Removes: Necronomicon Ability: Gains Basic Defense

This made the Coven Leader very powerful. The control ability is strong enough, but the basic defense to very frusterating for the Mafia/Serial Killers to deal with. This also made the Coven Leader a direct upgrade to the Vigilante, Vampire Hunter, Mafioso, Godfather and Serial Killer.

Modified Mechanic: Necronomicon Ability: Deal a Basic Attack to your target

The Coven Leader will now be able to choose whether they wish to deal a basic attack or not. The controlling and revealing mechanics did not fit in with automatically killing your targets, since most controlled people would die anyways, and would also negate the revealing ability.

Modified Mechanic: Necronomicon Priority

The Coven Leader is one of the few roles that is already useful without a killing buffer. The Coven Leader now role priority 3 for obtaining the necronomicon.

Added Mechanic: Necronomicon Ability: Your controls are invisible

Hiding the controlling mechanic works in synergy with the ability to control people, since that means the Coven Leader can control the same person to confuse their target. Spies can counter this ability to hide controls by seeing who the Coven visits. Since there's not way for the Spy to tell which role from the Coven visits which target, the Spy doesn't automatically negate the "hidden controls" ability.
