I disagree with all of these ideas, except Marshal, who could be added to Salem.
Doctors don't spray magic potion on their targets to give them iron skin or anything. A vigilante could shoot a bullet into their target's head and a doctor could fix him right back up. The vigilante had actually killed someone, but the doctor brought him back.
Bodyguard was a toughie. If you were healed by a doctor the same night you successfully killed off an attacker, you could live. While this seems horribly OP (which it actually may be), reliable Doctors are hard to find anyway, and the combo could easily be broken with a consort.
Vigilantes shooting someone and the BG taking the shot and bringing the Vigilante down with it should be kept as-is.
Crusader is a fine role. It's hard to play, but it's fine. If it only killed evil roles, then it would be an overpowered Bodyguard. No, there needs to be a drawback to it and the role itself is okay and doesn't need a change.
I would like to see the Marshal, separate from the Crusader.
Trapper is also fine, it's also a modified BG which keeps yourself alive while killing others. The Botanist's abilities are too wonky and hard to understand, and it really only seems like a Doctor, but weaker.
The Crusader and the Trapper works completely different from Doctor and BG. That is good for the game because there's more variety to it, other than the standard (target is granted Powerful defense), it's just done in different ways, and that's fine.
