In AD ASTRA, they are now the descendants of the Janissaries (and they still use that name) who won their freedom from the Marian Empire during the Slave Wars. They still often live in systems that are near the Cilindareans, and are allayed loosely with them—sometimes—but they also have a not always friendly rivalry vibe going on. While the Cilindareans are as Nordic as the Mandaloreans in the Clone Wars episodes that feature them, the Janissaries are tall and fair-skinned, but with dark hair and unusually pale eyes.

Janissary pin-up art
Remember that the setting for AD ASTRA started as STAR WARS REMIXED; i.e., Star Wars 1,000 years after Return of the Jedi. In that setting, the clones, freed from Republic/Imperial oppression, founded their own martial society, got married, raised descendants, etc. Because the armor and training traditions of the clones were based on Mandalorian prototypes from Jango Fett, they had an interesting relationship with the Mandalorians as both rivals and yet also kindred spirits, and the clone descendant society was intermingled in space with Mandalorian worlds.
