  Everybody can access and control your cage in PVE. So you need to closed door always

  This has happened to me as well. I just captured a 100% warrior and it disappeared after a few minutes

  Are you leaving your doors open? I recently learned if doors are left open other players can interact with your prisoners even on pve servers - I hope this is a bug because it seems like a wild breach or pve limitations

  This just happened to me as well in Solo mode. I was in the process of feeding a fish to my prisoner and then as soon as it switched to daytime the guy just disappeared. I only had time to extract 2 vials before it happened.

  I've had this happen a couple of times as well. Put prisoner in, feed him/her, drain blood. And when you come back later they're just gone.
  
  I play on a private server I run myself so it wasn't somebody else doing anything with them.

  no doors left open and it started to happen right after the latest patch.

  Just had this happen to me with a 100% Worker Bell Ringer. Brought back to base, put in cage and attempted to feed. Noticed the model was not showing the cage and that their health wasn't rising. Relogged and it was gone.

  I got an 100% brute, imprisoned him, locked the prison room door, made some stuff for 3 minutes. When I got back it was gone.
  >everything in a PvE server, with enemy loot disabled, and all doors closed.

  BRANCH: None
  REPORT:
  When did the issue start? 6-15-22
  Were you able to play the game before? actively playing at the time
  What happened?
  Sent thralls on mission. While assigning them heard an attacking noise, but no buttons were held down and I was alone. When I closed the mission map the throne was dead. Repaired it, everything seemed fine. Not sure if that is related at all because prisoners don't interact with the throne. Left my castle, when I came back all prisoners at that castle had disappeared. There weren't hearts or anything like they'd died. These were not new prisoners, I'd had them for awhile. I play on a private PVE server. All doors were closed. I was the only one online when I left my castle. By the time I got back to my base and found the issue a friend had logged on and came over and verified that it wasn't just a loading problem, they were missing for them as well.
  Have you modified your game files or installed any mods? no

  Hi! Is there a fix for this already?
  This has happened to me twice as of writing.
  I play solo so there couldn't be anyone stealing my purebloods.
  I even have the 100% Rouge Blood Bottle to prove that I was able to imprison one, but after relaunching, he's gone.
  It's so upsetting as I have a hard time finding these only for them to disappear. I am not a happy vampire.

  I catch a 100% barbarian, put him to prison, feed mouse twice, not even draw blood.
  Then i left the castle, when i came back, it disappeared.
  
  This is a really bad bug.
  
  I have see more critical bug from video.
  You can see this https://www.bilibili.com/video/BV1zS4y1q7Mx
  The vanished prisoner even show up in another place, and can not be choose.

  I have also encountered this bug as well as the werewolf changing & escaping bug. I've put three prisoners in cells and each time I leave my castle area to find another human, when I return my cells are empty. I made sure to feed the prisoners and didn't interact with them to increase their misery in any way.

  Happened to me as well on a dedicated server a friend bought. Had a 97 rouge that I put in the prison, didn't even have the chance to drain or feed and came back to base and it was gone. No one on the server besides myself and my clanmates. Couple hours later got a 100 brute and the same thing happened. No doors left open. Please look into this.

  Put a worker to prison at first he vanished but i could feed him. Then i moved the prison and he was visible again.
  Then i could drain blood without taking any dmg. so i could make like 15 bottles of blood, after that he vanished again.
  Very bad bug..

  Had this happen as well this very disappointing seeing how much time invested into finding the 100% prisoners only to have them disappear hopefully this gets fixed soon this doesnt make the game fun at all having to find prisoners all the time unless you up the rate of 100% spawns so you dont feel like your waisting your time when you could be doing something else in the game

  Playing solo on a Private Dedicated PvE Server running on my own computer using the dedicated server software available on Steam. No one else can log into the server.
  
  After finding a 100% warrior on the roads of Dunley Farms, I promptly escorted him back to my castle, put him into a cage and queued four rats to get his health up.
  
  I then left the castle to go farm some more glass an cotton. During my outing I died once, and went up to pick up my dropped inventory.
  
