You have been in servitude for most of your life to either a lord, noble, royalty or similar. You have been used to clean, cook, greeting people, and/or washing clothes.
You have had a pretty uneventful life, perhaps under less than ideal circumstances. You have been confined, whether voluntarily or against your will, in an estate that belonged to your master and/or lady. You have served this person and their family faithfully so far.
You have now left your life of servitude. You could have left on good terms with your previous master. You could have fled the estate due to a crime that you did or a dangerous secret that you hold. Maybe the master that you served is dead and the estate burned to the ground. whether the reason, your call to adventure have led you to leave this previous life of servitude in order to embrace the life of an adventurer for a change.

You have been around nobility for a long time and have hence learned how to behave along them. You know where to look for getting knowledge about a nobel person, family, royalty or any other similar element of geneology.
However, you might be restricted from gaining certain types of knowledge without serving the nobel in question.
In addition, you can easier seek employment for nobility for temporary usage, such as for parties. At these, you might end up learning much more, since nobility don't really tend to think too much of you.
