As you round the corner between the crates, you see a small swarm of cat-like monstrosities. They look a little beaten up already, probably from the previous attempts to clear them out but even so, you feel as if they're grinning at you, scheming.
Hamish sprints towards Ida with the trap, trying not to panic at the sight of the feline monsters. He whispers under his breath, "Pleasedon'thurtus, Pleasedon'thurtus." His fear roils up in his chest and pours out from him in a force of psychic energy at the cat on Ida's shoulder.
The Cat's attention instantly turns on you, and it stares at you and seems to grin all the wider. The grin turns to a grimace momentarily as if it's experiencing some kind of pain and then its eyes narrow as it stares at you.
Another cat comes leaping down from atop the boxes, aiming for Hamish, with gleeful malice as its fangs fly towards your neck but it, like a real cat, misjudged its jump slightly and instead clatters into the cage that you're carrying, bouncing off and landing on its feet nearby, hissing in your direction.
Next up is Darwin.
The current scene is that Toryn remains upstairs, with a cat on his shoulders. Ida has left your line of sight between some crates and you last heard her call for Hamish to bring the trap and Hamish is almost out of sight, just about rounding the same corner as Ida. You just witnessed the cat's attempted attack.
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Darwin shakes his head. “This wasn’t the plan”, he mutters quietly under his breath whilst shaking his head.
Seeing the cat come into view attacking Hamish, he reaches for the well of power inside himself, but the strangers warning echoes in a corner of his mind. He pulls his thoughts back from the well, takes a step forward flipping the dagger in his hand and launches it at the cat by Hamish.
Darwin's knife buries itself in the Cat's hindquarters, sparking an alien shriek to escape from its throat. It hisses, ears pinned back and tail swishing.
The cat atop Toryn's shoulders again tries to bite him. This time it finds flesh and buries its little teeth into his neck for 6 points of damage, half piercing and half force.
The cat yowls in pain as your sword finds its mark and loses its place on your shoulders, dropped onto the wood of the balcony. The cat has a serious wound across its abdomen and looks in pain.
Ida attempts to grab the cat from her back and restrain it. While doing so she moves closer to Hamish to try to get the cat into the trap he's carrying.
Since the cat was restrained, I'm not going to require any checks for getting it in the trap (though my experience of putting cats into things they don't want to be in tells me I should haha)
The cat yowls angrily and snaps at Hamish as it is sealed in the trap.
You now have one kitty up on Toryn and one kitty down by Hamish and Ida with Darwin not far away.
(for some reason I can't get it to unbold)
The cat down with the three of you is going to attempt to bite Hamish. It gets his ankle and does some good damage, please take 3 piercing and 2 force damage.
Darwin watches Ida and Hamish manage to bundle one of the beasts into the cage. At least that part of the plan had gone smoothly.
He draws another dagger, but decides against throwing it. Instead he makes a few gestures with the hand holding his crystal and right behind the cat closest to him a loud cracking sound is heard (Minor Illusion).
(OOC: Hoping this could count as the help action for Ida's next attack)
Ida and Hamish (sorry little buddy) take 1 force damage from the energy from the cats. Toryn survives the hit without a scratch. Darwin is, at this time unknown.

What do you do.
Ida moves closer to the swarm, undeterred by the scheming eyes. She confidently slashes her axe through the swarm.
[rolling in the app] [Having difficulty getting the rolls sent to everyone- but they are going to the DM]
To Hit: 16 (DM please verify)
A 16 hits, please roll damage.
8+6 Damage is a lethal blow to the swarm.
The Ax carves through their small bodies with ease, destroying the mass in one fell swoop.
A monster dives from atop a box at you, landing on your shoulder and attempting to bite you. It finds purchase on your neck and deals 5 damage.
Next in the order is Hamish
Ida yells loudly "HAMISH BRING THE TRAP!!"
Hamish sprints towards Ida with the trap, trying not to panic at the sight of the feline monsters. He whispers under his breath, "Pleasedon'thurtus, Pleasedon'thurtus." His fear roils up in his chest and pours out from him in a force of psychic energy at the cat on Ida's shoulder.

Attack: 14 Damage: 4 (piercing)
Darwin's knife buries itself in the Cat's hindquarters, sparking an alien shriek to escape from its throat. It hisses, ears pinned back and tail swishing.
The cat atop Toryn's shoulders again tries to bite him. This time it finds flesh and buries its little teeth into his neck for 6 points of damage, half piercing and half force.
It is now Toryn's move.
Toryn hollers at the pain and hacks over his shoulder again, attempting to dislodge the feisty kitty from his back.
Attack: 14, damage 6.
The cat yowls in pain as your sword finds its mark and loses its place on your shoulders, dropped onto the wood of the balcony. The cat has a serious wound across its abdomen and looks in pain.
Ida is up next.
Ida attempts to grab the cat from her back and restrain it. While doing so she moves closer to Hamish to try to get the cat into the trap he's carrying.
[Roll in App] Strength: 24 (Nat 20 +4)
Ida successfully grabs the cat by the scruff of its neck and Grapples it, holding it in a manner that prevents its teeth from reaching her.
Next in the initiative is that cat, so it's going to attempt to escape the grapple, please make another check to see if it manages to escape.
Ida rolls an 8, the Cat rolls a 7.
It tries to squirm out of your grip, jerking and twisting and you feel your grip loosening but you manage to keep a firm grip on the monster.
Next up, Hamish, with his trap.
Hamish holds out the trap and closes it once the cat is shoved inside. Did I hurt the cat with my whisper? It seemed to recoil when I said that...
Since the cat was restrained, I'm not going to require any checks for getting it in the trap (though my experience of putting cats into things they don't want to be in tells me I should haha)

The cat's head spins on Darwin and it begins to emanate energy in response to the casting.
I need all 4 of you to make a Constitution Saving Throw
Constitution: 22
Constitution: 7
Ida and Hamish (sorry little buddy) take 1 force damage from the energy from the cats. Toryn survives the hit without a scratch. Darwin is, at this time unknown.
The cat with Toryn tries to bite him but fails.
Now it is Toryn's turn
Toryn reaches back to grab the injured kitty and choke the remaining life out of it.
Strength Check: (roll 2 + 3) 5
(OOC) Well that didn't go as planned
