Dataview: Sum/total values from multiple notes.

I have a vault for a D&D campaign and thought it would be fun to keep a running list of all the creatures defeated across the entire campaign.
I have a folder called “Session Notes” with all of my notes titled “Session 1, Session 2, Session 3” etc…

Is there a way I can display values in the session notes so I can have main note with a dataview query table that totals the amounts? Maybe with one column “Creature” and another column “Qty”.

e.g. If session 1 had 3x goblins and 1x ogre listed somewhere and session 2 had 2x goblins listed, I’d like the dataview table to have a row for Goblins with a value of 5 and row for Ogre with a value of 1.

Have tried a lot of things but can’t get this to work.

Thanks in advance!
