New Sub-Alignment: Outlier
Outlier is a brand new Sub-Alignment for Town, Coven, and Neutral. Outlier roles will not be able to spawn naturally in games, they will need to be directly confirmed in a roledeck.
New Role: Catalyst (Town Outlier)
Catalyst has the ability to Overcharge a player at night, this allows that player to use their ability twice during the following day or night.
New Role: Cultist (Coven Outlier)
Cultist has the ability to Convert a member of the Town onto the Coven faction. Unlike a Town Traitor, this converted Townie will be able to wield the Necronomicon alongside their usual abilities.
New Role: Pilgrim (Town Outlier)
Pilgrim is a standard Townie with no abilities
New Role: Covenite (Coven Outlier)
Covenite is a standard Coven member with no abilities, they can wield the Necronomicon to kill at night
New Mode: Casual
In Casual, all players in the lobby will vote for which Roledeck they would like to play from a curated pool, the Roledeck with the most votes wins
The pool of Roledecks in Casual will be updated frequently
Town Traitor has been removed as a standalone mode
Ranked Practice now features the same Roledeck voting system as Casual. A variety of test lists will be active allowing us to collect data on balance, and which versions of Ranked players are most interested in
Every 2 weeks All Any will be replaced for the weekend with an alternative All Any mode. Stay tuned to see what they are!
New Roledeck Mechanic: Dual Buckets
You can now add 2 roles/role buckets into the same slot of a Roledeck, creating a Dual Bucket
An example of this would be a "Neutral Apocalypse/Neutral Killing" Dual Bucket, allowing any roles from either to spawn from the same slot
New Modifier: Election
Before Trial begins in a day, the town will be able to elect a player as a "Sovereign"
The result of the election is based on plurality instead of majority, meaning the player with the most votes by the end of the election will win even if they don't have majority
The election will only occur if there is not a currently alive Sovereign
The Sovereign will gain +2 votes. If they are a member of the Town faction they will no longer be able to use their abilities, if they are not their abilities will now be astral
New Modifier: Grace Period
All abilities that can kill are disabled during the first night
The Necronomicon will not appear until the start of the second day
New Modifier: All Outliers
Outlier roles can now spawn in all "Random" buckets (RT, RC, RN and Any)

Admirer Overhaul
At the start of the game, a random Townie will be marked as your Obsession. You will learn their sub-alignment, but not their identity
You may Admire another player at night to see if they are your Obsession, if they are - your Admire ability will be replaced with a Care ability
When Caring for your Obsession at night, a Barrier will be placed on both you and them. This ability has 2 charges
If your Obsession dies before you find them, they will be rerolled. If they die after they find them you will be left without an Obsession

Vampire Overhaul
Vampire is now a Neutral Outlier, and is also Unique
During the night you may choose to Drain another player, dealing a Basic Attack to them
During the night you may choose to Convert another player. If they are a member of the Town faction they will be converted to the Vampire faction, keeping their original role. If they are not, you will instead Drain them. This ability has 3 charges.
If you die, another member of the Vampire faction will become the new Vampire
While Solo, you will have Basic Defense and Detection Immunity. You will lose these if you have at least one teammate.
