A tokolosh (often spelled tokoloshe) is actually an evil Zulu spirit. After centuries of grinding for spiritual TPE, some smarmy scientists decided that Julio's body count was actually caused by sleeping on the floors with lit fires and poor ventilation causing people to suffocate in their sleep. This lead to him getting cut from the spiritual roster, and he has been practicing hockey ever since. He comes from a lineage of hardworking cattle. At age four, Julio's father was chopped up and turned into a juicy steak. Knowledge of his tastiness has driven Julio to perform at a high level; as soon as his performance dips, he will likely be sent to the slaughterhouse.

2. Playing Career
Julio's playing career started when he was drafted 14th overall in the SMJHL draft by the Colorado Raptors. Playing reasonable minutes while putting up dismal numbers as a rookie, Julio created value with his off-ice efforts until his skills increased enough to reasonably help his team. His play style has been characterized more by his work ethic and visible efforts than it has by his on-ice success. Playing on a team that had been decimated by the expansion draft, he was asked to play hard minutes very early in his career. Even though his numbers have become respectable, as of late, the effects of the previous expansion continue to haunt the franchise. At S48's training camp, Julio will have played for 3 general managers in the same amount of seasons.

3. International Play
Julio was invited to represent the United States of America in the World Junior Classic. He was one of four rookie forwards and his ice time was reasonably overshadowed by future SJMHL hall of famers. His fourth line minutes were reasonable, but all three of them were snubbed by @TnlAstatine NHL94 sim which only featured 3 lines. After this rejection, Julio vowed to improve to the point where he could positively contribute to the program, and hopefully, one day see his pixel rendering on the twitch stream.

4. Personal Life
Plagued by his mother's personal life, Julio has had to keep his head down around the league. After the rumors pertaining to his Mrs. Tokolosh and @Lunatyck were confirmed to be true every media event became a storm of humiliating questions. Despite his minimal minutes and on-ice contributions the media scrum always demanded that Julio speak with them after practices, walkthroughs, and games. Julio has channeled his inner frustrations into his art and is a regular contributor to the league's art shows.

6. Controversy
Funneling his loneliness into his art, Julio takes a lot of pride in the artistic community. After Colorado's s46 first-round playoff exit, Julio announced that he would spend considerably more time committing to the art community than he previously had. As a graphic grader, his assessments and judgments frequently come under speculation. In s47 he was publicly accused of inconsistency.
