The Traitors & Faithfuls: New Blood Cast, Roles & Eliminated Contestants
The The Traitors: New Blood cast began with 22 civilian contestants, but the game has already changed dramatically after the first four episodes. This page tracks the current Traitors, remaining Faithfuls, eliminated contestants, role changes and the season's elimination history.
Spoiler warning: This page contains game results through Episode 4 and will be updated as new episodes reveal more information.
Current Game After Episode 4
After four episodes, all five eliminated contestants have been revealed as Faithfuls. The castle currently has three active Traitors: Tomica Adams, Joe Vanella and Katie Fites. Fourteen Faithfuls remain in the competition.
Current Traitors
Three contestants currently hold the secret Traitor role. Joe Vanella and Tomica Adams were selected as the original Traitors, while Katie Fites became the third Traitor after the Episode 3 accomplice twist.
Tomica Adams
United Airlines pilot • Boston, Massachusetts
Joe Vanella
Funeral director • New York
Katie Fites
Marketing professional • Jacksonville, Florida
Current Faithfuls
Fourteen Faithfuls remain after Episode 4. None of the Traitors has been successfully banished so far, meaning every Round Table elimination to this point has removed a Faithful.
Current Game Balance
| Group | Players | Status |
|---|---|---|
| Traitors | 3 | All three still in the game |
| Faithfuls | 14 | Still competing |
| Eliminated | 5 | All were Faithfuls |
The Faithfuls have not yet succeeded in banishing an actual Traitor. Both Round Table eliminations so far removed Faithful contestants.
Eliminated Contestants
Five contestants have left the game through the first four episodes. Three were murdered by the Traitors, while two were banished at the Round Table. Every eliminated contestant has ultimately been confirmed as a Faithful.

What Changed in the Game by Episode 4?
The biggest change came in the first week of the season. Joe Vanella and Tomica Adams began as the two original Traitors. The show then introduced a new recruitment mechanism involving Katie Fites and Xavier Scruggs.
Katie ultimately joined the Traitor group, while Xavier was eliminated through the recruitment twist. That left the castle with three active Traitors going into Episode 4.
Episode 4 then brought another major Faithful loss. Arisa Thomas was banished after the Round Table, while Logan Smith was later murdered by the Traitors. Both were revealed to have been Faithfuls.
The result is a game in which the Faithfuls currently have a significant numerical majority, but they have yet to correctly identify and banish a Traitor.
Episode 5
The next episode is scheduled for October 8, 2026. This page will be updated with any new murder, banishment, role change or other confirmed game development after the episode airs.
