You were created fully formed in an outer plane, to serve a lawful good deity. This background is most suitable for an angel, but can be used for any player character race with a divine inception. As a divine servant, you have a specific reason for adventuring in the material plane away from your home. It might be a specific mission entrusted to you by a high ranking angel, or perhaps you are being punished to teach you some humility.
