Heritage represents the upbringing and culture of a character. It’s what your parents, community values, or other formative authority figures taught you. Example heritages include cosmopolitan (city dwellers), grove (forest denizens), and stone (undermountain folk).
Heroic characters sometimes come from unexpected origins. Your character might have been raised among a typical community of their lineage or from a totally different life.
