What does it actually do?

I was playing the other day when it said "One of your creatures is being
scavenged!" which was my prize level 10 warlock. It had the scavenge icon
over it's head.

When it is being scavenged what eventually happens and where does it go if
the enemy is successful? Also when I am scavenging for creatures how do I
know if I am successful and where does it come through, the portal?

Thanks

It enables you to steal the enemy keeper's minions.

Shit happens.

Erm, surprising though it may seem, he becomes part of the enemy army.
To halt the scavenge, drop him in the temple for a while, and possibly
put him in your own scavenge room straight afterwards.

The creatures that you manage to scavenge from your enemy will appear in
the scavenge room and scavenge with the others. IMO, however, it's best
to train them up, the higher their level, the less open they are to
scavenging by the enemy.

HTH.

If your creature is being scavenged it will eventually abandon your dungeon
and join the enemy. You can stop this by putting the creature that is being
scavenged in the temple.
As for scavenging creatures yourself, it's best to put about three or four
of the same creature in your scavenger room at once, ie. four dragons and
four warlocks. This aids the efficiency of your scavenging and after a
while you'll notice the amount of dragons and warlocks you have increases.
You can tell the scavenger room works because you'll get messages informing
you of 'new creature in dungeon' followed by the creature type.

Except that you won't see such a message - a creature will only scavenge
creatures of the same type as itself.

Successful scavenging consumes gold, so if a creature in the scavenger room
is not costing you anything (no numbers appearing above it) there are no
creatures of the same type available. When you see this, find something else
for the creature to do.
