Before the Klerkenshoop plague he was described by old friends as a cheerful, outgoing person who was always fond of the company of others. Although he was also somewhat stubborn and certainly very arrogant during this time. But after the Klerkenshoop plague, Broyo was reduced to a quiet and withdrawn man.

He is especially sarcastic towards his nephew, Hera Silverhand, whom he ridicules on multiple occasions for being obsessed with nature. 
== Biography ==
=== Early Life ===
Broyo was born to Dixon Silverhand and Allryria Kaerfels as Miksa Silverhand's younger brother, although he would never get to know his parents or his brother until much later as his parents would die when he was young and he was soon separated from his older brother. Broyo was sweapt away after the Cliffton Peaks Estate was set on fire and lived most of his late childhood in a cramped room dug into the mountains of Meteora in the former Kingdom of Kastollia; Miksa on the otherhand, was neatly relocated to Daelyria City. This would affect a young Broyo greatly, without any parents or his brother to teach him the good and the bad, he would turn towards thievery as a means to eke out a living. He mostly stole food and some coins from time to time until he was eventually caught by a man named Hemanoid who offered Broyo a job to make concrete for consturction projects around Kastollia. Broyo eagerly accepted this job as he desired an honest job, which was something he never had, this job was the beginning of his long journey towards an honest and fulfilling life. 
=== Teenage Years in Meteora ===
Broyo began to show his high work ethic during his first few weeks working the concrete job, producing entire barrels of white concrete in a day. Hemanoid was surprised by the young man's eagerness and efficiency towards work, paying him a bonus amount of money for the quick completion of his tasks. This was the first real and clean amount of money he had ever received in his life. However, the young man was a financially irresponsible person, as he would spend nearly all of his money on alcohol in a town called Orientem. Meanwhile, Hemanoid had recommended him to King Jayhawk of Kais-Adonia, the king had taken an interest in the boy and set out to meet him personally. The pair would find Broyo, a drunken mess, in the alleyways of Orientem. The king simply handed him the deed to a plot of land in the harbor town of Azuirs and left without saying a word. After this debacle, Hemanoid would berate Broyo for his behavoir which served as a wake up call for the young man and planted the first seeds of maturity in him. 
=== Life in Azuirs and Final Years in Kastollia ===
After settling into Azuirs, the young man got to work building a home, his first ever proper home. He continued to work for Hemanoid for a couple more years until he had made enough money to stand on his own. After saving up enough money to start a fishery-farming business in Azuirs, Broyo bid Hemanoid goodbye and comfortably live out an idle farmer-fisherman's life in Azuirs; building a park (with the help of SchtinkyPete), a workshop and improving the town's harbor. Eventually, Broyo grew tired of this idle life and set out to find anything that would give him the same rush he felt working for Hemanoid. 
=== Meeting Miksa Iceborn Silverhand, Building Klerkenshoop and Trauma ===
At some point, Broyo began espousing his desires to build a town to call his own, his would go to bars and would drunkenly rant about his little dream. Eventually Miksa Iceborn Silverhand, who had regained his royal status at this point, caught wind of this and approached Broyo with a proposition to repair the ruins of an old town called "Painfield" in the then-Mithran Archonate of Magna Ataraxia. Broyo quickly accepted this proposal and set off towards cold Cliffton to build his town with a group of settlers he recruited from towns across Kastollia. Upon arriving at the ruins of Painfield, Broyo and his band of settlers immediately struggled with pushing out the squatters occupying the ruins as well as the harsh weather of the much colder Clifftonian coast. Once the squatters were out of the way and the first camps were built, Broyo would officially found the town of Klerkenshoop (Klerk's Hope), named after a recently deceased settler by the name of Klerk who had died fending off the squatters. The group spent the first few months removing shacks, repairing the walls, patching up the landscape, building streets and houses. Eventually Klerkenshoop grew in size and population during the years of the Helmian Federation, being classified as a town by the Federation, but a sudden plague outbreak would hit the town killing 70% of the population. Those killed during the plague were many of Broyo's close friends which caused him to break down and go through a major personality shift, causing him to become more withdrawn from people along with his cheerful nature being shattered. 
=== Involvement in the Third Halondian Rebellion ===
Broyo had never involved himself in the matters of politics at all, not even once in his life. Even when the Kingdom of Mithra was reorganized into the Helmian Federation he simply stood idly by without giving it much thought. But with the Third Halondian Rebellion, it was different, this time his friends Miksa, SchtinkyPete and even his homeland of Kastollia was fighting in it. He would eventually cave to his soft spot for Kastollia and supported the rebellion in secret. Although his role was "embarrasingly small and insignificant" as he would personally describe it; all he did was provide the rebellion with some information prior to the Battle of Illerya. But in the end the rebellion would succeed, opening another chapter in Helmia's history and Broyo's life. 
=== Rediscovering family lineage and tenure as Archon of Cliffton ===
The new government of Helmia, now know as the Dominate of Helmia (later 2nd High Kindgom of Daelyria) decided that Broyo's commitment to Helmia and his actions during the rebellion had deemed him fit for the office of Archon for the Archonate of Cliffton. Miksa Iceborn Silverhand, Undye and Loreth Gilroch was also the major driving force in pushing for Broyo's ascension to the position, which caused Broyo to reluctantly accept the position which he deemed himself unworthy of. After becoming Archon, Broyo would interact with Miksa much more often which eventually confirmed Miksa's suspicion that Broyo was indeed his long lost brother and after revealing this information to Broyo, the two would reunite and Broyo would officially rejoin the Silverhand family as Miksa's younger brother.
