Dead HC character hasn't appeared on the normal realm

I ran into the Drak Portal in Blasted Lands with the ghost of my level 14 dead character named Kuldhrah. As soon as I entered the gate, I disconnected from the game, and when I tried to log back in, I realised that my character disappeared from the HC realm completely, and hasn't appeared on the normal realm since. It happened about 6 hours ago. On the OctoWoW site I still can see the character, the site says he's on both realms but deceased. What should I do?

We have had some issues with the HC portal this last patch, should be fixed now after this next restart!

I could now log in to my character, thanks for the quick reply! :)

Oh, one more thing! My character died at Jarod's Landing in Elwynn Forest. I dared to run very close to that building because I saw no one there, but then 2 or 3 Defias mobs appeared out of nowhere. I think some bug was the reason they didn't appear before me. I also ran into almost the same bug at Brackwell Pumpkin Patch – I could see the Defiases from outside the building (in which the mob named 'The Collector' was), they were in my line of sight but I couldn't shoot spells on them. And when my imp attacked them, they came out running through the walls, not the door. The houses both at that pumpkin farm and Jared's Landing seem to have their hitboxes wrong or something, they should be checked! :)

That's the human rogue pickpocketing quest, if you aggro the goblin he immediatly spawns 3 very strong defiases that basicly instakill every rogue that fails to be sneaky.. and propably also every other class that gets caught unaware.
It's perfectly normal.
