The rogue learned from their mistakes and wants to walk down a better path, leaving their past behind to pick up magic; The cleric's powers were sealed by an ancient deity, and must learn the skills of a fighter. But in a pinch, these people can act on their old habits perform skills they learned from before.
Using this feat allows you to perform one skill/feature/spell or access a trait from another class that you were previously in (up to the level you were at) you cannot use this feat again until you complete a short rest.
Work with your DM to decide how you lost your access to the class your character was once in. Did they decide to pick up a new class and fade out their previous one, was a curse laid on them forcing them to choose a new class. Also, decide the extent of the lost skills. If your character had their magic sealed/cursed, depending on the type of curse, then they shouldn't be able to perform spells, or perhaps their spells work only after several minutes of focus.
