The John Storm Franchise, is a series of original "climate and ocean" awareness stories being developed as graphic novel and screenplay adaptations. This is the 5th iteration of the Vampire theme, with romantic horror overtones, as a distinguished Carpathian scientist sets out to discover why ancient Egyptians believed in life after death. The original Count Dracula was created by the Irish writer Bram Stoker.

In this original John Storm adventure, Dan Hawk is the twenty-year-old electronics genius, the youngest crew member onboard the Elizabeth Swann, a solar and hydrogen powered trimaran. 

Dan is a capable programmer, into robotics and AI, thus he is living the dream. Where the Swann's onboard artificial intelligence, Hal, is about as advanced as it gets. And the vessel, being fully autonomous, is a floating robot of the high seas.

Dan is loyal to Captain Storm, and engages with his adventures with relish, though sometimes with trepidation at the heroic antics of his skipper.

In this fictional 'Universe' the designer of the trimaran is Professor Douglas Storm, a genius inventor. Captain Storm is DNA enhanced and has the BioCore™ brain implant, that allows him to communicate with the CyberCore Genetica™ super-nano-computer, and wirelessly with HAL, the Swann's onboard AI.

THE ILLUMINATI

Bavarian secret society founded in 1776, organized like the Freemasons. new order was Bund der Perfektibilisten, or Covenant of Perfectibility (Perfectibilists); he later changed it because it sounded too strange. On 1 May 1776, Weishaupt and four students formed the Perfectibilists, taking the Owl of Minerva as their symbol. The members were to use aliases within the society. Weishaupt became Spartacus. Law students Massenhausen, Bauhof, Merz and Sutor became respectively Ajax, Agathon, Tiberius and Erasmus Roterodamus. Weishaupt later expelled Sutor for indolence. In April 1778, the order became the Illuminatenorden, or Order of Illuminati, after Weishaupt had seriously contemplated the name Bee order.

AGE OF ENLIGHTENMENT

The Age of Enlightenment or the Enlightenment, also known as the Age of Reason, was an intellectual and philosophical movement that occurred in Europe, especially Western Europe, in the 17th and 18th centuries, with global influences and effects. The Enlightenment included a range of ideas centered on the value of human happiness, the pursuit of knowledge obtained by means of reason and the evidence of the senses, and ideals such as natural law, liberty, progress, toleration, fraternity, constitutional government, and separation of church and state.

The Enlightenment was preceded by the Scientific Revolution and the work of Francis Bacon and John Locke, among others. Some date the beginning of the Enlightenment to the publication of René Descartes' Discourse on the Method in 1637, featuring his famous dictum, Cogito, ergo sum ("I think, therefore I am").

NEW WORLD ORDER

The New World Order (NWO) is a conspiracy theory that hypothesizes a secretly emerging totalitarian world government. The common theme in conspiracy theories about a New World Order is that a secretive power elite with a globalist agenda is conspiring to eventually achieve world domination and rule the world through an authoritarian one-world government—which will replace sovereign nation-states—and an all-encompassing propaganda whose ideology hails the establishment of the New World Order as the culmination of history's progress. Many influential historical and contemporary figures have therefore been alleged to be part of a cabal that operates through many front organizations to orchestrate significant political and financial events, ranging from causing systemic crises to pushing through controversial policies, at both national and international levels, as steps in an ongoing plot to achieve world domination.

Before the early 1990s, New World Order conspiracism was limited to two American countercultures, primarily the militantly anti-government right, and secondarily the part of fundamentalist Christianity concerned with the eschatological end-time emergence of the Antichrist.
