Mortis has been updating Maybequest and working on Felid Factor, and was able to finish Fantasy Cascade (formerly known as the Wilson Project) Episode One: Spilling Over! We’re just waiting on Heike to finish up the OST, and then it’s all ready for publishing. Universal Constants writing is also still underway with Comorant, with Episode Four in the works. With a potential 26 episodes planned, there’s still a long way to go, but they’re chugging away at it and getting feedback when possible! The mystery project relating to the wiki has also been released- Travel Diary: Undertow is now available for reading, and should be updated on Mondays.
Due to therapy mandated treatment, Mortis will be working less in order to help their workaholic tendencies. This may lead to less frequent content updates over time, but hopefully lead to better quality of work and more consistent work- and just better health, which is the most important thing.

Another important thing is the beginning of a fun side venture- Mortis has started dipping into making Morbit-related Second Life avatars as a way to help promote the universe to a new audience, and encourage the community to hang out in a virtual space as TCPs! This is only available to 18+ members of the community due to the nature of SL, however, and you can find out more on our age gated Discord.
Projects of Mortis’ will resume as normal, though possibly with more breaks and more time spent on fun projects like Petz, Second Life, and 4dopt. Commissions may also be slower. Thank you for understanding!

Comorant wrapped up the Winter Crankshaft Special with several updates, as well as a one shot, a Masa con Papas update, a Dopple Effect update, contributing to Maybequest, and several small Worldbuilding additions. He plans to continue updating ongoing projects as well as push out significantly more One Shots in April.

Knux, meanwhile, has been busy with some concept work in addition to working on Arcade Session (look at Echo she’s so precious). Some commission work’s rounded out his schedule for the past month or so; he’s been hard at work gettin’ them pixels in just the right order!
Pear and Lucy have been spending time working together on various concepts in the background (they’re the type who like to pull the strings. Pretty much Morbit lore experts. We let them because their ideas are usually gold anyway.) Pear’s also been helping out with Maybequest sketches.

Ari’s been diligently expanding the Prismic Sanctum story, as well as writing characters and story assistance in Maybequest. This month PS has had a couple of exciting action sequences, as well as a couple new faces! They’ll continue to work on PS and their other projects in the future.
As for me, I’ve been doing this newsletter. You’re welcome!
While we’ve got some things in store for you for April, feel free to comment and discuss March’s updates in the thread if you like. We’re working hard to deliver that fresh new Morbit content to your very door, so watch this space over the next month or so if you want to see what we got cookin’!
