There's no mention of 'Sarah Death' as far as I can see, anywhere in Calibre exposed metadata. It was only by Googling that I realised that she's the English translator.
I've seen EPUBs with Translator defined as a Creator role, I've also seen it as a Contributor role. Open the original EPUB with Sigil and have a look with its metadata editor tool (for me that's F8).

I've no idea what a Kobo (or the various Kobo plugins) do with the MARC roles in Creator and Contributor metadata elements. And, the only way I know to get the MARC roles into an EPUB is by editing the opf file directly.
