As the Patrioteer progressively fell from grace, Will held fast for as long as he could, looking on as others dropped out. He could see some of the reasons behind Patrioteer’s methods, even though he couldn’t bring himself to wholly agree. The last straw had been when the Patrioteer ordered him to bring down a building that served as the company office of a notorious crime lord, disregarding the dozens of civilian employees inside. After refusing and being heavily penalized for it, Will simply gave up and left the group. | As the Patrioteer progressively fell from grace, Will held fast for as long as he could, looking on as others dropped out.

| − | + | After ending his tenure with the group, Will tried going solo. He formalized the hero name of Noble, which he thought up during his years with the Wardens. Getting his costume made, he registered the new identity with the government and went about doing cape-work. But the will was gone, and Patrioteer’s decisions were uncomfortable memories, echoing at the back of his mind. On his parents’ insistence, William managed through university, subsisting on various “cape” grants and bonuses he gathered as he heroed. But this lifestyle split proved harder to manage than he thought, and at one point, he was forced to choose. As much as he wanted to continue in costume, he considered studies a better and more long-term investment, so he went on to finish his degree and put Noble on hiatus. While doing his studies, he met his former team-mate and friend Audrey Evans, the former "Psioni-Gal", in the same university. They grew closer over time as they, and eventually began dating by the time they finished. | |
Up until the Qularr invasion of 2009, Will had lived a relatively quiet life, working and unobtrusively mixing among the common folk. The aliens have forced him out of his comfort, and to return back into the caped world. Joining with the sweeping wave of effort, Will helped beat back the Qularr, at the cost of getting his nature as a metahuman publicly revealed. It also caused him to finally propose to Audrey. While he had managed to preserve his exact caped identity a secret from the general public, he had to deal with a great number of inquiries from friends, colleagues, and acquaintances afterwards. Deciding to remain partially active as Noble since the incident, Will still runs patrols and missions to this day, while at the same time managing his off-duty routine and his fame as a meta-powered individual among the people in his life. | Up until the Qularr invasion of 2009, Will had lived a relatively quiet life, working and unobtrusively mixing among the common folk.
