Where can I get alien boffs for a Republic character?

I can't find any on the exchange, and they're not offered by the normal personnel officer on New Romulus.

We need tales of optimism, of heroes, of courage and goodness now as much as we’ve ever needed them."

    Have you joined a faction (Fed / KDF) yet? I get them now and then from doff missions for both Fed and KDF. You should be able to buy a Fed or KDF alien depending on your faction, there are no Romulan-specific aliens.

    None Romulan-specific? Well, that's disappointing. Are there costume options that work for both Romulan and Federation boffs? That way I can at least make a common uniform for my crew.

    Romulan-faction alien boffs don't exist, unfortunately. The only options are KDF and FED. I'm not sure what the exact justification is but I'm sure there's reasons.

    Plan B to make them more ROM faction appropriate is to use non-aligned clothing options like the intel uniform (c-store), brown/black winter event jackets, or fleet mining set (T3, with mine tailor).
