... I tried to create and burn a new character named "FreedomLight". When it said that request failed, I deleted it too...
After "Request Failed," the actual character was created? It just wasn't burning?
Yes, and so I deleted it.
Do I need to re-create the character and leave it there?
Now the character name has been occupied by someone else.
I got a new character "FreedomBreak".
After "Request Failed," the character is created, just not burning.
