 # Spigot Tyrant Design Log
 
+## 2026-08-14 — Tyrant succession completed
+
+- Completed US-002 with player-killer transfer, recent-player environmental succession, former-holder avoidance, pending offline confirmation, and distinct replacement Vigilante selection.
+- Tyrant death clears all classes, Followers, cooldowns, item readiness, purchases, levels, and choices before granting the successor one starting choice.
+- Added death-event integration, server announcements, and a scoreboard-team-backed red Tyrant name and glowing outline that is restored on login and removed on pause or shutdown.
+- Verified succession attribution, random exclusion, reign cleanup, role separation, death integration, and red presentation with the Gradle suite.
+
+## 2026-08-14 — Tyrant succession implementation started
+
+- US-002 begins with test-first killer and environmental succession, reign-wide cleanup, replacement Vigilante selection, and red Tyrant presentation.
+
+## 2026-08-14 — Administrative lifecycle completed
+
+- Completed US-001 with permission-gated `/tyrantadmin` start, status, pause, resume, and confirmed reset operations.
+- Initial Vigilantes may be assigned explicitly or selected among eligible recently active players, with offline selections persisted as pending confirmations.
+- Pause/resume preserves progression and assignments, shifts every cooldown, participation, inactivity, and pending-selection deadline, and invokes managed effect suppression/restoration.
+- Added detailed operator status output and verified lifecycle, timer shifting, permissions, confirmation safety, candidate filtering, metadata, and effect hooks with the Gradle suite.
+
+## 2026-08-14 — Administrative lifecycle implementation started
+
+- US-001 begins with test-first game start, pause/resume deadline freezing, permission-gated administration, inspection, and confirmed reset behavior.
+
+## 2026-08-14 — Tyrant class assignment completed
+
+- Completed US-004 with `/tyrant assign <class> <player>`, purchased-class authorization, UUID state, one holder per class, and one Tyrant-side class per player.
+- Preserved dual alignment so Vigilantes and Followers can hold a Tyrant-side class, while rejecting the Tyrant and opted-out targets.
+- Added reassignment and reign cleanup for class cooldown/item state, online assignment/removal notices, and login control reminders.
+- Verified assignment constraints, dual alignment, cleanup, commands, notifications, and reminders with the Gradle test suite.
+
+## 2026-08-14 — Tyrant class assignment implementation started
+
+- US-004 begins with test-first purchased-class authorization, one-holder constraints, dual alignment, reassignment cleanup, and reign-wide removal.
+
+## 2026-08-14 — Tyrant progression completed
+
+- Completed US-003 with exact Tyrant-on-Vigilante kill attribution, level and choice rewards, pause guards, one-time purchases, and reign reset behavior.
+- Added `/tyrant choices` status output and `/tyrant buy <unlock>` with durable atomic state updates and clear failure feedback.
+- Verified progression, duplicate purchase, authorization, paused-state, reset, command presentation, metadata, and persistence behavior with the Gradle test suite.
+
+## 2026-08-14 — Tyrant progression implementation started
+
+- US-003 begins with test-first kill attribution, one-time unlock purchases, and player-visible choice status.
+
 ## 2026-08-14 — Configuration and persistence completed
 
 - Completed US-012 with validated defaults for ranges, timers, effects, items, messages, and mob restrictions, including runtime Bukkit section parsing.
