Andrew Jacob Skrelli was the senator from Pennsylvania. Sister Agnostina attempted to corrupt him in order to farm the small motes of time that came from his constituency losing hope. Proving to be incorruptible, Agnostina hires a subcontractor, a parasite, Dyzeps. Dyzeps finds it difficult to control his body and finds this alluring, so decides to woo Skrelli, in an attempt to win him over.
Eventually, Dyzeps riding around in Skrelli's body run into Abbess Anin and says that they wish for symbiosis. She grants this to them, with Skrelli in charge yet in constant pain. This leads to a change in party affiliation, a private breakup with his wife, and an affair with a young campaign staffer. (PROSE: The Sisters Of The Little Moments)
