I was reincarnating my toon today to swap up the build. I was going through the process just fine, had leveled back up to 40, reclaimed my legendary XP and such, and relogged to make sure the HP was fixed and the toon I made was gone, I had already transferred my bags to this toon and so all of my loot is now gone?
The character, and the items have all disappeared. What do I do? How do I get all of this back? Can someone please help?

We would need your player and character name to even start.

Just a suggestion--
If you made the names too similar it is possible that the toon is there but "hidden" from your view when you look through your vault prior to login...
I can't say with too much certainty what is going on with this but I know for a fact this happens because it's happened to me many times; in fact just last night I was going through and deleting a couple old toons so I could make use a new one with a similar name (because the first one I made was hidden after creation due to this problem), and discovered some old toons I had totally forgotten about! They are in the server vault and I believe in your vault as well if you were to scroll through the .bics but it's just not visible and available to choose on login due to this "hidden" thing as I call it.
Well to be honest using passive wording like "it happened to me" is misleading because it's all stuff I did knowingly (after the first time hehe).
I believe this happens when you only differentiate between the multiple names by using spaces.
Anyway just figured I'd mention it because although I have never reinced I have had similar moments of "wtf my toon is gone!" in the past and this was why.

My account name is: Preparedx The name of the toon prior to its deletion for reincarnation: xPrepared
I think I did exactly what Chirality said and duplicated a name.
The name of what the new toon with the gear was "Prepared", with a subrace of Half-Elf.
The existing toon also named "Prepared" is a Half-Orc.
I intended to place an "x" there at the end but I guess it didn't place or I forgot. I don't recall. I was so upset it disappeared and thinking I had lost everything.
Is any other information needed?

I went and deleted the old character at the Rowan tree, and now the toon I was using last night is viewable... but it says I cannot log in with a dead creature. Would this be rectified with a simple name change to the toon? Or what now needs to be done so I can play? Thanks for the assistance with this. Both of you.

I believe the "cannot posess a dead creature" is an anti-exploit and after 24 hours you will be fine to use it. Bah...was trying to find the thread to link it but I can't and I'm too lazy to keep trying... But I believe Funky had shed some light on the dead creature thing not too long ago and I think that was what it was.

Yes. Please wait 24 hours before trying to sign in with the newer character.

When exactly did this 24 hours start? Does it reset with the login I attempted earlier? Or is this a static 24? I'd hate to get down to the wire only to reset it.

As soon as you deleted the old character.

I am still unable to log into the game with this character. As you can see based off the time stamps, the time 24 period should have elapsed yet it is not working. What must be done to resolve this issue?

A server needs to reset to clear the block as well. If it's been over 24 hours, wait for a server (any server) to reset, then try again.

So... I totally just realized my Asmo artifacts were in the persistent storage chest, not transfer of the toon I reincarnated. Is it possible to get these back? Or?

Is it possible to recover any of these items? Or are they lost? This was due to player accidental player error.

We can look at logs and see if we can recover any non-randomized items that were in the chest (randomized items will probably be lost). It may take a few days since a DM will have to trawl the logs.

On storage chests if he logs in with a new toon of the same name on the same account will it load the items?
