Firstly, welcome to Ironworks [img]graemlins/wavey.gif[/img] In response to your question: Your 2 characters are probably different alignments. Every alignment gets a different set of abilities.

It's not Alignment; it's Reputation. If your Rep is 10 or above (somewhere around there), you'll get the "Good" ability, which in this case is Cure Light Wounds. If your Rep is 9 or below, you'll get the "Evil" ability, which in this case is Larloch's Minor Drain.

Welcome to the Ironworks Dragis [img]graemlins/happywave.gif[/img]
I always thought it was your alignment too, although reputation and alignment are of course quite closely bound. In any case, it's one of those two which decide the special abilities you receive. Quote:
