Can't change the character before spawning

Hello,

I have 3 characters in the main menu, each to its own private shard. I want to die on one of the servers and respawn with a new character (especially since 2 look the same so I've blocked myself), but I can't. It spawns me with the same character over and over and I don't want that. Back in the day when you died and pressed Exit, you could reshape your default character. Now I can't since all 3 characters can only be renamed.

Is there a fix? Is this something saved in a config file which I may have accidentally saved as read-only or something?

When I keep browsing through characters I will get a generic one I can customize -->

Ok, thanks, now I can see this base character to customize. I think I needed to join several servers until the 3 players in the menu cycled and made this one appear. I had only 3 characters for which I could only change the name.

 

Thanks again.
