Summary: You are an evil prospector with an enchanted shovel.

Priority: 1 (Highest)

Mechanics:

You can select anyone to mine into their house apart from yourself or your fellow Covens. You will be subtly transported with them. (i.e. all targets against the both of you will be swapped, but there will be no notification produced to them) Coven members will also be effected by this transportation (i.e. if they visit your target, it would cause them to visit you instead.)

The following night, you will still be mined inside the player's house, you will be subtly transported with them again unless you choose to mine into someone else's house. You will also gain a new option for them: you can strike them with your shovel. If you choose to do so, they will be role blocked unless they are immune. (it would get the default message, i.e. 'Someone occupied your night. You were role blocked!')

If any target gets struck by your shovel twice (even if you mine to another target and come back to them later.) They will be role blocked and a basic attack will also be dealt to them. It would produce the special message: 'You were role blocked and attacked by the Miner!)

With the Necronomicon: 

Your shovel will be updraded to both role block and deal a basic attack on the first strike. You will also gain the new option of walking to your target's house and striking them with your shovel, rather than mining/transported with them (which would take an extra night to kill them.)

Sherrif: Your target is a member of the Coven! (Unless has Necronomicon)

Investigator: Your target could be an Escort, Transporter, Consort, Hypnotist or Miner.

Consigliere: Your target uses an enchanted shovel. They must be a Miner. I don't see any problems with this? It seems well-balanced? But it also just seems... I don't know. I'm gonna ABSTAIN. Strange? Weird? Not like the other Coven?

The transportation seems weird, but I'll tell you a few things it could do:

Sherrif / Investigator: If they investigate you, you can make them get results of another target to make yourself seem less suspicious (via your mining/transportation), however, if they are about to investigate someone else, you could mine into their house so they see your investigative results making them seem suspicious rather than you.

Vigilante: If a Vigilante plans to shoot you, you could mine into someone causing the Vigilante ot shoot the target of your choice instead.

Town Protective: If an important townie reveals, you could mine into them to get the Town Protective on you rather than them. Your coven can't actually kill the important townie whilst your mined into them (except with a rare strategy, such as Coven Leader controlled the Neutral Killing or a Vigilante into you).

Poisoner: Poisoner poisons someone, they claim poisoned, the Miner digs into the poisoneds' house which would cause the Doctor to target the Miner and the poisoned player to die.
