Tuuli cries out, “I got one, heading back up!” She will gracefully lope back the way she came as far as she can, holding the caterpillar carefully. “You’re so cute!” she will declare to it.

ey/em/eirs, or they/them works, too (just not he). Role-playing since that keep on those borderlands. I love it so.
Tuuli nimbly steps her way through the room past Calista and Knicknack and into room one. “There’s one!” she says helpfully as a caterpillar squirts through the door. “Don’t know how to climb the ladder with more than one, so, one of you get that one! Bye!”
She races for the ladder.

With a Dash, Tuuli is just able to race back to the ladder and climb to the top where Madam Kulp is waiting. The old gnome holds out her hands to accept it. "Got one? Three to go!" She glances at her fancy pocket watch. "Your time is nearly half up!"
Rycroft, Walt, Calista, and Knicknack may act next.
As the creature tries to wriggle away, Rycroft dives down to scoop it up again. He tries to wrap it up like a wriggling burrito in his cloak to prevent further escapes.
Rycroft chases the caterpillar into Room 2, and just barely manages to grab it again. He wraps it gently in his cloak. (He still has 10 feet of movement left if he wants it.)
With Rycroft's light rapidly retreating, Walt can barely see anything but the near end of the room. More junk, furniture, and supplies. He thinks he can make out another door.

After the commotion of the two caterpillars, Calista moves through into the third room and tries the door that hasn't been opened yet. She will look for caterpillars as she steps through into the new room.
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
One caterpillar looks at Walt warily, while the other – held captive by Rycroft and wrapped in his cloak – tries to bite him. (At disadvantage, due to being restrained.) Bite Attack vs Rycroft: 6 Hit: 1 piercing damage.
Rycroft is reminded of many near-bites from rats and stray cats, and dashes to the ladder to deposit his caterpillar. With any remaining movement, he speeds back the way he came toward the door to H5.

Walt spots the caterpillar that was right under his nose the entire time. He takes a slow cautious step towards the caterpillar and says ”Hellooo there little friend. Come here, I won’t hurt you.”
Animal handing check: 10
if Walt succeeds in capturing the caterpillar, he will use his remaining movement to move towards the ladder.

Tuuli smiles at Madam Kulp, “So you’re saying I have time to get another one!”She slides down the ladder, narrowly avoiding Rycroft at the bottom, and races through H1 and H2 to H4, where she pauses to take in the situation (and maybe make a Perception check if she can get there with an Action still, I don’t think she can).

Carefully keeping his clutching hands away from biting mandibles, Rycroft manages to Dash back to the ladder, and up to Madam Kulp's waiting chair, where she happily takes her caterpillar back. He ends his turn there.
Walt tries to coax the caterpillar in Room 5 into coming with him, but instead, it backs away slightly and hisses at him.
Tuuli races back down the ladder and Dashes to room 4. (Any perception check will need to wait.)
Knicknack races toward the door in Room 5. (Ditto)
Calista may act next. (And Harrow, too, if he makes it back to rejoin the party in time.)

Rycroft successfully nabs the second caterpillar. (He still has 20 feet of movement left.)
Tuuli leaves room three with a squirming caterpillar in her hand, and makes it as far as the doorway.
Walt is at the doorway to Room 5.
Calista and Knicknack may act next.
Knicknack grumbles in Maynah about darn worms and will dash as far as she can towards H4.
Knicknack races into room #2.
Meanwhile, the caterpillars try to squirm out of the grip of their captors.
Caterpillar #1 Strength check: 5 vs Tuuli.
Caterpillar #2 Dex check: 7 vs Rycroft.
Tuuli and Rycroft: make a contesting strength check to hang on to your captives!
Calista may still act.

Tuuli manages to keep hold of her captive caterpillar.

...but fails. The caterpillar slips out of his arms and through the door to Room #2.

Calista strides through room 3 and opens the door to room 5, lighting it up in the process.
Indeed, she spots a caterpillar - right near Walt, in fact!
Knicknack is up next.
One caterpillar looks at Walt warily, while the other – held captive by Rycroft and wrapped in his cloak – tries to bite him. (At disadvantage, due to being restrained.)

Knicknack will attempt to move as fast as she can to the nearest unexplored room, assisting anyone along the way if they need it.
