*shrug* Reviving undead doesn't help un-revive the dead. At minimum, she's bound to know more about what we're up against and give us tips; at best, she has some kind of Conjuration-Path expulsion spell.

Go back and reread the post where we met her. She doesn't know any necromany spells.

Necromancy = Conjuration but Conjuration =/= Necromancy, but sure I'll check. Regardless, my vote isn't changing because of the above.

Your vote reads as if you want to shove her in front of us and tell her to take care of the undead wolf when we full well know she can't do any necromancy.
First off:
Necromancy = Conjuration but Conjuration =/= Necromancy
Second off:
An arrow from the bow of a lightly armoured woman near the back of the combat sinks into one necromancer's throat. The robed guy goes down, one zombie dropping like its strings have been cut. The other necromancer lets out a bloodcurdling scream of rage and the other zombie slams into the archer woman. that gets... messy.

One of the archer's friends takes the zombie's head off but it's too late for the archer. There are three warriors of indeterminate allegiance and one necromancer left standing. The headless zombie is still sort-of moving around but it seems to be much less effective than before.
The necromancer proceeds to show you how it's done. Fire gathers in her palms and she hurls it at the bandit in front of her. The flames burst over his chest and his armour starts to disintegrate. He lets out a howl of horror as the leather flakes off him. The his sword rusts in his hands, reduced to a useless reddish mess that he lets fall to the ground with a thud.

"You bitch!" He howls and you sort of notice an arrow from the third bandit bounce off your helmet. The zombie flails around uselessly at the archer bandit. Well that was useful.

"Hey, necro-chan, raise one of the other dead dudes!" You are impressed by her fireball of nakedness spell but another... more competent zombie would be nice. It would at least soak up a little damage for you and necromancer-chan.

"I-I can't, I'm not that skilled yet." She, that's definitely a girl's voice, says back. Oh great, you had to come across a baby necromancer fighting a horde of bandits. Oh well, at least backstabbing her will be easier.
She can, in fact, do necromancy. She's just not able to raise people of that level (y'know like you do in these games). This of course doesn't even touch on if she can do things like "Holy Light" for making them afraid or some kind Zombie equivalent to "Banish Daedra" in Conjuration.

Third, she can still cast a fire spell and hurt the zombie wolf, so she'd be perfectly capable. Forth, I added the 4th vote line so we're fighting alongside her. FIfth, I already clarified that she could just tell us what to do if that's all. And Sixth, I'm not even the first person to vote similarly and I certainly won't be the last, but at least I'm trying to build upon it and improve the option.

I didn't see any mention of her doing necromancy or knowing any spells in it. If anything I got the feeling she had literally just started learning magic.

Read my quotes from the posts and maybe you'll understand. Except that's what you told me to do (go read the QM's posts), so I'm not going to waste more time and actually highlight it even more specifically since you missed it:
An arrow from the bow of a lightly armoured woman near the back of the combat sinks into one necromancer's throat. The robed guy goes down, one zombie dropping like its strings have been cut. The other necromancer lets out a bloodcurdling scream of rage and the other zombie slams into the archer woman. that gets... messy.

One of the two zombies is her zombie; they weren't both Thomas', or else it would have dropped instantly as his did when he died.
The necromancer proceeds to show you how it's done. Fire gathers in her palms and she hurls it at the bandit in front of her. ..."You bitch!" He howls and you sort of notice an arrow from the third bandit bounce off your helmet. The zombie flails around uselessly at the archer bandit. Well that was useful.

She's a baby necromancer, not a baby magician. She casts fire and can at least call a zombie, but that doesn't mean she can raise higher-level foes.

She had at least one zombie fighting along side her (the zombie bandit). she would have had to have raised that one herself since spell effects end on death, thus, Thomas couldn't have raised it since he was dead by then.

Also, where'd you get "just started learning magic" from? she's got a friggin disintegrate spell.

I love this vote, if I could vote this would be my vote.
[X] Necromancer interrupt!
-[X] "This is dead, it's what you do."
--[X] "We believe in you—!"
---[X] "—and we're with you the whole way!"
----[X] SUPLEX THAT MOTHERFUCKER! (If applicable)

I still stand by my vote, but if Diana really doesn't want to take a shot with us building up her morale or we can work it into our team effort, then sure.
 
How about we be a little clearer about what we actually mean, or mean to do, and avoid giving Diana the impression that suddenly everything is up to her?

[X] Turn to Diana. "Do you have any useful spells or knowledge against others' undead, as this seems to be?"
-[X] If she has any relevant advice, follow it.
--[X] If she has any particularly useful spells for it, provide her with both encouragement and support.
---[X] Otherwise, have the casters hang back and do their thing, while you charge forward and SUPLEX THAT MOTHERFUCKER!

Why are people voting for my suggestion?
Because people vote for troll/joke/or just not well thought out votes all the time for various reasons.
