Unlocked Bethany and ran through it once with her, she's not bad! Her unique trick is that she can't utilize soul or black hearts as life. Instead they're like coins and keys and bombs, an inventory for them underneath the others (black hearts give 2). You can use the collected soul hearts to power your active item. So if your item has four pips and you have 8 soul hearts, you can use it twice. Active items still power up normally so you can have two filled pips and use two soul hearts to use it. If you want devil rooms, don't get hit.

Instead of the 100% devil room on the second floor, it was an angel room. Not sure if that's unique to her or just a possibility now. Got a devil room the next floor and took a new item (gives stat ups + controlled tears), but my angel room percentage never went to 0%. Never got another angel room though.

Bethany starts with the Book of Virtue, an active item that puts a glowing ball around her. The balls shoot tears along with you though I don't think they're tied to your stats. You can have quite a few balls going, circling around you like protective flies, but they can take hits and die. Not sure how many you can have going. Finished hard mode +hush +heaven +chest on my first run with her.

Found about a dozen or so new items so far but nothing incredible (okay rocket bombs were kinda neat). I appreciate that they updated some items too. (Stem Cells gives hp and shot speed instead of just hp now.)