  I then went back to the castle, with around 20 minutes having past since I imprisoned the warrior.
  
  When I get back, the warrior I gone, with no trace of him.
  
  I have a 100% worker in the cage next door which has stayed out for a few days, and 100% Rogue in another castle that has also been there for days.
  
  Now I found this one by pure luck, but having spent significant time looking for a 100% scholar I know that I would be furious if I found one only to have it disappear/ bug out.

  This happened to me 2 of the 3 times I used the prison cell. First one was a militia longbow, luckily he didn't vanish and I actually managed to get his blood. 2nd was a torchthrower, he disappeared like 2 minutes after I put him in. 3rd was a militia grunt and I managed to feed him one rat before he vanished too.
  
  Real vibe killer I'm not using prisons now.

  I've seen a couple people in server talking about how when people leave their doors open just go in and kill their servant so make sure you have your doors closed and you're building a secure or this may happen to you

  I capture few prisoners today, while I checked on them, I realized 2 of my prisoners gone missing. The thing is, both not jailed in the same castle. Both of them is warrior blood, 100% from octavian base and the other is 92% I kidnapped from the Dunley road. The other 5 newly-capture-today-prisoners (another 100% warrior, a 90% and 92% brute, a 93% and 95% scholars) I put in the same castles didnt vanished.
  
  Both castles' jail room has servant lock door (so there is no servant accidentally open the door). Nothing indicate anyone attack me or burglarize me as it's PVE official server (CN 6010). No clanmate online at the time it's gone, well, I could even say nobody online except me at that time in the whole server.

  100% Brute disapeared from prision, last thing i did was feeding rat to him.

  Just got started with the prison System. Have 3 cages set up. My first worker (21%) and a Scholar (89%) have been around for a while now and I've tapped for blood a few times with no issues. (PVE - solo server)
  
  Then I recently brought back a 98 warrior blood (one of those with the shield and sword types- militia) put him in his cell -- feed him a few rats -- Go to put stuff away and when I return he vanished.
  
  That was a really tough one to get too... I had to fight off 3 waves of patrolling militia that joined in on my fights in progress to nab him.
  
  The cages themselves are spread apart. Just in my common area (no jail floors yet).
  
  One's in a corner next to a blood themed vial shelf and a torch. The scholar cage has only one wall next to it and is beside a standing brazier.
  The third cage is off in a corner, surrounded by 3 walls, and nothing else (not even a torch) nearby. All cages are spaced close to the walls

  Another interesting thing I just encountered. I got a level 87% worker blood bell ringer. I got him into his cage (took the place of my other worker blood) and... everytime I put him in he teleports in then... dissapears? But he's still in the cage UI. I've tapped him a few times and... also his health doesn't decrease? Though his misery still goes up. So far he's still "There" but I'll keep watch even though he's... invisible.
  
  ---
  
  Welp I log off (solo server so whole thing turns off) -- I log back on a little while later and he's gone! Even in the IU... Though oddly the food I was feeding him-- a rat, is paused at 268 seconds. I had drain blood queued up next, which is still marked as such.
  
  That's... so very sad :< I do hope this seemingly longstanding bug can be addressed... cus it's already hard enough getting a good prisoner. Loosing them randomly sucks.
  
  I have a theory that maybe it has to do with the NPC type? Cus non-hostile enemies like my cleric are still there.

  Okay another update to this weird thing... I went to a town to get another prisoner and... well it was the same town the bellringer was from... and guess who was there? The 87% bellringer... and a second lower grade one. Two bellringers! When I tried to attack them both only the lower grade blood bellringer was interactable. The other acted as if I wasn't even there nor could I hit them.
  
  After finding an "okay" 40% worker blood back to base -- I tried putting him into the bellringer's old cage... and... well he was back! sorta... the UI said he was back. So I made another cage and put the new captive in there. Back to the phantom bellringer-- he still had the full HP glitch... so... I just bled him for like 8 bottles. After the final one his UI was gone, so I assumed I bled him dry somehow. I may go back to that village to check if he's still there.
