I think the avatar is Iron Maiden's Eddie?

You can also be smitten with love... | It's usually used as a bit more than "to hit". It often connotates killing. When you "smite" someone, it's like..........putting out a flame with your fingers. Just....pinch, and then gone.
And while we're talking about grammer, shouldn't Ludacris have said "you shall be smitten"?

Eddie is their mascot (I always considered him a zombie) and has graced virtually every album cover and t-shirt that Iron Maiden has.
The lead singer was/is a fencer (epee I believe) and founded Duelist.
