You were taken into a monastery at a young age to work the grounds instead of the monks so that they would have more time to train. Over the years, while everyone around you mastered the monastic arts, you mastered the janitorial ones. You were responsible for keeping the grounds orderly and for cleaning up after the monks. You were not allowed to train with or study under the monks, but by careful observation and secret deeds you were able to learn some of their ways.
