The name is a misspelling of the word 'mortis', which is the pronunciation used by the band. Mortiis started as the solo project of Ellefsen as a means to convey a story. This aspect was lost over time and Mortiis slowly formed into a band."@en . "Mortiis"@en . . "group_or_band" . . . . . . . . . "1993Z"^^ . . .
