Evening!
I'm Amber and I have for you one (1) Romulan commander and former Tal Shiar agent, Irian t'Aumne. Irian is based on one of the characters I play in Star Trek Online, and everything that happens in that game's plot has happened in her world (as has everything in canon), but I've relied more or less entirely on Diane Duane's Rihannsu novels for worldbuilding. This means that a few things are different; since the first novel was written before TNG came out, the Remans didn't exist, and Remus was a totally different type of place. If you want more details, I've got details.
If you have not read the Rihannsu novels for some reason and you're at all a fan of the Romulans or TOS, you need to go do this thing. Right now. They're excellent. I'm finishing a reread right now and just falling in love with them all over again. (Disclaimer: I love Diane Duane and everything she touches is gold to me. But I'm not alone in my assessment of the quality of these books, either.)
Irian is from the year 2409, over twenty years after the destruction of the Romulan homeworlds, and she affiliates herself with a group of Romulans who want to create a society free of the secrecy and backstabbing that characterized their people for some time. Their leader is also a Unificationist, so there's that. The Tal Shiar, on the other hand, wants to recreate the old Empire, and there's quite a conflict going on between the two groups. Irian does some work with the Federation, although she'll get grumpy if you call her Starfleet. Needless to say, she's not inclined to be hostile to anyone on the Enterprise, and will probably be half-annoyed, half-amused if anyone assumes as much.
All of the lengthy details are in her app, which I couldn't stop writing, so just a tl;dr warning in advance. If you need to get ahold of me for any reason whatsoever, my contact info is here. Feel free to add me on Plurk; I haven't been on in months, since this is the first time I've been in a game in quite a while, but I intend to start using it again.
In closing, I'm just gonna leave this here because it's really important.

The Star Trek Tik Tok was pretty much required here. I actually just saw it when it came up on my tumblr dashboard the other day (coincidentally enough, Diane Duane reblogged it), and did not know such a thing existed. Other people in the fandom are much more clever than I am. XD
I'll be on plurk tonight, so I'll add you back for sure!

Fantastic! I look forward to getting to know you and Irian. In addition to my Star Trek muses, I have a super soldier, a cowgirl, a Doctor's Companion, and a lost astronaut, so if any CR in particular calls to you let me know. :)
