Capturing Note Contents by Header

Help

What I’m trying to do

I am working on character development for a novel. I have a template for character descriptions that include multiple sections, delineated by Heading 2.

## Nothing is more important than: (List 3)
## Character's Main Goal:
## Biggest Secret:
## How Do They See the World?
## Flaws:
## What They Need to Learn:
## Physical Characteristics/Character Tag:
## Fears:
## Background and Defining Moment:
## Additional Information:

I would love to create a report that show the content of one of the headings (let’s say Character’s Main Goal) for every character in one table view. For example:

Character Character’s Main Goal Goal
Character 1 Character 1’s Main Goal
Character 2 Character 2’s Main Goal
etc.

Since the goals are written in paragraph form, I don’t want to use frontmatter.

Things I have tried

I’ve tried doing a query, but get no results. Since the information isn’t in the frontmatter, dataview doesn’t seem to be appropriate either.

Can someone point me in the right direction?

Thanks

I’m not sure if there is a way to do this, unfortunately. I believe there are some other conversations here about trying to search by heading or list the contents of a heading used in multiple notes, so a search should at least show you what has been discussed so far.
