For development, progress and sheet etc.
I assume performance magic is Music? Social contact also should have some description of what group it relates too.
Regarding: Gentleman virtue. I have to agree with silveroak that it’s a bit problematic. The problem isn’t really coming from a noble family but rather still using the title. For a similar feel you could go with story flaws like Black Sheep/Close family ties/Heir. Could also leave it a background thing of course.
The youngest son of four sons born to a noble Florentine family, Paolo di Firenze was born into advantageous circumstances that allowed him to catch the attention of a Jerbiton maga (Eugenia) who recognized both his Gift and its gentle nature. As her apprentice, he was given opportunity to develop his particular talent with music and was trained alongside several monks developing musical traditions using musical notation and early music theory. Paolo developed, even as an apprentice, something of a rakish reputation as a troubador. His ability to combine both organized music theory with less structured troubadour music became the focus of his studies in the arts.
Paulus ex Jerbiton finds beauty in music of all kinds. He is a performer and collector of songs, willing to brave a Church to hear inventive, new music or a smoke-filled tavern or even a campfire.
