What seems like an eternity ago, Bill Roper worked at Blizzard on games like Warcraft, Starcraft and Diablo. He left that company to form Flagship Studios, which buckled under their MMO Hellgate: London, and from there he went on to Cryptic Studios and worked together with them on Champions Online.
Now it's time for Roper to move on from Cryptic as well. In a post on the official Champions Online-site, he writes that his "entrepreneurial spirit has become restless, and I've made the difficult decision to move on and look for new opportunities."
