As the conservationist takes on more naval and pseudo military missions, Dan Hawk designs various suits for his Captain. This costume doubles as a diving suit, designed to protect the activist from the cold, shark attacks and other potential threats while he is not at the helm of the Elizabeth Swann. The suit acts like a bullet proof vest, also absorbing shock from explosions and Taser strikes.

John Storm is the protagonist and main character in the Kulo Luna story. He is around 40 years old. When younger, he was keen on sports diving and rock climbing. His current interests center around conservation of species and renewable energy, such as solar and hydrogen powered transport.

This is his first ocean adventure, in what is to become many more. And each time the Captain of the Elizabeth Swann takes on more demanding missions, sometimes leaving him frustrated, where all he wants is to help conserve the ocean and the planet.

He is also an amateur anthropologist and a practical engineer, but he'd never let on - except when marveling at the technology in the Elizabeth Swann.

John (sometimes Johnny to his very close mates) likes a challenge and gets the job done.

John's uncle was Professor Douglas Storm. His uncle supported John in his ambitions and taught him a great deal, helping to prepare his nephew for the unexpected. Then, in mysterious circumstances, his uncle disappeared, presumed dead, leaving John the Elizabeth Swann, and putting George Franks in place as a trustee, and more.

As a boy, John wished he was stronger and smarter. He marveled at the natural world, at how strong Leopards were, pound for pound. And ants. They fascinated John. He could not work our why it is that they are so strong. That is how John got started on his DNA collection, and the Ark. He spent many years on digs in Tanzania, in the Olduvai Gorge. The Cradle of Mankind. To satisfy his thirst for knowledge of early man.

Later in his adventures, John comes face to face with Cleopatra's mummy, and the woman who was cloned from her 2,000 year old DNA, finding a strong bond with the reborn Queen. He also discovers the bones of the pirate, Henry Morgan. And eventually, having confiscated the replication technology from Neuwelt Rittertum, finds he can manipulate his own DNA, to become very much stronger and smarter.

Some time after his brush with a rogue division in the CIA and DARPA, Dan improves his DNA further. Dan also creates a bullet proof suit for John, since he is no longer just battling sharks and pirates, but dodging full metal jacket projectiles from angry machine guns. Putting himself in harms way more than his crewmate would like.
