In my D&D game, I have a altered part of the activities so some of the downtime has changed to reflect this.

Mystara of the Five Spheres - Downtime Event of Sacred Rites for Mystara

USES ONE OF THE DOWNTIME ACTIVITIES FOR THE DURATION

Downtime activity for a pious character to spend time between adventures performing sacred rites in a temple affiliated with a god he or she follows. Between rites, the character spends time in meditation and prayer.

Leading the Rite - A character who is religious as associated to the relgious community in the settlement can lead these rites, which might include weddings, funerals, and ordinations. A layperson can offer sacrifices in a temple or assist a priest with a rite. Your lifestyle costs will be covered as if you were under comfortable conditions.

Check - A character who spends a week performing sacred rites can make a skill check, usually Intelligence (Religion) check or a Charisma (Persuasion) check. A natural 1 makes the events a failure. A natural 20 provides you with a connection related to the event. You can take a complication instead of the result. Settlement modifier might apply.

For the check you can choose any of the skills you can convince the GM is appropiate for the check.
