I'm curious at to their interaction. Asmodean placed the false Car'a'carn (whatever) markings on Couladin.
I think that Couladin was furious at Rand's path to leading the Aiel and was desperate to find a way out. Asmodean entered his tent, and possibly used saidin to restrain him. He then offered him a way out, and said that he could give him the marks. Couladin accepted, as he was more ambitious than fearful of a male channeler.
Some questions I have...
1. Do you think Couladin ever worked out that this was one of the Forsaken, or did Asmodean reveal his true identity?
2. Was Couladin a darkfriend, or did he perhaps embrace the Shadow in return for the gift?
3. Do you agree with my assessment of how Couladin and Asmodean interacted, or did it occur in another way? Was Sevanna involved, or even Lanfear?

Worst, pointless, and most dragged out plot line of all time *NM*

It probably has something to do with ji'e'toh but I forget exactly what it is

seems far more likely that Asmodean just laid some Compulsion on Couladin

I hate the Shaido far more than Perrins reaction to their kidnapping of Faile.
