When falling from a certain height, my character often executes a roll landing. Sometimes this gets her into line of fire or off of ledges — and into line of fire. Is there a way to prevent this roll and land into a normal crouch?
I've tried moving in the direction opposite to where I'm falling and releasing movement controls entirely, but it still seems that she will decide to roll pretty much at random. What am I missing?

You can't prevent a landing motion. You can either roll or turn the roll into a slide by turning the camera perpendicular to your direction of motion.
While this is speculation, common sense suggests that the roll is required for a reason: to break your momentum. Rolling is a standard way of minimizing damage from an impact, so it makes sense that it would be required. Think of it as your Tenno not being offered the option to land without rolling because it would break his legs. Of course in some situations like falling straight down this doesn't really make sense, but its the best they could do.
