Every year new zombies come from the Underground to join us. Here is where you can make requests or suggestions for things you would like to see in Louis L'Amour and SKITTERS shops. It wouldn't hurt to wish for new zombie traits or themes either.

Survival has seen many themes mostly related to zombies and love. The color scheme depends on the shop it releases in, Skitters usually had black and muted colors while Louis L'Amour has various pinks, red, white and a turquoise. Not everything that is in one shop is in the other so if you really like an item but you want it in the other shops colors make it a suggestion.

Items released during the holiday may include

-Books -Clothes -Backgrounds -Foregrounds -Food -Plushies -Beanbags -Stickers -Minions

And sometimes Alchemy items though they aren't only released during Survival. For further reference and inspiration here is the 2023 Survival thread.

I think last year Amber said that the next Survival skins would follow a different theme rather than Subeta lands as the last few years were. I don't know if this new theme has been decided or not, but here's some ideas:

Different types of rocks and stones

Weather and the sky/space

There was one year where a few of the skins were based on battle challengers, maybe we could have more of those

Arts and crafts, I'd love to see a zombie skin based on yarn/wool

I know we already had some plant-inspired skins, but how about some more? Same with ocean-inspired skins

I would love some crystal or minion themed skins!

We just got these logs for Fireside, and they immediately reminded me of the mushroom things we can make at The Alchove.

There's some color overlap, but I would love a version of the logs in some of the other colors. The bright purple is the one I want the most.

Skins based on color palettes or film styles! Imagine a film noir zombie skin with shadowy growths.

I also love Sneaky's suggestion, a crochet zombie skin and spooky craft items in general would make my entire month.

I love 's craft skin idea! Crochet/knit/sewn/etc. skins would be cool.

I'd also love to see some dinosaur based skins!

more wearables based on sweetydead color scheme like the we need the non csc version of it :)

Crafty skins would be a great idea! Crochet and embroidery skins! Maybe those lil robots from a few years ago are crafty.

Here are a few some of my most desired requests from last year.

Please create an item for bulk currency maybe it could look like the or and give random candy hearts or maybe just automatically be added to your Parlor account. As long as we can send or trade it easier than individual hearts.

I will always enjoy more of the cute and funny minions. Whoever comes up with those ideas thank you you have made me smile many times over the years.

was really cute but it would be great to get a shorter pile of blankets, or pillows for the zombie den that would look good with

Please more interior backgrounds and foregrounds especially ones with windows, countertops, candy shops, soda shops, coffee shops, ice cream/gelato shops and more. Is there a begging pleading emoji? Because it needs to go right here.

More simple figures I would love to see more for the Sweatheart color. Like the hearts around the anyu's eyes, maybe the bumbus or archan's mane, the chai or bovyne's collar, the Darkonite's NoThx candy heart, the sheeta's horns, yeharra's tail, the waradors staff.

As for the graveyard color the Jollin's ears separate like the sheeta horns, Kora's tail, the Harvestor's scythe, the Escalade's chains, and I have no idea how it could be done but a pose like the Kumos would be something.

Please recolor these for the Zombie den. Maybe the last one could have a black jacket over all the colors.

New versions of these Skitter's items for the Parlor More books on morticians, educational texts for working with zombies, preparing parts/bodies, dissection, embalming, taxidermy, cremation and books about graves or graveyards maintenance, design, etc.

I could go on but will leave my most desired ideas here for now hoping that you are looking through the old as well as new suggestions since there have been so many wonderful ones in the last couple years not just from me and I can't add them all here.

I love the idea of some craft zombie skins and I'd love to see some weather skins and items. Cloud skin, rain skin, after the tornado skin (though that might be too graphic).

But I'm loving 's idea of embroidery skin, that would be really something to see!

These might be hard to do but what about infections inspired by famous body horror media like Ito Junji, Cronenberg, Steven King or The Thing?

In both the Parlor and Skitters' shop I'd love to see more fun wigs, animal parts (similar to the simple figures but not pet-based) and things like mermaid tails, fairy wings, horns, ears, centaur/satyr bodies, maybe some cute mage sets like the Celestial Witch line or sets similar to the fairies that were sold last Neugarten?

I also love anything candy themed so more of those too would be great!

Yes to these! I love the simple figures!

Agreed! Sweetie-dead items are a really nice combination of both sides of survival and we could use more items other than food and plushies and, as Krelian said, CS items.

Not item specific, but I love plots and I feel like it's been a while since we've had one! Bringing one into the next holiday could be really fun.

New items could be included along the plot, as prizes, or simply be all released at the end of the plot (like is one of them went missing and the shop was closed and we had to help find them via quests and/or exploring around the site).

