This is a "catch-all" advantage that can be used whenever it is needed. For instance, if your parents were travelling merchants, you could reasonably claim to have two or three "native" languages. But that is clearly an unusual background, which costs points. In general, any time a player comes up with a "character story" that would reason-ably give him some special benefit, the GM should allow this, but re-quire Unusual Background to cover it. The GM may charge extra points if he rules the background is very unusual. "Raised by aliens" or "trained from birth by a mysterious ninja cult" might be considered very unusual in most game-worlds.
