What a fantasy term means is up to the creator who uses it, it's not set in stone, should we claim that Soul Reaver makes no sense because they have a different history regarding vampires? or God of War for not sticking to the correct myths of Greek Gods? and so on...

Basically in video games, Necromancy is regarded as the (most often forbiden) dark magic that controles undeath, D&D uses it, Bardur's Gate uses it, Neverwinter Nights uses it, blah blah blah...

Also, Necromancy and Death Magic are two differnt things in Overlord, Death Magic basically relates to magic spells designed to prepare the victim for near death if not instantly kill, though still necromantic in nature they must be unlocked by a unique blend of racial and job classes.

If you still don't get it, read the D&D rule book a bit, or play Neverwinter Nights at least. Or read Overlord again and this time pay atention to the details.
