Three ways this can go

1) People believe you're Unity and not just a Townie stalling for time, and everyone goes AFK or starts using ToS as a chatroom with awkward night phase pauses. Game ends after Night 15. No one really cares.
2) People don't believe your unity, and that you're just a townie who wants the mafia to roleblock themselves by going AFK or an arsonist trying to make a big brain play. You get lynched. No one really cares.
3) People believe you're unity. You get shot for trying to make the game boring. No one really cares.

You could also not claim to be Unity, in which case, congratulations! You're literally a better version of survivor because you don't have to make it to end game, just close enough to endgame.

Either way, seems like it'd just be boring.

On paper the idea is interesting, but once you think about it, it sadly breaks up quite fast.

At first I looked at it like a Hex Master type role but Hex master is always a target, unity is someone no one will target as they have no reason to kill you, why would they kill what amounts to an instant win button? Some might even outright protect you as unlike revealed mayor, you can have reliable protection from any TP, others might try killing you to make the game more challenging.

Overall the role would be just too game breaking, people will either ignore you or make you their main target, no in between essentially removing every faction and changing it into a game for or against unity, that's it.

Sorry but the ability to unite any role at all is just too game changing, vampires get a pass as it only works on town and even then they are controversial.
