Problem description: Above is the coding for logging into my game and it appears to have no errors but obviously there are some because when you log in and after you have chosen your gender a runtime pops up saying:

runtime error: Cannot read null.name
proc name: Login (/mob/White_Male/Login)
usr: the buster (/mob/White_Male)
src: the buster (/mob/White_Male)
call stack:
the buster (/mob/White_Male): Login()
the creating character2 (/mob/creating_character2): Login()

Or if you choose female:

runtime error: Cannot read null.name
proc name: Login (/mob/White_Female/Login)
usr: the buster (/mob/White_Female)
src: the buster (/mob/White_Female)
call stack:
the buster (/mob/White_Female): Login()
the creating character2 (/mob/creating_character2): Login()

What is wrong with this code?

1. You want to put ..() below everything else

2. Login is only when you join the server, and it wouldn't work after create a character...

Login() is called when you connect to a mob, not just the server. So if you create a new mob and transfer your client's control to that mob, Login() is called again.

So your saying the code should look like this? I've never seen it like this before. But I still get the runtime errors, regardless.