Item ideas:

is very cute. I think it would be nice to build on it by having some of these stuffed animals solo in different positions! Like some background, ground, foreground, held.

and could be expanded to include various color combinations (thinking primarily the different pride flag colors).

is one I really like and I would love to see more versions!

I think it would be cool to have the non-torn up and torn-up versions of items like this (so non-torn up in Louis' and torn up in Skitters').

This hair in every color possible including solids xD

More of these!

A "dressy" boot based on this

And in general simple necklaces, earrings, and bracelets!

I have been trying to think of ideas for different types of items and so far I've thought of these.

Food -individual trifles in a wine or martini glass there could be matching ones in both shops like they were made for a food competition between the vendors from Half Baked and the bake Shop. Chocolate Strawberry, Lemon Blueberry, Pistachio Fig, Peach Cookie, Raspberry Mint and whatever the lady from Half Baked can think of since I'm not familiar with Zombie Cuisine. -individual heart shaped Chocolate Panna Cotta with various toppings strawberry, fig, peach, nuts, mandarins, black cherry, raspberry caramel -crepes all the crepes so many crepes sweet crepes (strawberry mandarin, raspberry fig, black cherry peach, lemon blueberry, mint chocolate Oreo, lemon curd, banana rum, coffee mascarpone, and various ice creams) and savory (smoked salmon and brie, crab with lemon aioli sauce, turkey pesto, spinach and mushroom, Gorgonzola with figs, ham and walnuts)

Plushies -for Zombie Den more on the mushroom theme -a series that looks like the candy hearts -Bonbons -Cephaluvpod -Amourouse -Jellysquish -Sweetie Star (basically go back and make plushies of all those adorable minions)

Beanbags -Roses (I know flowers are usually for Vesnali but rose beanbags in a few colors would be pretty and might even smell good) -Smoreluvin (as much as I would like to see the adorable minions as plushies I think this one would make a really cool beanbag)

Books If we're continuing the fanfic theme, and I hope we are, could we get any of these -Crossovers (if you play on the pun it might work in the Zombie Den) -Not Beta Read -Slow Burn -Misunderstandings -Family -Slice of Life -Humor -Everyone Lives or Everyone is Alive -Cuddling and Snuggling -Historical -Angst -Ships just in general -We die like ___ (could fit in the Zombie Den very well)

As for other book ideas -a Lingerie Catalog -how to arrange romantic bouquets -how to assemble your chocolate fountain like an owners manual -How to write romance -How to write romantic poetry -Peaceful conflict resolution

the entire series of cutout hearts was really cool and it would be fun to see what Zombies would hang up to decorate, especially over the backgrounds we got in the past.

My only idea is inspired by the flash game "curse village" and Doom games

that fugly bad boi looks worthy for a reference for a potential idea ;3 Demon possessed zombies are the new black

I am absolutely obsessed with the scaredy cat figurines from Morostide and would love to see some love versions (puppy love figurines?) in Louis’ shop!

The Sweetheart pets are definitely my favorite to look at because they have the widest variety of poses and facial expressions. I think it would be cool to incorporate those poses into wearables as well. Sweetheart Rreign - love the feet and the arms behind the back Sweetheart Sheeta - maybe an item that makes the avatar look like it is fidgeting with the hair would work? Sweetheart Velosotor - an item that makes the HA hug a box of chocolates or something similar Sweetheart Wyllop - I think that pose for the arms would be fun Sweetheart Endeavor/Donadak - that giggling look with the hands at the mouth is adorable

A hat inspired by ...Or even a matching outfit set similar to the Liddle Lamzy Divey and Dozy Doats sets from Vesnali 2017.

I agree with the suggestion for more simple figures for the Sweetheart color. These could also be good: The Irion and Magnus have super cool wings The Ontra’s candy heart with the smiley is pretty cute The Popoko’s tail is absolutely gorgeous The Lain’s subtle heart on the forehead is lovely (there is already a Lain figure, but this could be a cute tattoo sheet as well!)

I also think the idea for craft skins is great and I would especially like to see the embroidery one. A scrapbook one could be cool.

Oh yes! I would love to see these items, too! I always love cozy shop items.

while Id love to see a plot, hell even a mini plot...I really dont see one ever happening again until we get more staff sadly.

as for skins horror based could be an interesting idea but probably not really doable this close to the holiday..Subeta pet themed could be interesting..kinda like the Pylot themed one I believe we have. more sweetydead things would be nice as well

more backgrounds of any kind, Im a BGfiend lol

I agree with Craft ideas for skins. Possible Skins Inspiration:
