A silly thought, but what if his ranged attacks were based on his lanterns... you know, the 3 lanterns that he carries? Obviously the AOE would have to change. And what if they had Blind on hit (them being Lanters and all)? What about if he could choose three different effects for his attack (each representing a different lantern)? Stuff like Black Penny, Grievous Wounds etc.

And he could use all three at once, but he'd be lit up and have Flare automatically applied to him

Mordikaar is a hot mess imo. First it needs to be obvious what he does, not just that he's an annoying opponent. He could fit into themes better too. If I were fixing him up here are the options I would present.
1) Generalist: Host of Shadows is a great spell, but Mordi isn't a great beastlock. Replace Host of Shadows with Curse of Shadows for damage fixing while still having jank with beasts. Replace Revive with Mockery of Life. This may require a slight rewording of either Mockery or Hollow.
2) Infantry caster: Change Hollow from Target unit to placeable AoE. If cost 2, 3" lasts the round, non-upkeep. If cost 3/4, 4-5" AoE, upkeep. Everything living or undead inside gains Undead and Soul Vessel, Mordi gets the souls.
3). Beast-centric: This takes the most work but seems mighty fun. First, Field Marshal Poltergeist and remove that effect from the feat. Again, Hollow becomes AoE spell. Feat gains an ability that enemies killed by battle group members souls automatically go to Mordi. Replace Revive with...whatever, I'm open to suggestions.

I wish elite cadre allowed him to chauffeur void spirits into any theme. Maybe that would be game breaking somehow, but it would also be thematic. He was my favorite caster in MK2 you see.
Also hello I am new.

Also hello I am new. Unfortunately, Iona (the newest warlock in Circle) has Elite Cadre Tharn, which is so broad a change like that is extremely unlikely.

Probably the best (though hardly easiest) thing for pp to do overall, is rebrand Mordikaar as coming with 2 solos. Then include 2 void spirits in a box with him instead of his blister.

Was hoping to see him in the CID. Wanted to recommend a rule change. "When targeting models with Soul vessal this model may treat them as living models." If he could target immortals with his spells he would be amazing in the exalted. Planning on playing him for a CID game anyways so I may ask my opponent if he wants to rerack and try out the rule. Then I slip it into my regular battle report.

Do you mean as a unit? If so, it would create OoA issues. It could also come like a Zaal1 solo, if that was your meaning. Too bad it didn't make the cycle, as he certainly needs work.

Yeah as solos that come with him. There should probably be some rules interaction between them, but making them part of a unit would cause issues with the solo version of them I would think. At least without all new sculpts that could be separate and distinct.

Disappointed to see that Mordikaar wasn't in the CID.
Oh well, guess I won't be investing in Skorne anytime soon.

He may come in later. There was a rumor posted on the Facebook group that Mordikaar and Zaal1 may be tested with an interesting addition for Themes other than Exalted. Not all CIDs are 1 week affairs.

As a non-skorne player, I see Mordikaar as a beast-caster. Why not run him in Imperial Warhost? Revive and hollow keeps assures that free beast charges happen. Void Wind is a timewalk-feat. Essence blast is best used on wounded beasts.
