You remember these?
I almost don't. These events were not implemented properly and the success rate was pretty much always too low so I didn't bother doing them that often.
Next version will make this events more rewarding. You will always succeed and get a skill point plus some silver depending on your skill. Your morality will also improve a bit.
This will make doing these events always benefitial, unless you want to be evil.
Next new thing will be shrines.
You will be able to light the candles on these if you are member of the church faction.
But you will also be able to donate and pray / meditate on these once a week.
This will raise your mood, reastore some hitpoints and change you morality a bit.
