In First Steps, unlike the other PFS Modules, you do not need to take a faction. It is designed to send you on missions for all the factions. Over the course of the first two modules, you will do one mission for each of the ten factions. You can reserve a single Trait until you have a faction so you can choose a Faction Trait if you like.

=GM Rolls=
Any rolls that are automatic, or pseudo automatic, such as Initiative, or if you say something like "every time we enter a room, I give it a quick scan", I make the rolls so we don't have to wait. Likewise, I generally make all the save rolls. All the rolls are above board, in spoilers to keep clutter to a minimum. I roll in either: (1) Alphabetic Order or (2) Initiative Order, as appropriate for the situation.
Any save whose result may result in very bad things for your character, I leave to you whenever possible. If you face a Save or Suck for instance, I don't like to roll the save for you. Your character, your karma, your luck . . .
=Player Discussion=
For any questions and concerns - I like to address these in the Discussion thread. That way everyone has the advantage of learning the answer to a specific question or ruling. When I post a ruling or what have you, I generally post a link to the PRD.
Note: I can be wrong, I'm not a perfect GM. When I am wrong, tell me and provide references. It is how we all learn.
