Login2_Timeout on my main character

So, this is pretty weird. On my main character—and only on my main character—when I log in and select the character and click "Play", the loading screen gets to just over 53%, then throws me back to a login prompt and a "Login2_Timeout — Press the Support button for additional help." error.

Just before I click "Play", the console says:
Using the [Live] config for the C-Store. Prefix=[ST] Currency=[StarTrekChain]
Message of the Day (Off)...

UNACCOUNTED FOR (0.57)
Syncing all dictionaries to server...done. (0.02)
Costume validation for player error: Name:Liam.Paratus_Liam Paratus, eaRegionCategories[1] is not legal on this costume.
, eaRegionCategories[0] is not legal on this costume.

Not sure what that's all about, but here's what it does when I click Play:

UNACCOUNTED FOR (47.40)

This information—from my "Clientservercomms.log"—seems most relevant:

Not sure if that's a Winsock error, but MSDN says:
Return code/value:
WSA_IO_PENDING
997


Description:
Overlapped operations will complete later.
  • The application has initiated an overlapped operation that cannot be completed immediately. A completion indication will be given later when the operation has been completed. Note that this error is returned by the operating system, so the error number may change in future releases of Windows.


I've got a ticket in... But, is there a switch for GameClient.exe (like the -console 1 option) for increasing the GameServer or LoginServer timeout?


Again, this is ONLY on my main character. Other characters on the same account log in fine.
Getting this out of the way before someone asks—Yes I have tried:
  • Checking the forums to see if the game was down for maintenance
  • Restarting my PC
  • Disabling antivirus or firewall software
  • Power cycling my modem/router
  • Selecting "Force Verify" from the launcher

This happens when launching normally or in safe mode.

A subsequent log in attempt will bring up an error message that says (complete with grammatical errors):
WARNING
An error occurred while transferring this character its destination map.

Would you like to safely log into this character's last non-mission map, or attempt to login normally?

               [ Cancel ] [ Normal Login ] [ Safe Login ]

Selecting either Normal Login or Safe Login results in the same Login2_Timeout error.

Currently, I am completely unable to log into this character—my main character—at all.
