I present the Garidians, they are enslaved by the Romulan Star Empire and so could be a great addition to the new Romulan Republic.
I don't think they are canon but not much in Star Trek Online is. More information can be googled by using Garidian as the search word.
You can consult Memory Beta: https://memory-beta.fandom.com/wiki/Garidian

It wouldn't make much sense to have a copy of the Romulans with white hair though, I agree with kragtast. In my in-game headcanon, the Garidian Republic was one of the strongest splinter factions after the Star Empire fell into disarray. Since the Plebeians took over the Republic following the events of "A Final Unity" they were very sympathetic to D'Tan's movement and provided infrastructure and support to the young Romulan Republic. However, Garid had the misfortune of facing a wandering trio of Borg cubes which devastated their fleet at which point the young Republic was fortunately in a position of offering their help in return. The Garidians merged with the NRR and became a part of it. The Garidian Republican Guard remains in service as a small elite force within the Republican Navy with a few warbirds, one of which is the Avatrunei. Other than that though they traded autonomy for a place in the new unified Romulan state.

I just wish the Aliengen can let us name our Alien captain's species instead of just have Alien, than I'd be happy Kragtast. But it looks like the Garidians have slightly larger heads, yes we have full body manipulation open to us, well according to the screenshots of the Final Unity game. Just trying to point out differences between Garidians and Romulans even though they are offshoots of Vulcans.
Right Angrytarg?
I don't think there is much physical difference aside from the hair which could be theorized is a result of Garid's sun. They have the same head ridges as TNG Romulans, but we don't have much since we only ever see four Garidians and only one of them whole. The bigger head is probably due to AFU more simple 3D renderings.
For a bit unique flavour I decided that Garidians ships use the radiating (red) disruptor weapons from the Terran rep instead of green ones. They shoot green in the game, but I wanted a little bit of visual highlights. Unfortunately, no outfit on the Romulan side has a nice orange colour to it, it always ends up being very brownish.

But the Garidians seemed to be just a Romulan offshoot, so it's not really needed as seperate species. Alien or just Romulan would work.
Every company involved in A Final Unity is no more, who knows where the rights went to. It's a bit like "Secret of the Vulcan Fury"
I used just Romulan with white hair for mine. They really are just another Vulcan offshoot that settled further out.

That l must repeat the words that come without my knowledge.'
But yah, there is more love for playable Anars, Denobulans, and Xindi (even just the humanoid ones) that are screen canon.

Are you sure? I am quite certain one of my characters has a Bolian doctor (head of medical) BOFF. His name is Orlohn.

I got a VR Bolian boff from the VR duty officer recruitment mission this weekend. You must mean Benzite?
Benzites on the other hand, you can make an alien boff into a Benzite, but that's the only way to get a Benzite Boff.
