Re: questions about character creation

Hello I have a three quick questions concerning character construction for the Pathfinder organized play. I am not sure where to post these questions so I am trying here.

1) On page 15 of the pathfinder players guide, it says a character can choose a faction feat in addition to any feats they normally get from race and class. If I am reading this correctly a 1st level human cleric would get three feats at first level provided one of them is a faction feat. Am I correct?

2) Concerning Languages. Elves get Common and Elvish for free, and Dwarves get Common and Dwarvish for free at first level. Then they get a number of bonus languages according to their Int. modifier.
What about the Human races, or Nationalities? Would a Chelaxian get Chelax and common (Taldoran) for free? Or a Kelish from Quadria? Would they get Kelish and Common for free before choosing their bonus languages from their intelligence modifier?

3) If I am making a cleric character who is from Quadira and is part of that faction, Could I take the scimitar master feat? Would it grant the cleric proficiency with the scimitar?

Any help and thoughts would be appreciated thanks.

1) You are correct.

2) There is a thread where this is covered. I believe the response was that Humans start with Common.
3) You could take the Scimitar Master Feat as any Qadiran could. It would not grant you proficiency.
