The scrape occurred late 2022, and internet discussions flourished 2023. Here is an early post about it.<a href="https://dice-scroller" target="_blank">https://dice-scroller</a>.com/en/most-popular-dnd-classes-and-races/#aboutI think the data itself is still available online. The data includes some incomplete character sheets that seem unused and some redundant sheets that seem to be for a same character. It can benefit from a cleanup. But the source (DnDBeyond) and sheer quantity (over a million character sheets) make it useful for general impressions, such as most frequent classes and least frequent classes.In 2022, about 3.56% of these character sheets chose Aasimar for the species, and 2.75% chose Aarakocra. For D&D 5e 2024, Aasimar made the cut, but Aarakocra didnt. Every species of a frequency less than 3% never made the cut, including Shifter, Warforged, Changeling, Tabaxi, Goblin, Kobold, and so on. Only the highest frequencies made the cut for 2024 core. Except some species merged: half into full, subspecies into full, and seemingly elemental Genasi into Goliath.</blockquote>
