Appearance
Mort is an action figure styled after a mummy. He has a blue body covered in criss-crossing bandages. On top of his head he wears something wrapped in bandages. This could be something inspired by a Pschent, a headpiece worn by Egyptian pharaohs. Mort's head is square-like, and his top and bottom jaws are separated by his exposed teeth that he always bares. He has large ears near the top of his head, his eyes are a fluorescent yellow-orange, and he drools something green out of his mouth. A completely charming visage. His strong arms and enormous pectorals, in contrast to his smaller legs and near lack of hips, suggest that his strength lies in his upper body. His chest is composed of two "doors" acting as pecs that can open up to eject various objects such as a scary face or a heart with a hook in it, along with a burst of confetti. He has a large button on his back that can be pressed to unleash "The Super Miraculous Mort Surprise v2," which ejects a purple face with spiky blue hair and sharp teeth. According to Mort, this move can only be used once in his life.
Personality
Mort is shy and always under the weight of his depression, as he's ashamed of his looks and hates being bothered when he is in his coffin. The longer Chibi-Robo helps Mort, though, the more the mummy reveals himself to be a romantic, and as someone who would sacrifice himself to protect the one he loves.
Storyline
He is first met when Chibi-Robo interacts with the shoe box under Jenny's bed. He will climb out of the box and try to scare Chibi-Robo with a spring that pops out of his chest. He expresses his sadness to Chibi-Robo and climbs back into the box. After Chibi-Robo shows Pitts' red shoe to Mort, he will put a staircase in front of the castle. Once Princess Pitts is rescued, he will move over to the desk in the room, commenting on how it would be nice if a nectar flower would grow in the planter. Once Chibi-Robo plants a seed bought from the Chibi-House and it grows, Mort attempts to pick the flower but it dies in his hands. At this point, Mort morosely stays under the bed, but Chibi-Robo can give him Bandages from the Kitchen to refresh his appearance and the Ticket Stub from the Bedroom to hear him reminisce. Both of these will give Chibi-Robo Happy Points.
When Sunshine wrecks Princes Pitt's castle, Mort stops him by having Chibi-Robo press the button on his back, which activates "The Super Miraculous Mort Surprise v2." When Sunshine sees this, he walks away laughing and stops attacking the castle, and Mort and Princess Pitts fall in love. Chibi-Robo is rewarded with 200 happy points and the Mort & Princess Sticker. Later, Chibi-Robo can go under the bed, where he will be introduced to Mort and Pitts' children.
