Kelgore's Grave Mist
(Player's Handbook II)

Conjuration/Necromancy [Cold]
Level: Sorcerer 2, Wizard 2,
Components: V, S, M,
Casting Time: 1 standard action
Range: Medium (100 ft. + 10 ft./level)
Area: 20-ft. radius spread, 20 ft. high
Duration: 1 round/level
Saving Throw: None
Spell Resistance: See text

With a gesture, you create a cloud of clammy, thin mist.
The light in the area seems to dim as the mist appears, and a slight wind washes over the area, sending a chill down your spine.
This spell creates a thin mist within the spell's area.
The mist is too thin to have any effect on vision, but the necromantic energy infused within it hampers the living.
All living creatures within the mist become fatigued and take 1d6 points of cold damage per round.
If the spell fails to overcome a creature's spell resistance, the subject takes the cold damage but ignores the fatigue.
Material Component: A handful of dirt taken from a graveyard or tomb.

[Inevitability]

It is a necromancy spell, so no, you cannot use the spell.

The fact that you're specialized in conjuration is irrelevant, because specialization doesn't affect what spells you are able to cast: whereas banning necromancy directly prevents you from casting certain spells.

From PHB2, page 95:

Effects that prevent a spellcaster from accessing one school of a dual-school spell prevent all access to that spell.

Not being able to use it is as written but is it as intended? It has the look of an oversight.
