewhat proud of and I wanna find new ways to use it. I think I found the next step
Karasuma: This used to be a gunsmith but got cut down to a 1-shot Roleblocker to weaken the power. Stil fits the flavour, nothing much here to say.
Overall that was a role I was somewhat comfortable designing since I'm familiar with the flavour. Marriage powers are really simple. PT Cop upgrade for Irnia, and Full Roleblocker powers for Karasuma, nothing with too much thought developed behind.

Doomguy and the BFG9000: This was a fun role to design. First I drafted the power names, I didn't really know what they would do at first. I'd figured I could just come back to it with a better picture of what the setup was and proceed from there. First it was origonally a PR with just a lot of different abilities. But then I did some research and I came up with better ones that affected the game overall. For example, Pistol was a fairly weak ability with little impact (because it was a pistol). Chainsaw was an ability that was meant to cut down on spamposting. Chaingun due to how quickly those fire, was a 1-shot self-motivator. Rocket Launcher due to splash damage would reveal neighbourhoods. That only made sense to me. Plasma Gun I came up with the Sane Investigation because it's a fairly weak weapon in my opinion, but it's decent? So there. And Shotgun was something that came to mind when you shoot someone with it, and they become unrecongizable, but somehow still live? Eh, it was crazy. Unmaker is a weapon that can only be used on Aliens. So naturally it was loyal, and stopped any town lynches. The BFG9000 was meant to be the strongest thing in the game, and it was. It was a Parity Cop. That's pretty strong for a Micro especially endgame. This was fun to design.

Orpheus: This is probably my favorite role to design for this game. I loved writing the flavour for it, and I loved how it turned out. Like, it just looks super town to me, though I kinda dreaded the thought of having to write poetry for this. Atleast 2 people roleblocked it
But either way, I'm kinda sad this role didn't get to it's full potential. It didn't need a fakeclaim, it could just claim it's real abilities and be done with it.
Eurydice: Since Irina was origonally a 1-shot Neighbourizing Easedropper, the Neighbourizier here was meant to counter that. Give it some investigative power and bam decent scumrole.
Upgrades are also fairly self explanitory. But this role is kinda perfect just by itself so there was uncentive to not get the marriage upgrade, because what would result from it would look scummy.
--
Yandere: This was another favorite role to design and perhaps probably the strongest thing town had? It's really busted, but really limited to one target. But it didn't used to be a Seraph Knight. It used to be a Day 1 Doctor. And then FA was like "You should make it a Seraph Knight." OKAY LETS DO THAT. But yeah, loved writing the flavour for this, loved the design overall, but I think it's a little too busted along with marriage upgrades.
--
The Power of Love: This was origonally a Fuser that could temporarly give Marriage upgrades to someone. Except that was busted. So it became a Macho Friendly Neighbour. And mastina annoyed me with the BP claim but hey, that's proper play.
--
Sayaka Miki: At this point, FA was like "If you wanna keep the investives the way they are, you should give scum a Ninja." So I gave them a Strongman AND a Ninja. At first Sayaka was just an Amnesiac PT Cop. But then FA was like "That's really weak power for scum, make it a rolecop" so I did. The claim overall still looks Towny.
Kyouko Sakura: This is the Ninja with a Loud Fruit Vendor that I shamelessly stole from mastina. YOU HEAR THAT MASTINA? SHAMELESS! Tho tbh, I don't think the Loud Fruit Vendor would look towny if you really thought about it. It was mostly something that would be like "Just in case you get tracked, you get to give the tracker a result of you going somewhere so the Tracker doesn't get wierded out on why you went nowhere in a Role Madness game."
If these two got married, then I could see this marriage buff just carrying them for the rest of the game along with Orpheus and Eurydice.

Buffy Summers: OKAY NACHO AND TAMMY I REALLY FEEL LIKE I FUCKED UP WHEN IT COMES TO DESIGNING THIS I'M SORRY PLEASE FORGIVE ME
But this was origonally a motion detector and a BG, I could have kept it that way except I felt like there was too many investives. So I cut it down to just the BG. The marriage upgrade is something I'm proud of and works for this tho, FA had the idea of penalzing ywall for shooting town so...
Angel: Yeah, I really don't like doctors, and I think they're a bit strong? I like BGs and Jailkeepers better. And with the flavour I guess this fits.
Overall I feel like the flavour and the marriage upgrades work for this.
--
Kevin: Around here I was starting to run out of options, so I just gave them something wierd like a Gladiator and made it weaker. It's also really easy to turn it into a Kingmaker so...
Nazz: Just wierd running out of options here. Don't mind me.
--
Jason: This came out well, though I was kinda struggling what to do with it first, but the way it came out it was just fine. Was origonally an Element Cop upgraded into a Flavour Cop along with the Element Cop, but was switched around.
Medea: Same thing. Just a much more reflexcive role more then anything.
--
And yeah, that's about it.
On a serious note, you had a OH NO TRAUMATIC BACKSTORY. God, it's been awhile since I watched Assassination Classroom and read the manga, BUT hey, it's okay. I can do this! Let's see here umm... Your parents were dead but good news is you killed their killer! So that's nice. Then you were found by some person whom then decided to turn you into an Assassin. So that's nice. God this sounds like Batman all over again...Anyways, moving on! Oh look! The plot changes and becomes not Batman! You decide to teach at school after a while. And that's nice. You train a classroom full of assassins who want to kill their teacher! Well, not you, but someone else. You also met Karasuma, who is now your husband. And he's pretty lit too. Either way, your students call you Professor Bitch, and you have genuinely fallen in love with Karasuma as you continued teaching. And then you got married the end 10/10 ending.
