For now think of a backstory and a character. You should be able to figure out the Rifts universe via the wikia but if not I have a youtube series of some youtubers playing rifts.

Tehehe, got a loan from my roomate, bought the PDF, however there's a few things I'm confused about --
1.) What the hell is bonus skill points, how do you get and use them?
2.) Why do I start off with too little credits to purchase armor or weapons?
3.) I'm a Merc Soldier/Medic, I'm the healz.

HOLD THE F*CK ON MATE! Seriously I'm gonna make the skills, stats, rules, weapons, armor, psychic powers, and magic powers soon. I'm also gonna have to figure out how to make the circle tokens for your characters.

Do you need help with Roll20? I watched the whole intro video and played around a bit, I think I can help with tokens and stats and macros if you just tell me the mechanics. Then again, I don't even know if you can allow the players to add tokens or attributes in.

How do the rolls for stats work? I want to do that. Is it just d20. or d20 plus something?

3d6, if it's a 16 + roll another dice and add it, if that's a six, roll another dice and add it for all the stats. I can send you my PDF of the book if you want.
