Membership Services
Member Services

The Member Services section helps newcomers find their way around the CompuServe Information Service and helps novices and experts alike find detailed information about their account.  These services provide general and particular information about such topics as billing, logging on, ordering, and service agreement terms. They also enable parents to protect their children from innocent exposure to objectionable material.  Support services and Forum areas contain libraries of answers to frequently asked questions, and also enable members to post their own questions or compare notes with other members. Connect time spent using these services on CompuServe is not counted against your monthly five hours or added to your billing time, so feel FREE to explore.  (If there are network communications charges, however, they still apply.) To access the main menu for CompuServe's Member Services, choose GO from the Services pull-down menu and enter HELP.

Island of Kesmai
Island of Kesmai	Go Now: ISLAND

Many years ago, a group of magicians wanted to escape persecution. They settled on the Island of Kesmai where they experimented in the black arts. They created many strange creatures through their sorcery, which took place in catacombs deep underground. As their anger and their pride grew over the years, they determined to have revenge on their persecutors by calling up an ancient Dragon of Droon. They produced the dragon, but they were not able to control it. The dragon destroyed the laboratories and killed most of the magicians. It found its way to the temple located in the lowest levels of the catacombs, and it remains there to this day. Many of the creatures created in the laboratories escaped and have been living and multiplying ever since. You'll travel over many "acres" of land and encounter many computer-run characters during your adventure. The game consists of two segments: the Basic Game, which includes the regions of Kesmai, Leng, Oakvael and Axe Glacier; and the Advanced Game, which includes the regions of Torii, Annwn, Rift Glacier and Shukumei. The game is constantly evolving, and more mysterious lands are made available regularly.
