Ioannes 113 was a monk; in 787 he attended the Second Council of Nikaia (the Seventh Ecumenical Council) as representative of Prokopios 4, bishop of Patrai in Achaea; he is attested at the fourth and seventh sessions, on 1 October and 13 October 787, and perhaps was present at the last five sessions, from 1 October to 23 November 787: Mansi XIII 137-486. In the list of those present at the seventh session he is styled Ἰωάννου μοναχοῦ καὶ ἐκ προσώπου Πατρῶν: Mansi XIII 365. Elsewhere he is styled Ἰωάννης ταλαίπωρος καὶ ἁμαρτωλὸς μοναχός, τόπον ποιούμενος Προκοπίου τοῦ εὐλαβεστάτου ἐπισκόπου: Mansi XIII 137-40. At the fourth session he subscribed the statements read out from the Fathers in support of the veneration of icons: Mansi XIII 137-40. His name is missing from the list of those who subscribed the faith adopted by the Council at the seventh session, but he attended the session and the omission may be due to a defect in the text.
