Modest in Dungeons & Dragons 5e
Modest
Overview:

Likely, you also learned a number of things, as you had the time to practice skills while not working. You could handle some amount of stress—more than the aristocracy, anyways. That said, you do demand a few select comforts.
Common examples of this background include those associated with the Diwon church, intellectual workers, and those in the navy's lower ranks.
