I have searched the Bug Support forums and I was unable to find an entry for this error.
The default Shade species does not appear to be selectable in character creation. The only option is the sub-species of Stygian Shade, which is quite different than the standard option. This seems to be an ongoing issue from as early as September 3rd, 2024? I was wondering if anyone had any additional information, or if the D&D Beyond team would be willing to verify this issue.
I am loathe to reply to my own thread, but this seems like a reasonable request for a review?
I did try to provide documentation. No one has (as of yet) called out a redundant support request, nor suggested I have erred in submission of the support request itself?

Thank you.
Reporting a bug in the Release Issues & Support thread for the book will make it more likely that someone who can do something about it will see it.
Base Species. Some of the new subspecies included in this title have base species from other Kobold Press books. The following species have been added to D&D Beyond: Erina (Tome of Heroes), Shade (Tome of Heroes), Satarre (Tome of Heroes), and Ravenfolk (Midgard Heroes Handbook).
So apparently, there is a content issue with Tome of Heroes.

The explanation is unsatisfying, but at least there is an answer.
