You've always been a studious child, but it appears that you have great deal more than thought possible. You've spent hours in libraries and schools to learn your subjects to the nth degree. You're not just proficient, you're an expert! But at the same time, you aren't good at dealing with people, which sucks, especially if they're a bully. Also, you're such a nerd lol.
- Skill Proficiencies: Well..
You've got proficiency in these subjects as a result of your study: Arcana, History, Nature, Religion, Medicine, Insight, Animal Handling
You've also learned to take a punch dealing with bullies all your life (+3 to constitution stat (not exceeding 20), expertise in Survival, and advantage on constitution saving throws)
Having no social skills, you have a disadvantage on charisma saving throws and charisma related ability checks.
- Tool Proficiencies: Choose three: Alchemist's Supplies, Calligrapher's Supplies, Cartographer's Tools, Forgery Kit, Herbalism Kit, Poisoner's Kit
- Languages: Seven of your choice (at least 5 exotic languages)
- Equipment: A scholar's pack, a set of common clothes, 5 pieces of chalk, one abacus, a holy symbol, and a pouch containing 10 gp
Fellow scholars, keepers of knowledge, intellectuals, custodians of artifacts, researchers, scientists, professors, and experts of various academic fields, will recognize your love and dedicated pursuit of information, and will implicitly help you on any quest/plight and offer you whatever resources they can.
On the flip side, soldiers look down on you. they think you are too weak to survive on your own. When fighting alone against a soldier larger than you, roll to hit with a disadvantage but roll to damage with advantage since you do hate them.

This background is super broken. But at least it got a good laugh out of me and my friends.
