So what is the status of the Romlan Star Empire currently in game? According to the sto wiki Sela is gone, so what is going on with them then? I need to know to roleplay my character in game.

broken worse than humpty dumpty after his great fall.......
Tal Shiar was stated to be in a tail spin after we took out the dude on New Romulus, so its splintered as they scramble for bits of power.... The Empire was already shattered into petty warlord states, made worse by Sela's abduction by the Iconians, and then the Tal Shiar losing control... Resources are so scarce the Imperial "Loyalists" could only convert a freighter for their precious Empress and assign a single Mogai as escort on a highly dangerous mission. I used "Loyalists" in quotes like that because Sela has made a career of failure, was exiled even, comes back with mercenary alien filth and uses them to hunt "her people" so she can grab power, names herself Empress and installs yes men in the senate, then fails AGAIN AND AGAIN, even to the point of a suicidally STUPID attack on a core UFP homeworld for the sake of butthurt nerdrage, before the Iconians abduct her. The fact that anyone would still follow her, imo, has to be the result of the mind control tech we ran into.... So they're not Imperial Loyalists at all, but Sela's.
All in all Cryptic did a fanfukintastic job of eliminating ANY salvageable bits of the RSE, short of maybe liberating Donatra. At this point, and I'm speaking as an Imperialist Romulan here, the diseased corpse is best finished quickly and mercifully, so that we can give rise to the Raptor Empire.(Which is my own personal RP solution to the TRIBBLE Romulans and Remans are facing now)
Thanks for the responses so far.
The original government seemed to be effective in its own way until Hobus... hated Sela though she was a moron.
NEEDS?
As far as im aware she isn't back in power of the RSE a short story after the iconion war on the website made it out shes in exile.

If anything happens with a geo-political change in the New Romulan Republic, it will be from the Traditionalists, and some conservative/reactionary Reformists.

forum goers might remember her as protogoth
*toasts* To honored comrades, and old friends.
Sela still needs to be sidelined, though.

she was banned some time ago for one of her mile long rants, basically someone managed to bait her and they both got slapped down.
With the close of the Iconian War, I do believe the RSE under Sela is in a neutral state with the Alliance. What the RSE and Sela is doing since the end of the Iconian War however has not been touched upon. IMO there's quite a lot of leeway to go in that area, most esp. since the RSE is not at war with the Alliance.
Why doesn't she just make a new account, for the sake of posting and participating in discussions? She was one of the rare people with some real passion around here.
I'll ask her but my guess is that doing so is a violation of the forum rules and worth another ban. She generally follows the rules.
also her answer:
Is there by any chance a transcript of the post that got her banned? I just can't imagine protogoth saying something that would warrant a permaban. And I know that our former "Community Manager" was all but too trigger happy, so..... *shrugs*
Your father was captain of a starship for twelve minutes. He saved 800 lives, including your mother's, and yours.
I dare you to do better.
Spend the next year or two in therapy reconstructing her sense of self would be my guess.
Yeah, sure. I see. Meh....I just miss people like her and a few others that stopped showing up around here. I think we can say that the Romulan sub-forum is pretty dead without her posts lately.
As for the RSE....well, I hope they completely drop any idea of doing anything with it, because....well....if they do anything RSE related, you just know it's going to be Sela again and I'm going to vomit.
Its something to do with their weird "Trek Alumni" voice actors fetish I think. I would like to see them do something with the Imperial Remnants but only to really finally close that plot arc off and absorb it in game and on map. Cryptic so butchered the Empire that its beyond salvageable, hell it was past that point even before the end of the RR arc. They just made too much of a bad joke out of it.
why uder? you can get a much better shot from above, plus you get to see her face as it disintegrates!
I may be late, but heartily joining the toast to "absent friends" (Protogoth, not Sela).
As for the RSE, bringing back Donatra would work (and that actress is:
1) ALSO a Trek alumnus, AND
2) a better actress, AND
3) has a MUCH better loved character (especially among the Romulan fans.
Mind you, Joanne Linville would be even better.
You really hate the Feds don't you? Makes me kinda wonder why you ever came into an MMO about a group of TV shows/Movies centered around the Feds.
We come in peace, SHOOT TO KILL!
The way time passes in STO....the game will be shut down before we see two years pass...I mean it took what...almost half a decade to move to 2410? I don't know if the game will be around in 2025
