[Reality] Autonomous Events

Is there any way to make a handler or something run at short intervals? calling HandleDelayedEvent() from within the handler itself might work (would it?) but the smallest resolution is 1 tick. 

e.g., what about a butler taking a player's coat about 3 seconds after they walk in? or a duck quacking every 1-8 seconds randomly?

P.S. I notice from the API docs that a tick is 10*pi seconds. Just out of curiosity, why?
