He didn't ask if he was an independent character, but if he was a character.

Aren't all ICs also Characters? I can't think of any who aren't...

Mhmm, I was just curious about that question though... OT, but still.
I'm not sure about the RAW, but RAI he's clearly intended to be a Character.

All independent characters are characters, but not all characters are independent characters. Examples of characters who are not independent characters include space marine sergeants and Mephiston.
And as I've already stated, Codex Grey Knights clearly answers Mordrak's status as a character.

On page 82 of the GK book, in Mordrak's box, under Unit Type, it says whether Mordrak is or is not a character. Glad to help Edit: and thanks, Ghaz, for reminding me that my book was forward-thinking!

That he could challenge enemy characters for one, which you can't do if you're not a character.

All unique units are characters. He is a named unit correct? Therefore should be a character.

As has been stated, his entry in the codex clearly states his status as to whether or not he is a character.
